Hello Jose' and others ,
I would like to point out a few features that have been incorporated in the XD9 . PLAY CONTROL and LEFT CONTROL
Ketron eliminated buttons that were usually assigned for pianist , pattern edit , harmony , aftertouch ( not available XD series) ,portamento ( not on XD) found on the X1 + SD1 . These options are now hidden under PLAY CONTROL + LEFT CONTROL feature .
Bassist is under Left contol as an example.
Drum remix feature , pianist modes are now found under play control !
Having more sub menu's ( pages) and utilizing the Function buttons was the goal !
Perhaps we will see more of this in future developments ! dano
