Hello Rob in Australia !
How's the weather ?
We're expecting more snow tonight here in Baltimore .
I would recommend using a computer and software for sequencing . A $60.00 version of Cubasis software will do more than any sequencer you'll find on an arranger keyboard .
Your statements about morphing I found interesting .
How about having a keyboard that would allow you to substitute a sequenced drum track, with one of the drum tracks of a style ?
This would allow you to have a reggae beat with "yesterday" or a cha cha beat with an elvis song . DRUM REMIX = Ketron XD9
You can edit sequences all in real time as it plays directly from the hard disk (optional) or floppy disk . Save your edits instantly on the hard drive .
You can also removed all parts except for drums and bass with one button . You can also remove the bass part of a sequence all in real time .
See if you can find the Ketron XD9 and compare . If not , I would definately recommend the TYRO's over the PA80 .
