I am very close to understanding how to have my songs cued up on the arranger with a combination of basic accompaniments and what might be called pre-recorded arrangements that don't switch with chord changes by using split point variations - allowing me to play two handed as I am accustomed to as strictly an instrumental jazz guy. I am still hammering out the basic switch mechanisms so there is absolutely no gap as one might have when switching between sequencer and full arranger play.

How many measures can be used to make a intro on a VA7 or VA76 ? are you saying 64 measures ?
Can you jump back to the customized intro on the VA series ?

This is the key in my opinion . There is no delay going to another style after the intro plays out ! If you are able to jump back to an introduction , while it is playing out ....you could improvise any thing you want above the split point . You could even jump back 2 or 3 times . I do not think the VA will allow this without using a tremendous amount of registrations . Be careful ! dano

You could also record everything directly to the hard drive on the SD1 . With JUMPs and everything being recorded !
