Hi Dan01,
it took a while to get used to the navigation system, it is different,
but I don't quite agree that style editing is not lacking.

There is no way of event list editing a style track, which when it comes to converted styles is almost a neccesity.
EMC doesn't always get it right.
Can't understand why Ketron don't put out some sort of software editing package.

As for the Audya loops, is it some sort of a time slice function or something? Sounds fascinating either way.

I've never come across slicing function till I got my PA800. It slices drum loops & then I can use midi to alter the rhythm. To what extent naturally depends on the complexity of loop in the first place.


best wishes
Rikki

That being said, I think many people have this impression that Ketron has poor navigation and editing is lacking .


With Audya, they are using midi as the map to change multiple audio loops in real time , which is not currently done on any arranger keyboard.

Midi is numbers vs. audio is realistic. Sampling a guy or girl playing guitar is better than using numbers to create that strum....It's getting the multiple samples at the same time, change in real time. That is the trick. Answer ? Use midi to manipulate audio. Hence, Audya !
