The older version!!

I tend to be a bit of a minimalist when it comes to styles Rikki, so I don't really need a lot of editing.

Personally I hate using "generic" onboard styles to try and cover several songs. To me, even though the song changes, it still SOUNDS the same.

I'd rather have styles that TOTALLY represent the original song (well as much as humanly possible). It's one of the reasons I use so many midis with jump points. Very accurate representations of songs.

With the styles I want to try to only include enough to distinguish the song if it has particular hooks (you know, bass lines certain drum patterns etc etc), or otherwise pretty much just bass/drums and maybe one guitar track..the rest I try to play myself.

I have been mucking around with some of the available Yamaha styles that have been setup to play specific songs, (Gary Diamonds are about the best I have heard!!) and because of these I am starting to warm more to playing shows using styles instead.

Hence the questions about EMC as I want to try and convert these to the Korg.

And if that's not enough, I am then going to work on getting the Motif ES rack setup to be used as the sound source for all the Korg styles...That will be a huge job!! BUt with the sound of the Yammi it shoud be awesome and therefore worth it!!
