Diki,
"My approach is simply to pick what 'sounds' best in the basic areas (drums, piano, organ, meat and potato stuff) and then, if it isn't GREAT OOTB, tweak it until it is. Hence, the ease and speed of the tweaking tools are one of my primary considerations."
I want to trust you. So let's say I take a G70 out of the box and it's brand new. I call up a 16beat style and don't like the way it sounds. Please explain the steps to change simple things such as type of voice used ( drums included) and change effects such as panning, chorus , delay etc...for every variation - intro's endings included. Once the changes are made where is the style saved and how easy is it to call up the style, once it has been changed.
I'll be back sometime tomorrow to read the steps.
Thanks.
