Sorry, Bill, but there are plenty of polyphonic SA sounds (Ian loves those organs!). And there are plenty of solo lines in some styles...

All a style Part does is play a part that someone played on the keyboard. If an SA Tone can respond to the keyboard, it can respond to the RECORDING (SMF) of someone playing on the keyboard. If you use a T3 with a sequencer, you can still use SA Tones (right?).

Why can't the style section (which is, in essence, a little MIDI file player) play SA tones if the regular sequencer can?

I don't think you guys have thought this through...

Now, if I was a conspiracy nut, I MIGHT be thinking that there's no reason whatsoever why Yamaha couldn't do this right now, but they are keeping it 'locked up' so they can suck more of your money out of you at a later date by bringing out the T4 or T5 (why rush it, anyway? ) with this feature FINALLY 'unlocked'...

But that would just be me being paranoid, wouldn't it?
