Hi Dan
I liked your tact in not going head to head with "the other software". I am on the fence about that, but, fortunately, having an SD2 makes it more cost efficient for me.

I can attest to the marvelous sounds in the SD2, and congratulate you in unlocking it's power. Having used it with a controller was fine,as far as it went, but we all know we couldn't access the goodies very easily without some heavy midi controller knowledge that I do not possess.

I guess the main question for myself, is how much more cumbersome it is versus a good arranger. I guess you have one click saves for reg's, and a playlist feature is coming soon. I probably am missing something, but I can't see myslf fiddling with a mouse or poking a laptook screen too many times while I am performing.

I would love to be proven wrong, as it may be an answer to some of my Nursing home gigs.
