Guys don't take this personally, but playing all night long with just arranger auto play styles, will bore my audiences to death..

My venues want to have a tune recognizable to them.."like the record"....Sure auto play arranger method can work here or there, but it would never carry a night, where I play...

When I usually use the arranger .it is stripped down or auto stuff except for drums..turned off..

A one hour gig , maybe will work playing arranger only, but not my jobs..with the band or solo..

I am sure if you ask others that play the same type of jobs..they will "amen" me...

Ask UD or Donny....we need to use all the tools...and SMF's are a major tool..
