(I like to keep several swing styles all next to each other in the style list, so even more variety can be added as the song goes along).
Try doing ANY of that with a sequence!
My point exactly! So, why link them to a particular song in the first place, unless you wanted the specific arrangement?
I'm a fan of all the tools at my fingertips, and I think this particular one is best used on the fly. Chocolate and Vanilla ... maybe!
Nothin' but love for ya, guys.
I think the scenario where you would like to have the chords for a section already linked and ready to go would be for a section of a song that you HAVEN'T already played, but need to start soloing on it immediately... Or, for instance, you want to play guitar or horn over the tune, but still want control over the structure.
But I'm still a bit confused by the above post. I'm still not sure you get that the CS is the chords ONLY. NOT the fills, NOT the variations, NOT the changes to different styles. JUST the chords, and nothing BUT the chords.
So, each time you use it, you can still make it utterly different from the last time, you can still respond to your whims or the crowd's mood, and you can go into it and out of it on the fly seamlessly, so there is absolutely NOTHING the same from one performance to the next.
It is so utterly different to an SMF, I fail to see how you don't grasp this.
