Have you tried Roland's full Pianostyle Mode, with the Dynamic Arranger on, and used the Chord Sequencer, while you play some tasty audio loops in sync with the style?

Thing is, until you try the NEW stuff that Roland have added, you aren't getting the full package. For instance, you need an expression pedal to get the best out of the B3 sim. You need an FC-7 pedal to get the best from the BK-9, freeing up your hands to PLAY, rather than be constantly pressing buttons (that alone can make a radical improvement in live ease of use) and you need an iPad to get the ease of access to the synth parameters and programming and easy Performance and sound selection (but a BK-9 and an iPad is still thousands less than a T5-76).

If you can pin down what it is that is slowing you down on the BK-9, I'll be happy to help you find a solution or workaround.
