Rikki and friends, we can go the tech. route, or we search and search for the right style – and they are good things. People who are having difficulties in life normally look outside themselves for an answer. It is the same for this topic.
Hi John,
For me it’s more of a case of fascination with the instrument ie how far one can go with the styles.
The onboard styles , quite frankly ,are never programmed to their full potential.
Most of the psr onboard styles I’ve used are only 2 to 4 bar loops.
Supposedly they can be up to 32 bars.
Maybe there is some sort of memory constraint that doesn’t actually allow larger files with 32 bars, that I don’t know, haven’t tried experimenting, yet.
Band in a Box and I , go way back to when it was first released, back in the 90’s.
I’ve mainly used it as a source for potential styles for an arranger keyboard, be it my Technics, Roland , Yamaha, Ketron and Korgs. Been thru the lot over the years.
I’ve always found ways of converting styles from one brand keyboard to another, (and I don’t mean using EMC style works) but getting a good style from BIAB has been elusive, so every now and again I drag it out and try some new ideas.
Time wasting exercise, for sure, but I’ve always had plenty of it . Haha
