DNJ, Nothing....Everyone has different reasons why they do what they do. Or why they buy what they buy...If I did STANDARDS I would use an ARRANGER differently...I rarely do a cover song & when I do, it is mostly in a Church setting

I use the Arranger KB in 5 primary ways

1. Compose songs

2. Get Arrangement "ideas"

3. Record songs

4. "live" onstage as a one man performer sitting at the Piano. Everyone in the audience knows visually it is either an Arranger function going on or some Pre-recorded/sequenced music going while I play a PIANO part. I do not use Right Hand sax, flute, or elec guitar etc.on stage. Only PIANO.

5. "live" onstage playing "live" acoustic guitar, while the ARRANGER plays my "Sequenced/Style PRE-RECORDED I play acoustic guitar & sing...

I personally don't use a sax, electric guitar, flute right hand etc. I just don't. For my music I just can't use that stuff. My music "live" onstage, it doesn't work out very well on MY MUSIC...So I strip it down. BUT I DIDN'T BUY AN ARRANGER TO DO STANDARDS, like most everyone else does..They have their reasons to drop 4K on a keyboard, & so do I....

Good thing the Korg PA 4X doesn't have a USE ONLY AS DIRECTED notation in the Manual...

DNJ, thanks for your help on "Cry of the Young". You really were a great sounding board as I worked through the tune

I LOVE THIS FORUM & I LOVE ARRANGERS....
