Thanks for the "plug", Bruno! I sincerely hope that there will be a lot of responses to my and Tony's (and others) suggestions for style/registration ideas,etc. I think the 6500 and 7000 keyboards have so much potential for great sound structures and many of us (at least me ) find it hard to understand all the things that can be done using Panel memory and the various other parts of the technical side of the instrument. I enjoy playing for myself and would love to play for others (especially you folks on the Forum site, via BEBOP, etc.), but I usually just play and use Easy Record to try to retain what I am playing, especially my original songs. Being a rank amateur, however, it takes me a l-o-n-g time to get a perfect recording because there is no way to edit in Easy record and I haven't yet figured out how to really use the other recording methods. Also, I can set up a song using one touch play, using the automatic setups for each rhythm group, or picking a variety of sound(s) from within the sound groups but, although I hear the melodies and chord harmonies in my "play-by-ear" head, I really don't know what instrumental sounds compliment what other sounds in setting up R1, R2, Left, TechniChord, Performance Pads, etc. Nor do I really understand how the Sequencer, Music Style Arranger, etc. work! It seems the more I read the instruction manuals, the less I know! So, thanks for the encouragement, Bruno. I hope there will be a lot of responses from the experts here who understand all the intricate workings of the wonderful 6500/7000 keyboards!!!
