You didn’t say what did the drums, chas, but next time you want to noodle, try that BK7M of yours again. On the whole, the drums flow pretty well, the fills usually work pretty well, and if you have an FC7 (or a MIDI foot controller) you can easily move from variation to variation with fills (or without) hands free…

Thanks for the comments, glad you took it all positively (the way it was meant!). As a long time band player, I’ve always leaned pretty heavily on getting my groove from the drummer. One thing I learned was, even when the drummer is wrong, it’s almost impossible to fight it, so when playing with machines, the drums are right or EVERYTHING is wrong!

As I’ve said many times, treat the backing as if it’s as important as you… Because it is! Music is the sum of its parts. If one of them is weak, it drags everything down. And who wants to be dragged down by a machine?! 😎🎹
