One of the things that gives me pause about all the ‘possible’ chords types all the audio tracks COULD play is that even Ketron themselves seem not to have the financial resources to have a pretty comprehensive selection on most factory styles.
This is quite understandable, can you imagine the studio time (money!) this would take, or the cost of employing a first call drummer, bassist and guitarist for recording that comprehensive chord selection? For EVERY style (over 400 of them)…?
Now imagine the hurdles to the average arranger user to assemble those assets…
I’m afraid that this is just one of those ‘features’ that sound fantastic on paper, but very difficult to use practically. Even adding chord types to ROM styles that lack a certain chord type you really need for a specific song is going to be a nightmare as you struggle to find a guitarist that can nail the sound of the guitarist used in the original, with the same guitar, amp and effects (if any).
Bottom line, if Ketron couldn’t afford to do it, is there anyone here who thinks they can?
