Thanks guys . Lots of thoughtful input in your posts.Yes when i used Styles more as when I was doing gigs I did edit them. Replace instruments, mute parts, adjust volume and EFX. Mostly to get more punch and simplicity so they wouldn't sound so "canned" Your right about the 1% of users delving deeply into their boards.
I have a friend here who spends countless hours revamping and creating styles on his Yamaha. His band ( wife singer with a Keytar and a killer sax player ) have a regular gig at a club " Ruby Lee's on Hilton Head SC "which caterers mostly to an older Black audience. So he's going from Chuck Brown go go to Frankie Beverly to Neyo and they love it.
But for most of us Roland did give us a decent group of Styles to sork with. After looking at the E50 Style list and listening to a few I think I could find whatever I need but again thats down the road, I'm staying put for now. ! Thanks
