Hello to you all!
This is my first posting, although I’ve been reading this site for a long time. Your thoughts and comments helped me a lot in exploring arranger keyboard world. In the past I used strictly synths with sounds only for gigs with live bands.
I got stuck between SD1 and 9000 PRO and now I look for those slight differences that will give one of them the advantage. In store near me I can test 9000 PRO but I can’t get my hands on SD1 so I would like to ask those lucky guys that have tested both arrangers in details if they could help me with following questions:
1. 9000 PRO harmonizer has about 60 different harmony types prepared. How many are there on SD1?
2. One or more tracks from a midi file can be assigned to 9000 PRO vocoder to sing along with main vocal. Can this be done on SD1 vocoder?
3. A second sound can be faded in or out with a pedal. For example while playing a piano sound on 9000 PRO, a string sound can softly be added or removed with a pedal when needed. Can SD1 do that? For me this is a very useful feature.

When I have one of those two, I’ll be glad to share my experiences with you.
Thank you for any information.
