I'm a new 9000pro owner and have been discovering some technique changes that I'll be needing to learn with the new keyboard. I really liked the architecture of Band-in-a-Box (BB, old DOS version), and I'm hoping to replace it with the 9000pro.
1) In BB, you could quickly type in the chord progressions, fills, variations, then apply the style. On the 9000 is there a way to do this? It seems that song record lays down everything, note-for-note, so that it's impossible to change a style, or to add a fill in this particular measure.
2) In step mode, how do you start recording the intro without notes? It seems like you have to press keys in order to get events in the list.
