Very interesting indeed after 54 years of living I learn things everyday and every night. Some good, some not so good

I believe in the Italian neighborhood I grew up in Providence. My coombahs use to say "Scorch a Ball" Pretty much translates to " Ball Buster"

That's one high horse you ride on Donny

Donny, I think you've got a vividly wild imagination to have "read that" into what I actually said.

Re-reading my posting, I find NOTHING in my comments suggesting my keyboard (Tyros2), though admittedly my current fav, is any better than yours, or anybody elses. I've acknowledged from the onset, that it's not a question of mines better than yours, but about discovering which kb best suited for one's individual personal playing style. I've now had a chance to audition & play ALL the major top arranger contenders out there (GEM Genesys, Korg PA1X, Ketron SD1+ w/EXP, Ketron SD5, Ketron Midjay, Roland G70, and Yamaha Tyros2), and expressing my personal subjective impressions & comparisons (both strengths & weaknesses).

Donny: Back on the the subject of 'mines better than yours', What I find interesting is that even though you haven't actually played them all yourself (correct me if I'm wrong), you've already expressed, as evidenced in your postings, strong opinions about them, both PRO: SD1+ w/ EXP, and CON: Tyros2 (particularly). Also, because a picture's (or in this case the music) is worth a thousand words, how about posting some more impressive song demos produced with your Midjay and Roland A37 controller. I'd especially love to hear the Midjay's 'acoustic piano' patch played live & recorded via your Roland A37. Scott

Right, but no idea how many ms... VERY minimal, and only on some very busy patterns.

Hi Glenn,
the minor bit of latency on busy styles ,is it mainly on styles that use new sample voices ( by that I mean sounds that aren't part of the original sd1)
or styles that maybe have a lot of program changes throught the variations, fills etc


best wishes

The latter. Some of the older ROM styles.
