DNJ, is like a kid[again]..exploring his new "toy"..He has a day and a half to get it ready for the "Dance"....

Fran,

I give him two days and he will be back in his Yamaha comfort zone.

Tom

SD1 and a pair of 450s... oh boy! There'll be no turning back.

Hopeless...

But why has he purchased a board that came out long before the 3000? (The SD1 is 5 or 6 years old now)

Bill

Because he CAN !!!
t.

SD1 plus


Bill, maybe because it is way better than the PSR3000..Some folks even think it is better than the Tyros2..

Way to go, Donny. I'm sending my deposit for the SD-5 on Monday. AJ will help with set-up, etc.

My first Solton (Ketron) was an auto orchestra I used with guitar in the 80's. Control box and 13 note bass pedals. Held the right bass note with your left foot and used your right toe and heel on the volume pedal for minors, 7ths, etc. Still have it around here somewhere.

Thanx capt......just got in from the Sd1+ maiden voyage gig.....had to break her cherry on stage.......went off without a hitch less the 24 hrs after I got ithere... spent all night doing my homework on it but It was worth it .....it really sounds awesome!

More to come as I go along so far I'm very happy.

Good luck with your new Sd5 also.

Any takers on how long before dnj sells it and goes back to the PSR?

My take is three weeks (or however long he's got before the store won't take it back!)...

C'mon, let's get a pool going....

All in fun, Donny, all in fun......

Congratulations Donny,
I just got back from vacation. What a surprise. Sd's have a bit of a learning curve but they do sound great (especially the drums).
Hope you enjoy your new keyboard.

best wishes

Hi Rikki.....

It's an awesome KB 36lbs with the smallest footprint in its class......so far I've done 5 gigs with it and it is really growing on me ......the 76 semi weighted keys are a big plus, besides the great "LIVE" in your face KETRON styles & sounds.....OS is a no brainer for me ....since I've owned the X1/XD9/Midjay
I'm very glad I got it....more to come....

Hi Donny,
I knew you had the Midjay, wasn't aware you had the X1 & XD9 as well at an earlier stage.
Sure hope you do some demo's at some stage, I used to enjoy your Midjay demo's.

Personally I found I had a bit of a learning curve with my SD1+ , but in my case it was the first Ketron I'd ever owned, & the manual at times was as clear as mud . The SD does so much.

Prior to going away, I'd finally managed to sort out one of my pet peeves as far as style editing goes using EMC, ie
I missed the event list editing of styles some of my prior keyboards had, but using a combination of EMC software & a pc sequencer I can now edit to my hearts content. haahaa)

best wishes
