No, not Off-topic, but my latest tune on the PSR3K, called Traffic Lights. The title just came to me while I was making the arrangement.
You can download it HERE
It's called trafficlights_MP3Pro.mp3.
Needless to say it's an MP3Pro file.

I used the style R&Bballed with voices GrandPiano (only in the intro), flugelhorn, SuitcaseEP, Muted Trumpet and SaxSextion+TenorSax.
I used several Multipads I made myself too (flugelhorn and muted trumpet). Other than in "Funkypads" in this new tune, these are sequences in the key I am playing in, so they are not good for anything else (sorry!). I find Multipads very usefull for small sequences (fill-in melodies and such) and even longer sequences, like I use in the Love Boats theme song (counter melodie).

I played it many many times, and everytime I made a mistake, like: a wrong chord, a multipad at the wrong moment, didn't press a variation for a fill in, didn't change a variation in time, aso.
So I recorded it three times on the onboard sequencer and played them back into the computer, and edited it with wavelab. It's still not good, but it has to do.
Comments are welcome.
Somehow I don't like the ending.

I've been getting a lot of use from that R&B Ballad pattern too. Gives a fresh, new feel to some tried and true songs that I do.
