Well Ian, if the OP deigns to explain dissin' me, and maybe even an apology...then this owner MAY consider doing just that.

Dennis


Dennis, all I can say is I heard no disrespectful words about you from the OP, who was doing his very best to help you with a new instrument.

If you felt you were disrespected, then you should take this up personally, and in private, with the OP, who, as far as I know, was not aware this was happening.

Ian



Hey m8, don't sweat it...It don't jar me none at all!!

This is about it for SZ posting for me for a while again...just busy with other stuff

There just certain types of chords an arranger not going to understand. Try playing a montuno pattern on full keyboard setting and see what happens.

so all the hoopla about "Rootless chord" recognition on some of these arrangers is a myth or does it really work?

BTW, Paul, I really enjoyed your two recorded pieces that Larry uploaded...exceptional playing, slick arranging, and the vocals were excellent.

Well thank you so much Ian for taking the time to listen. I wish I could go to one of your Tyros 4 clinics. As far as I know we have nothing like that down here:(

I may be the only one doing this live---but, I gig on a S910 with the auto rhythms (songs) already sequenced and stored on a USB drive. That frees up both hands for soloing, etc.. Works great in my situation. Played for 300 people tonight with a drummer and horn man. Worked like a charm.

Donny: the specific 'rootless chords' voicings I outlined over the years here works fine, and in all 12 keys. cool
These are 3 note altered versions of the most commonly understood & played by jazz pianists II-V-I '4 note' rootless jazz chord voicings (both A & B variety)
of which I've repeatedly outlined in detail, and now supported on Technics, Yamaha, Ketron and Korg arrangers.

Of course there will probably be other variations of rootless chords that aren't recognized, but until an arranger manufacturer adds a custom 'user definable' chord recognition palette feature,
I seriously doubt these will be added to the existing palette, especially if the chords already serve a duo function recognizing the chord voicing as something far more commonly understood. Because of this limitation, the addition of a "Chord Sequencer" is a good way to get around that problem. - Scott smile

Scott was kind enough to call me and explain to me the types of rootless chords that work on Yamaha and how he sets of the spilt points. It does work fine however there are so many types of rootless chords and some could be interpreted in so many ways. A chord sequencer would free me up so much!

Exactly Larry Styles, CS, SMF's are ALL just variations of SMF...
how you operate them is up to the player.
