Hello people!

I´m looking for some funky, smooth jazz styles (ala Dave Koz, Rippingtons, Spyrogyra, EWF, Eric Marienthal, etc. etc)

Could anybody help me?

Thanks!

Jo

PS: Yes, finally I got a Tyros4, after a HUGE dissapointment with Audya4. Great, great styles but overall operation and right hand sounds, nah...

There aren't many custom styles for Contemporary Jazz, but there are some very good onboard styles that I use for smooth jazz songs. I've had to make my own for songs like Cold Duck Time, etc.

Sorry I can't advise you ... but just wanted to say you have great taste in smooth jazz. These are all long time favorites of mine and have seen all these artists you mention play live on numerous occasions. I would definately buy an arranger if it had styles that worked for The Rippingtons.
