When is Fran expecting his microArranger?

Or, did he get it already?

Some people just want to do things their own way, I guess, John.

I'd hate to see them return or sell instruments that could have been made to sound at their best with just a little touch of expertise.

Hi Donny

Glad you decided to keep the micro I went out yesterday and bought one on the strenth of your recommendation (LOL). I'm led to believe one of the first in the UK. Seriously I have had a good day sorting and adapting the styles to match as close as I can to the Pa2x styles we use normally.

The rig is now MicroArranger + Harmony M + Shure WH20, first gig tomorrow. I'll do my best to record as much as I can and "IF" it sounds Ok I'll post the results (Fingers Crossed)

Having owned Korg keyboards for many years the operating system wasn't to much of a problem though not having a touch screen certainly was a change. Up to now the small keys are not proving a problem at all.

Doing a direct comparison with some of the styles on the Pa2x, about half a dozen of the styles we use are the same on both boards, to my ears there is very little difference which is pleasant suprise it makes the change over a lot simpler.


I'll see what tomorrow brings

Regards

Col

Hi Ian,
by sounds of things it might have been a spur of the moment decision to sell.

Sorry Donny, you can speak for yourself, but i think maybe you've been getting a bit frustrated over a particular issue.

http://www.synthzone.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/336124/2/KORG_help_to_assign_a_leslie_r

I for one, every now & again do a bit of a dummy spit & wonder why I bother when I can't do something I want.
I pack the dam thing up & don't go near it for a week or until such time as I have a brainstorm & attack it from a different angle. I don't dare sell my keyboard, as I may not be allowed to replace it haahaa.

The leslie issue, no one to date has been able to help.

Rikki you hit it right on the head darthvader .....& I also appreciate all your help also thank you...I have no patience with gear which is nothing new.. whistle in fact the scenario inspired me to bring the KMA into the studio and tweak/edit a few styles make some very good performances to my liking for stage use I'm now halfway done with my setup......for me at this time the KMA is going top make a solid backup KB.
