Theer is a mic input and some basic vocal effects, no harmonizer. I find it very useful to have a mic volume and mic effect control right on the LH side of the board.

I think it was a cost issue as with the touch screen idea. Let the user choose which outboard vocal processor they like, ( and from the demos I've heard Rolands is very good ) and add an IPAD for the touch screen. Still trying to get the correct cable to hook my IPAD up with the BK9.
I really don't miss that at all because when I'm working I'm not changing things that much during a song. Volume control for parts mainly and that can be done on the fly with the drawbars.

Thanks for the quick reply, Bill. It's a shame that key change is not recognized by the Chord Sequencer...maybe there is a possible fix.

It would be nice if the other effects could be set pre or post Leslie...some work better before the rotary than after.

When talking about adding another Roland keyboard to a yamaha arranger, you could also opt for Fa06 or Fa08 which are both cheeper then bk9 but have more to offer soundwise.. More supernatural acoustic sounds, super natural synth sounds, an awesome arpeggiator, 2 virtuall expansion slots... 6 knobs for direct controll over your sounds.. A nice sequencer, and a delicious little sampler

However, its either 61 or 88 keys, and does not have arranger functions.. But then, you allready own a yamaha arranger..

Well, there is a mic input and vocal processor, but no harmonizer.

Bachus

Good thoughts, except the Hammond sounds with a believable sim was my main attractiom. I have a Neo Vent, but of no use on a MOTL keyboard without direct outs.

Other than that, it is a good idea.

Hi

Are we discussing "Songstyles or generalstyles..." or "BK9" here...?
