My favorite feature was the PA4X ability to make me realize I didn't need it. wink

Dave, Donny, if you guys ever learn the in and outs of the Korg, we can have an old fashion shootout with the lowly E-A7 grin

The day I was scheduled to show Donny the E-A7, he went and ordered the Korg at the breakfast table...I didn't have the heart to show the good stuff on the Roland.. smile

Seriously, I like the Korg for the SD slot, and key feel.

Guys let me know when you get the handle of the Korg. rocker

This feature is definately a must, not only for pro players, but also for most home players... because its also very handy when excersising some new songs (piano)



Hi
home use only of course, I used to have Band in a Box play the chords for my old PSR 1500 or the pa800 .
Type the chords into biab, keyboard would follow the chords. Good way of practicing melody, plus ensemble mode worked.
What was even more interesting was muting one of the keyboard style tracks and have biab audio loop play instead ie mute keyboard drums and use biab audio loop drums or audio guitar loop instead of the keyboard guitar track. Made the little old PSR sound quite good. Haha

You would end up with the options of four convenient chord sequence loops (SP1, SP2, SP3, SP4) that you chose on the fly, freeing up your two hands to practice whatever you want.

Can easily be synced with any Tyros 5 style with sync start, including multipads on top of the chord sequences (SP1-SP2). Once synced, the chord sequence with follow the tempo changes of the style play.

Very dynamic control over your chord sequences, plus you can activate one the 4 loops on-the-fly, essentially generating access to four separate chord sequences.

Style Bass Conversion and manual bass control on the Tyros 5 can be setup within your style play and split point options while you create your chord sequence midi song file before you setup and enter song position markers.

Hi
Is this a new function only on the Tyros 5? or is it on psrs as well. ( ie s950) , and maybe haven't realised it exists.
