... in the 21st century !!! dance

My good RI/S-Z buddy Steve came over tonight and spent a couple of hours instructing me on the use of the Pro12 Tablet and how to sync it to my Pa900 ... WOW !!!
I know I have some work ahead of me getting my 'books' onto the tablet, but that will come, especially as I am setting up playlists for gigs ...
Both the KB and the tablet talk back and forth with each other - pick a song from the KB songbook and the corresponding music sheet, lead sheet, what ever comes up on the tablet; pick a song on the tablet and the corresponding styles, STS, etc come up on the KB - with no latency whatsoever ...

And let me say that we often gripe about what the manufacturers are doing when they are designing these magnificent 'computers', but I was 'blown away' by the fact that my Pa900 was BUILT to accept a connection to a tablet, and that KORG wrote a manual of instructions to set it up ...

And I cannot say enough or give enough thanks to Steve for taking the time to instruct me on how to "get 'er done" ...
Steve, you are the best, and I owe you breakfast !!!

Thank you gentlemen. Tony you're a good student glad you took the steps into the 21st century. The technology is really fantastic! You're right on Tony we gripe about what the keyboards may lack but they are really great pieces of technology.

As you wrote Tony "NO Latency at all." very cool stuff!


I'll take you up on breakfast as soon as our schedules work out. smile

Steve has helped me tremendously in getting acquainted with the
Korg Pa4X. He has drove from Ocala to Port Richey to instruct
me on the basics and when back in Rhode Island has emailed me
instructions on how to do various things on the Korg.

He has become a very good friend and never fails to answer any
question I have. He is such a helpful person! Lloyd

Great news Tony, now you can enjoy your keyboard even more. I would love to find someone to teach me how to connect my IPad to my BK-9 to do program changes. I wish Roland would produce a video of how to do it.
Providing info like this about their gear would definitely up sales.

Been saying this for years and pretty much only KORG has made an attempt to teach features to their customers on video "HOW TO" for the most part,......otherwise your on your own to find help in whatever way possible. frown
