Thanks for looking Donny, but I'd rather use a style.

Paul,

Just use the Schlager Samba, second intro, or better yet, play your own intro. Use the "D" variation, short ending and a tempo of 115. It's a style that really nails this particular song. It can also be used quite well for Copa Cabana.

Good Luck,

Gary cool

Hello, the closest to Conga, is one song-style sold by D-o-o.de
Demasiado Corazon by Willy DeVille. keys
some adjustments and could work.

Several really good SMF's out there for this one. There are a ton of signature start stop sections in this song, virtually impossible to do with a generic style.

You can always place Markers in the SMF if you want the flexibility of adding or subtracting sections depending on your dance floor.

I really don't like tracks but for the reasons you mentioned this might be an exception... anyone know about setting up Markers for a Tyros 2?
