Thanks for that Miden. So what Magic Alpha is saying if i undersatnd him correctly is that for each style in the Qranger that you create you will have to paste in very conceviable chord lets say for the rythm guitar and the same again for lets say your horn section and then the same again for your organ and then repeat the whole excersise again for each style variation if you want the style to recognise every chord ????? So you would need to find a guitar loop for every chord using the same to make the sound seem audibly seamless ?
How is that different to what the Audya has done or is trying to do ???? It has taken the Audya 3 or more years to get here with a whole production team behind it. How long would it take one musician to just make 50 good styles that would work no matter what chord type you threw at it ??????? Or have i completely misunderstood you magic Alpha ?

I have the PA1X. If i wanted to i could create the 1st style variation by recording each instrument into one Chord Variation (CV) and have different chord recognistion types per instrument in that one CV. So for example i can programme a guitar riff in CV1 that only triggers when i play a dimished chord. in CV2 I can programme a different guitar riff that only triggers when i play a Minor 9th chord. I can have horn stabbs that only trigger when i paly any 13th chord . I can keep doing this for up to 6 CV and thats only for the 1st style Variation (i can have up to 4 complete style variations for each complete style excluding fillins,breaks endings and intro's. Thats the level of depth i could go into in making a style. But for most styles i only use 2 CVs because the keyboard will play quite happily most chord types correctly.But by programming this way i can creat a feeling of liveness in a style by simply playing different chords to trigger a different feel to the music. It takes skill but thats why i dont change keyboard often so i can really dig into its features. Lots of style making is intuitive and a great deal of trial and error but for the most part the skill needed to creat great styles is hugely underestimated.
