Hi Rikki:
Thanks for your feedback on this.
I guess too, it would be hard for the people to understand if they just started using Technics for the first time, or never got the next model. When having one KN, who thinks of those things. UNTIL YOU GET THE SECOND ONE! Then the person will find out the "hard way" that the rhythm patterns don't match and the song doesn't have that particular rhythm it had on the prior model.
If the prior model was kept then there's some hope, but if you have a lot of song files and want to match it, well there's alot of work to be done, but possible. But if the person traded the older model and doesn't have it... Well then I guess it's a hunting we will go a hunting we will go...
I lucked out sort of. I got my first taste on a Technics PR305 at the parish I attend. I liked it, played for the parish, and got the next newwer model that came out which was the PR900. I recorded songs at the parish using the PR305, but when played at home on the PR900, it was different, not the same rhythm pattern. Doing my homework and reading the manual, I experimented with copying to composer, and having the the panel memories point there. BINGO! When played on the PR900, got that old time religion back. Amen...
Just trying to save the great folks here any disappointments when or if they upgrade.
