Man! How many times are we going to go over this topic? Fact is the arrangers today can be used in so many different ways. If I wish and am capable I can just use it as a single kb playing it as a piano or organ. My only real complaint about arrangers is the fact that so few use any variety in the drum patterns. Back in the days of playing organs we would pick a drum pattern and ude it all the way through the tune. It sounded repetitious because it was. We've come a long ways but 4 fills per pattern is still repetiious. It really comes down to how well does the performer play, doesnt' it?
Arranger style repetition is the real downfall... Hopefully in future models this will be rectified and redesigned to eliminate the automatic syndrome..
Hi ,
if one was actually capable of programming a style, no need for a korg to be repetitious .
There are 6 chord variations (cv’s) for each of the 4 variations , and 2 cv’s for each of the fills. That means you can have 6 different patterns for each of the variations, each one is assigned to a different chord type, so when you play a maj chord , you get pattern 1, play a maj7th chord you get pattern 2 etc.
In total up to 24 patterns for the 4 variations. Plus they can be up to 32 bars long.
Really no need for a style to be repetitive .
Korg doesn’t program the styles to use all the cv’s available, but it can be done.
