Hello All,

For me, music is much like a painting. Not everyone sees/hears it the same. Most songs/
tunes I play, suggest their own rhythm and style, so once I have the setup, I then proceed to 'tweak' if necessary mostly using the KN7s on board sounds and rhythms.

I think the 'Music Pads' are one of the best features of the KN7 and I make very good use of them, particularly the phrases (pads 5 & 6) as these allow me to turn the pages of my music books seamlesly. As some of you know, I now also have the Tyros 3 which has what is known as 'Multi Pads'. They are a similar idea but believe me! they are not a patch on the Technics Pads and certainly nowhere near as easy to use (but that's another story).

I've never really been interested in using the sequencer as I found it to be too time consuming, but going on the few times I have used it, I appreciate what it does and how it can enhance your own compositions.

Something else I don't use at all and that is Midi Files. I have a friend who uses almost nothing else. He is a singer and says that midi files help him to sound good but again, I wouldn't know as I am what is known as "tone deaf" and you wouldn't want to hear me sing anyway.... Interesting topic this!
