Fran, with the (mostly) ol' farts that frequent this board, it's going to have to be a REALLY BIG tip .

Hi,



I was talking about rootless positions as said by Scott. But anyway I'm still curios to understand what you mean: can you show few examples of these chord recognition modes available in G-70 you are talking about ?

Regards.

There are 3 types of chord recognition (Standard, Piano Mode, Intelligent) and a Bass Inversion switch; the chord recognition can be assigned to left or right side of the keyboard or to the whole keyboard.
For further details I suggest you to download the User's Manual since writing them here would be too long.

The only problem I have with these types of "Band in a Box" keyboards is that they take away the originality of the artist.

I mean.. you press a button and here's a standard fill that everyone else is using as well.

To me, if you program stuff yourself, even tweak the sounds, resample your own stuff.. then you have YOUR sound

Anyway.. my 2 cents I guess

Hello Booby, I own a Pa1Xpro and i am having some problems, when i switch to different voices the page does'nt load properly and when i switch to a different voice the sound is distorted and sounds terrible, should i trade it in? have you had any problems.

Hi chas

I wonder if you would mind emailing those tweaked styles to me?

Actually, what I have been thinking about is, it seems like it would be a great idea if all birds of a feather flock together. In this case, I think if Tyros 2 owners would share their tweakings with others, perhaps on some good site, maybe psrtutorial, then everyone would come out way ahead, don't you agree?

There is nothing preventing you from re-programming your own riffs or sounds on an arranger keyboard. I always get amazed when I hear this from so called, "artists" that refuse to use a so called band in a box keyboard. This is in part to the fact they are supposed to be so creative with original thoughts of sounds, lyrics, etc. yet they BLINDLY refuse to entertain the thought of even using an arranger for song construction. Some of the top artists use arrangers for that very purpose; putting song frameworks, composition, rehearsal, orchestration together.

Come to think of it, you can complain about the same thing about a Yamaha Motif or a Korg Triton with thier built in patterns, samples, and sequencers.

Cute waitresses aside (see above). As I have experimented with rootless jazz voicings on the T2 I have discoved that it does recognize some; however, it doesn't play them correctly. It plays all the notes of the chord in the inversion that it chooses. With some careful planning and some unnatural inversions I have gotten some good results.

... HEY... I RESEMBLE that remark !!!
t.

It's up to us the keyboard player, to play (and sound) the desired LH rootless chord voicing + inversion, not the keyboard's piano arranger auto accomp part. What chord recognition mode are you using? The which recognizes rootless chords is "FINGERED MODE". In this mode, the keyboard (with LEFT voice turned ON)faithly reproduces the actual LH chords + inversion, we're playing.It's (of course) important to remember to TURN OFF "auto accomp" piano compng parts, if this is what you were refering to.
