All of the above plus:
Repeating hold on fills until pressed again.

Ability to change entire programs of voices on the fly without missing a beat.

Choices of control parameters available with EC5 pedal(a must have for me).

There are so many I can't even think of, or know yet.

1-Editing/Saving anything on the fly without missing a beat!

2-Fills continuously repeat when pressed twice.

3-Fade works on all media....styles/smf/mp3

4-Menu tabs on bottom of display touch screen or Button sts.....also displays what instruments on each STS sound instead of guessing + pads, lyrics,Mic....
super helpful in live play.

more to come............

Hi
ditto for most of the above.
Some of the functions like vocalizer & mp3 I can't comment on because I probably won't use them & haven't tried them.
For me , the pads are a great feature. They can add variety to a style. They can be added as additional instrument tracks, or I can mute a style track ( or 2 etc) & use a pad instead for a simple style..
The pads can also be triggered by the EC5 Pedal board.
Lots of pad creation functions onboard, including, smf to pad, style to pad & pad to pad. Plus event list editing.
Also theres lots of style editing functions onboard.

best wishes
Rikki
