I hate to say this, but you are doing Don a big disservice by even THINKING that he doesn't use the Audya fully when he plays...
Come on, James! Do you HONESTLY think that Don never hits the Fill buttons?
You know, I am STILL waiting for anyone with an Audya to post a clear, step by step repro of a crash you can make happen EVERY TIME. It's all very well to go 'I pushed some buttons and it crashed', but that doesn't help ANYONE, not even yourself!
Which buttons? In what order? How fast did you press them? What were you doing while you pressed them? Was the arranger running or in pause? Do the crashes happen only when transposed? Do they only happen on certain styles..?
I know it's a pain, and you MIGHT feel it isn't your responsibility to even have to help track these things down, but I can tell you from experience, doing this in an organized fashion (try to think like a software engineer, NOT a musician - that's who you are trying to help, anyway
) will net results a LOT faster than these nebulous claims that not everyone seems to get.
At this point, and knowing that you MIGHT get a crash or a problem at any time, you really ought to start taking GREAT care to try to remember what you are doing at all times you are messing with the Audya. Then, when a crash occurs, you will be able to say 'I was doing THIS, then I did THAT, then I did THAT, and it crashed'... Then, you can repeat the EXACT same sequence, and see if it happens again.
Once you can get a clear set of repeatable steps that always cause a crash, you can report this to Ketron, and, even more important, avoid doing those exact steps that causes the problem, and perhaps find a workaround for the function that doesn't crash...
Unless you go through this procedure, you are going to be always gun shy as you play the Audya, and the Ketron development geeks will be in the dark when only given uninformative posts like 'I pushed some buttons and it crashed'.
Help THEM to help YOU...
