That was awesome, Al.

That guy has a wicked left hand bass.

The guitar lead at the end was very, very good.

Are you doing something similar with yours?

Al,

I can imagine that Tyros 4 and a Kronos would be some kit to have, when I bin the Audya I think I will buy the Kronus.

This kind of demo is why arranger players aren't interested in workstations...
I would have rather seen someone play some standards, songs with some of the styles rhythms you have on an arranger KB, waltz, polka, chacha, merengue, R&R, 6/8 ballad etc.. on the KRONOS..

Try this out for size and sound, this is my goal now.

If you think of it that the Audya has the best styles, The Jupiter 80 has the best accoustic instrument simulations and the Kronos has the best of the rest, those 3 would make a dreamsetup.


The KARMA, could work as an arranger, but that would require alot of programming and not have the depth of current arrangers. No intros ends and fills... and not as much diferentation between the different chord types... Just different arpeggios and/or KArmfied loops per track.

Horses for courses, Donny. Simple as that. On a purely synth forum you'd probably find your question turned 180 degrees with someone asking 'why doesn't the guy play something we can relate to', not this Broadway musical stuff. I don't think anyone in the market for a Kronos is looking play pop stuff, for want of a better term, do you? That said, Baartmans, et al, could probably manage it. As has been said so many times, it's the player, not necessarily the tools.

Kronos is made for different stuff...it excels at what it is designed to do...be a powerful synth.

Arrangers are altogether different.
