I would like to get price options on a upgrade, but e-mails and phone calls have produced nothing.

Any suggestions ?

Bernie

I did not mean this in a derogatory way. I called twice to the above number at 10:00 A.M. EST with no answer, and sent an e-mail to your site Friday to contact me.

I simply am trying to see if I can benefit from your products at a reasonable cost.

Thanks
Bernie

Bernie9,

I just went through emails trying to locate the email you sent me, but unfortunately, I couldn't locate it. Please excuse the delay encured as a result of this. Can you kindly re-send to the address above? If you sent it to the KETRON site, it hasn't been forwarded to me yet (all US related mail gets forwarded to me from KETRON Italy or Ketron USA). This way, I can send you the relevant information. It's also possible I just missed it ... but I didn't take what you wrote to be derogatory. I was just trying to explain a litle more so others could also benefit from the experience (some have asked relate questions in the past too).

Again, sorry for the mixup. We will make it right Bernie.

Thanks,

AJ

Hi all,

Something quick to demonstrate new choir voices. I must still learn to use correct, but at least this will give some sort of an rough idea.

Soon I'll post something new using some of AJs stunning new styles.

Keep well all my friends,

Henni

USING PROGRAM.
Once you've loaded both voices into RAM, go to PROGRAM and select a program you want to edit (preferably in the CHOIR section).
* Press EDIT to enter the program EDIT mode.
* Press F1 to go to voice 1 and then press RAM/INS to enter the RAM voice pages.
* Turn wheel to get the HEY voice.
* Press F1 again to go to voice 2 and then press RAM to enter the RAM pages once more. Turn wheel to get the WHOW voice next. These should be displayed in capital letters, otherwise you are still in the ROM voices in AUDYA.
* Press USER5/10 to enter the CONTROL page and go to CONTROL 2/2.
* Press F3 to access the VELOCITY (how hard you press before a voice is heard).
* For voice 1, set Velocity 0-90 (when you play soft, you will hear this voice).
* For voice 2, set Velocity 89-127 (when you play a little harder, you will hear this voice). I use 89 as a cross (versus starting the 2nd voice at 91) so that there is a time when if you press just right, you get both.
* Test to your touch.
* Now press USER 4/9 (Effects SEND) and add REVERB (23 to V1 and 50 to V2 - you want V2 to have a 'sustain' effect and not just end when you release the key). I would also recommend adding Chorus to V1 (voice 1).
* Test and if ok, press SAVE and User 5/10 to save your new Program which will be loaded whenever keyboard is powered on.

*** As you play the voice, remember - when you play soft, you will hear (HEY). When you press HARD, you will hear WHOW. You can (as we did) play with 2 fingers hard to get HEY and 3 fingers soft to get WHOW. A few tricks as you play gives you control over when these voices come in as opposed to assigning to the styles engine (which you can still do with STYLE VIEW) and having choir voices come at the same place the same time over and over again.

Feel free to share the response above with the forum....

AJ

Hi all,

I'm a bit slow in posting some more AJAMSONIC demos as promised. I am currently assigning those AWESOME choir voices to my over 100 existing registries. This takes a while.

What I've discovered is this:

1. I assign one of the new AJAMSONIC onboard choir voices to my lower 2 voice.
2. Next I assign some of the new live RAM choir voices to my lower 1, different for each variation.

This sounds very realistic, at least to me. If we now sing ANYTHING without these new choir voices, it sounds thin & incomplete. When I'm all done we'll record another few songs that will clearly demonstrate this.

When all the above is done, I want to assign some of those new fantastic live guitar voices to my right hand & learn to play these as a type of harmony or fill in whilst Monica sings.

Next, I've now learned through the AJAMSONIC tutorial DVDs that I can assign more live voices to other style parts, that is apart from channel 4 & 5. I intend to revamp all styles used thus far.

Only then will I start creating new songs using my fabolous new AJAMSONIC styles. So within a week or so, I'll be ready with some new AJAMSONIC demos. In the meantime I'm really enjoying this new AJAMSONIC upgrade. It turned out to be everything & more that I hoped for. I feel so sorry for those of you who are missing out on this fantastic upgrade.

Keep well al my friends,

Henni

Hi Dusan,

Before I answer, just give me some time to verify the answers. Maybe AJ will even answer himself.

What I CAN tell you is that my Audya now takes over two minutes to boot, it's loading THAT many extra information...

The included brochure says:

1. Over 200 new voices/samples
2. 160+ new styles
3. Over 1560 new Audio Drums (1280 Studio Live Drums)
4. Over 8 000 songs from all genres
5. Over 100 styles from Ketron style library re-programmed & balanced.


In the meantime, find the AJAMSONIC upgrade demos here. You have to subscribe, but it's free & takes less than one minute:

password: abc123

In these demos you'll clearly hear many of the new styles & voices. I cannot play these new voices properly like AJ did.

I still listen to these demos almost on a daily basis as I learn from it how to properly apply & use all these new voices..

Keep well my friend,

Henni
