No ROLAND should make it and include it with the KB...
as should ALL manufacturers IMO.

Yea thats what I sadi in my other post but if Roland doesn't do it maybe they can cash in.

Ever see the pianoor organ tutorials on Youtube? Great stuff ! Licks you could never figure out laid out for you. Just put the camera up above go. Prepare a decent script beforehand, maybe one that mimics the manuel and I think it would work. IMHO

sometimes I fell they dont want you to learn the unit so you dont keep it and wont by a new one? after-all its all about $$$

Korg had an 8-part video tutorial on their site for the Pa3X by one of their demonstrators, Steve McNally - you can find it still on You Tube. Fairly basic stuff, but it'll get you started in the right direction.

they need basic & ADVANCED versions included in teh box when you get the unit.....or have the video play on the KB display internally

Donny ... didn't your Pa600 come with a tutorial DVD ? ... but you are right, there needs to be ADVANCED info as well ...

NO but I watched the tutorial online for basics.....but many SZ members around the world helped me with things I needed info about to get started for MY needs..

... actually, I got a LOT of help from some guy in southern New Jersey - OH WAIT !!!

Seriously, I got, and am still getting, a lot of help from several S-Z KORG players - you, DonM, Dave, Col, Graham, Tim, and others ...

Or you could just READ the manual carefully, and TRY STUFF OUT!

I think that's the step many are scared of... Back up your data properly, what have you got to be worried about? I learn more from being wrong 10 times than I do from being right once! Press buttons, move knobs and sliders, see what happens!

I am not sure why so many have had big problems understanding the BK series. I've got no-one on speed dial at Roland holding my hand... I just dive in, use the index in the manual as much as possible, try to concentrate on one thing at a time, and keep a good track of what I have done, so the result of it gets linked mentally to what I did.

Thing is, nowadays, people use arrangers in such utterly different ways, from MP3 playback machines to power users that want full knowledge of every single feature, it is hard to imagine a DVD that could cover it all, certainly not something a manufacturer can afford to put out for free. Then factor in updates, that often change some basic things, and what does the poor manufacturer have to do? Do it all over again?

Sorry, but my TV, my receiver, my cable modem, my sound system, my microwave and my sonic toothbrush came without instructional DVD's..! Somehow, I figured it out. You want spoon-fed, you gotta pay for it!
