Hennie,

What type of styles are you seeking and missing on the AUDYA (send Youtube links to the similar tunes you want to play but cannot find styles on the AUDYA for them right now)? Maybe we can put some of these on our next development program for AUDYA. It's true ... the heart of the Arranger is it's styles.

Did you get the Super Professional styles yet?

Thanks,

AJ

No AJ,

My last update was Ajamsonic version 2. Not to worry my friend, it's really not serious. Please note that my email has changed to buildtofly@yahoo.com I am no longer at Exxaro.

Like everyone ove here says, I'm sure I'll dig into the Audya again sometime.

Have a blessed day,

Henni

biggest problem with AUDYA is that editing, tweaking is nearly impossible, no micro editing

u think Ketron should really re-do the entire OS, and let us tweak as you can on my Roland G-70, or the PA3X, etc.

AUDYA sounds great out of the box, that's it
if you want new stuff, you generally have to create yourself,
except AJ's AJAMSONIC of course

we have TWD Awesome styles from UK, and Robert's kick @ss style. Wish those had continued

people create awesome styles for Audya, totally new like these:




I think what Henni is saying is that styles are EVERYWHERE for the Yamaha, thousands of them, you don't have to learn how to program, and make them yourself

i wouldn't give up overall "sound" for more styles.

my Audya moves the crowd and that's what it's all about at the end of the day

Hi,

I've cracked the way to make some Tyros 5 vocal styles work on my S950. Beautiful styles - AMAZING styles. (AJ, you should look into ALL Yamaha styles using human vocals - the Audya could REALLY do with these type of styles...) Now that would keep me occupied for awhile.

Off course they should sound better on the Audya, but Ketron does not provide the tools to do these kind of things...

Leezone, I've been here for awhile now. You weren't always so kindly outspoken & in favor towards the Audya. What lit your spark recently?

Cheers,

Henni

I totally agree! I really need that too! Not to mention *.ins cretion software...

That sad, don't make us case, software ins to make drum, i would like to make drum ins in gm to my liking. ketron manufacturer does not make us case is amazing.

Hi all,

See here what I mean. Michael Bedesem & Yamaha provide the tools to change modified styles from any older or other fabricate & model arranger into the most modern, high tech Yamaha styles. And it is SO easy!

Now, if Ketron would also do THAT...

For me it's mostly about available styles & I get bored very quickly. No manufacturer beats Yamaha in this regard!

Henni

Hi,

Listen to what I mean here.

Henni

Here's what it is,

I've finally figured it out after spending some more time on the Audya. The Audya is for real musicians who can play for real with their right hand. All the voices are there, but you the player must use them. In return you get the most realistic backing ever.

The Yamaha is good for me because I'm more of a programmer than a real time musician. I can push buttons, play chords, use intros & endings for better effects. I can utilise all the "Wow" of an arranger, but I cannot play in real time. Hence the Yamaha is better suited for me. By merely pushing the right buttons, I can create spectacular stuff, but really it is the arranger doing it and not me.

I say again, the Audya does EVERYTHING exceptionally well that Fran describes. He would fall in love with it quickly. DonM plays guitar & other instruments on an keybed like the real thing. So he'll get the best out of the stunning voices of the Audya & the styles won't over power his playing.

So, the Audya is good for real musicians, the Yamaha also. But it has enough wow things which can be had by the simple push of a button so that someone like me can also create some stunning stuff with it.

You start off with most Yamaha intros & viola, the WOW! is there before you've even started the song. Good for me, but bad for a real musician who wants to play the intro himself as it sounds in the original song.

We do Gospel, so any intro goes as we do not imitate any specific music. I press intro in the middle of a song and WOW! again. a True musician would NEVER do that. Ketron specifically created intros in such a way that is does not effect the song to be played. Good for a real musician, but bad for me...

So, an Audya in the hands of a true musician sounds truly amazing, even spectacular. But the Yamaha in my hands, also sounds spectacular, but it's mostly the arranger doing the "wow" & not me. Hence I like busy styles as I cannot contribute anything else to it apart from the right chords.
