being new to this Kb I wanted to try the recording feature in the PA900 so I just picked a Bolero style & recorded a short song off the top of my head no rhyme or reason mistakes and all to see what the REC procedure is and what it would sound like. Of course down the road I will get more into it deeper with vocals,.

Sure makes you wanna throw rocks at that old Yamaha doesn't it? (He says as he takes shelter behind a wall of unused musical gear and half-empty fast food containers.)
To be serious, although it is against my nature, that sounds great Donnie!

Very nice. To me, half of good arranger playing is having the good taste to know which lead instrument to play over the backing and then being able to do a good simulation of that instrument (ie. not playing a trumpet lead like it was a piano). Nice job. Korg has always been my favorite arranger for styles.

Thanx fellas,....I hear you, for some reason KORG arrangers inspire you to play there are some really good sounds inside......
I'm still tweaking & having fun doing it. To be continued

I have to Donny, you made a good decision not to get the Ketron SD7.

The Korg has a more professional sound,both styles and lead

voices. That brass sounded very polished compared to the SD7.

Looking forward to hearing more of your recordings,throw in a

vocal the next time.

Sounds really nice, Donny ... one thing I have learned - which I am sure you know with all your prior KORG experience - is that you often have to kill a style part so it does not interfere with your solo work ...
I love the KORG and I thank you for turning me on to it a couple of years ago ...

Thanx Tony & Frank, your very welcome I was glad you changed from Technics and are enjoying the KORG PA900 now.
The all in one features are amazing.
I hope others will get inspired to record and post songs here also
so we can compare playing & different Kbs also.

Have a great day!!

I suppose in all my years I've played arrangers, I've never played a Bolero style. Yours sounded so good, that I called one up on the SD7 and recorded something. I called asked DNJ if it was o.k. if I posted it for comparison and he said sure. So here it is. Certainly different from the Korg. I like 'em both, but then I BOUGHT them both so I should.
It was the first time I really used the onboard audio recorder. Levels may have been a little hot.
