Dave sorry to hear that....the SD7 isn't for everyone...especially with your right hand trigger vocal demands, which btw you are the only person I know who does it that way....lol But I understand your feelings.
Funny how we are all different players with many Different Needs. For example I don't like the sound of the BOSE systems for a few reasons, Fran loves a 20yr old Roland G70, go figure?......I also didn't care for the KORG OS & many of their styles on my Pa3x of which I traded you for the S950 lol the VH isn't that important imo I use it sparingly these days anyway,....we all like what we like, there's nothing wrong with that.
What ever make a player comfy and happy is the right choice for them. For me the SD7 is an amazing unit, but I agree it's not an OOTB arranger Kb, you have to MAKE IT YOUR OWN!!!...if you do your homework setting it up it will definitely serve you well. After watching that S970 demo I'm know I made the right choice with the KETRON SD7...

Have a great day!!

SD7 Maiden Voyage !!

Hello? ... HELLO??? pfft pfft pfft ... is this thing ON ??? ... there's no SOUND coming out ?!?!?

Tony, ..easy buddy...all good things come to those who wait...

It was a very small gig 20pp the SD7's fantastic LOUD on board speakers covered the room without a problem. I took a tyip from Deane who did a similar job with no amp also.

I'm waiting ... I'm WAAAITING ...

Donny and Tony,
What is really surprising is the quality of sound produced by the on-board speakers. It really does work out ok for small gigs. Donny, I have a lot of these gigs and we usually setup the room where everyone is right up front, almost like the old piano lounge atmospheres. I really like them because I maintain a constant exchange with the people and can hear their comments and requests.

This is a pic of the SD7 Song Registration display....
to search either use the numerical keypad song # or simply Scroll down the list to the Song Title using the wheel and Press Enter couldn't be easier!

I don't see any song titles - just styles.

Gary it's just an example pic,.....you would just simply Type the song titles in the same slots in the banks once they are saved,
(I think each bank hold 999 songs) that you see the styles in.
It's a great easy to read system to navigate. Here's the sound & style select page and the Record page all very easy to the eyes..
