A while back this was a topic, but never got answered.
The topic went into a different direction.... wink
Don, you said you would try this feature at some point in time.
Any thoughts/experiences?
I am curious how well or not it works.
Thanks
Eric

I did try it on three songs. It works pretty well actually. You can still make them better by editing afterwards, but the basic division into style parts, including intros and endings, is pretty good on the ones I did.
When I get a chance I'll post one.

How well do the individual parts follow chord progressions?

I am puzzled by the minimal interest in this feature...... There has always been this concern that there are not many Song Styles in the Korg Arena....You would think that even with a simple Song Style creation that this would be well accepted.

Sharp ( Korg Forums ) is quite pleased with it.

If I had a Korg, I would be all over this !!!!!!! Maybe I am missing something ????

It appears that the MIDI to STYLE feature is going to be the big attraction on several new arrangers this season!

Saw this on Utube. The guy mentions this feature at 1:01 in the clip. Casio MZ X500.

When and if it's perfected will be a great feature!

As far as sequencing is concerned,but dependent also on the quality of the sound engine.

Customizing existing styles with recorded new bass lines, and rerecording other parts into the style using the sounds is the way to go ...it takes time but if your good it sounds amazing and the way YOU want it.......thats what an arranger does..

I would love to have this feature on my Pa900 ... in the meanwhile, I will continue to use Ron's arrangerworld.com as an additional resource for KORG styles ... I have found a number of good 'song specific' styles there ...
now if Ron would only get a PA4X ... wink grin keys
