Just up on the Ketron UK website (www.ketronmusic.co.uk) :

FIVE new Irish Country Music styles for Audya. The styles are written by one of Irelands top performing and recording musicians, one of only a few people who can understand the needs of the Irish Music Scene and write excellent styles for arranger keyboards. As such, they are designed specifically with the Irish Performer in mind but will equally appeal to Scottish and English Country Musicians. The five styles cover a huge variety of songs and importantly are 'no frills' arrangements. Each style is set at the correct tempo for dancing.

Irish Half Time Quickstep
Irish Quickstep
Irish Slow Fox
Irish Slow Walking
Irish Waltz

Demo available on the website

Styles are delivered on self installing USB drive with full instructions.


Ketron UK will also be releasing a free style for Slosh dancing (e.g. Sweet Caroline) only available as a free download for those who purchase the Irish Country music pack.

Also:
The "By Request" Style pack from Robert Messier for SD7, SD40 and MidJay Pro will be priced at £34.99. This should be available next week.

Great news can't wait to buy.
Do you know if the drums in the styles use mono or audio drums?

Many Irish players prefer to output the drum sounds on different channels to their desk allowing for real time remixing of levels depending on venue and acoustics. Because of that, Audio drums are not appropriate.

Anyone purchased and received these new irish styles, if so what are they like? Apparently the programed accompliment is quit basic. I play guitar so there not going to sound as good as the demos as they are being played using additional sounds from someone playing the keyboard.

The arrangements for the styles are intentionally this way, this is the way Irish Country Music is. If you search "Irish Country Music" on youtube, you will notice there is very little instrumentation. Often only a guitar or accordion adds a counter melody to the vocals.

Dont forget, with the Audya you have the ability to add 'Arps & Licks' as well as other items in Style View. So if you do need to pad the style out a bit, it takes just minutes to do so.
