Sorry I sold my BK7M as I've been playing more on my FP90 Piano and It would be fun to have just some Drums / Bass backing to play Jazz Trio Style. The roland App. gives some Styles but you can't edit them. I even thought of Midi ing my BK9 to the FP90 on a two tier stand but then it would be hard to edit and play the BK9.
Just looked at an old RA50 module but you can't edit the parts on that either.
Any suggestions for an easy inexpensive option ?

I messed around with a BK9 quite a bit when there was one in a local store. The one I tested didn't have the latest OS updates, but I found the style editing and creation workflow to be kind of bug-ridden. This feature is important to me, so I kept my E-50. You might be able to find an E-series secondhand on an auction site. Or you could step up to an E-A7 and hope Roland did a better job with software quality control this time around.

I sure couldn't say that. There are some that deserve to be hated because they are despicable people.
