Don't really need any high pricelevel arranger to do this .... _________________________ Cheers 🥂 GJ _______________________________________________ "Success is not counted by how high you have climbed but by how many you brought with you."

If perform like that, I would rather use a $25 Casio or similiar, and use the rest of the money saved to do a happy trip or two to the sunny and warm Canary Islands. _________________________ Cheers 🥂 GJ _______________________________________________ "Success is not counted by how high you have climbed but by how many you brought with you."

But I still play the chords live, even try to hit the correct keys once in a while to make it sound reasonable right for the songs..... _________________________ Cheers 🥂 GJ _______________________________________________ "Success is not counted by how high you have climbed but by how many you brought with you."

Maybe...but you sure can't get a full blown arrangement like "New York, New York" by playing style play. A lot of ebb and flow and intermittent instruments cannot be achieved in style mode, as in a SMF. That said, I cannot and will not play a SMF. I love the versatility and (somewhat) creativity achieved by 'working at it'. I get a lot of compliments on my arrangements - which are really mine _________________________ Live: Korg PA4X/EV Everse 8s/Senn 935/K&M stand Studio: Korg PA4X/Yamaha DGX670/Nord 6D73/Boss BR900CD/Tascam DP24SD/MTM Iloud/Sony C80/AGK 214/ATEM Mini Pro switcher/K&M stand
