Fran Carango Senior Member Registered: 05/26/99 Posts: 9673 Loc: Levittown, Pa, USA	It is the operation procedures that are bad.. Having to hold down a button and pushing another for a change... and you need two hands to do it.. Try that while you are performing _________________________ www.francarango.com

Try that while you are performing Personally I disliked Roland arrangers for the TWO Push transpose and a few other things so they all have quirky navigational features but as us pros know there is always a workaround...just sayin..

Bill Lewis Senior Member Registered: 11/12/08 Posts: 2447 Loc: Bluffton/Hilton Head SC USA	Does sound pretty good in the demo. Not full size keys as far as I can tell. As for button pushing I don't know how you guys make many changes while preforming. I like things all set up before I go. Good luck to whomever gets one. Good value to be sure. _________________________ Bill in SC --- Roland BK9 (2) Roland BK7M, Roland PK5 Pedals, Roland FP90, Roland CM30 (2), JBL Eon Ones (2) JBL 610 Monitor, Behringer Sub, EV mics, Apple iPad (2) Behringer DJ mixer

Hey Bill after using the Korg Micro Arranger keys these are full size lol As far as button pushing my fingers were always my strength and faster then any foot...... that why I dislike using pedals as less as I can maybe just a sustain or VH trigger two tops...
