LOL. I didn't even notice the avatar change, as it changes so much Just kidding Donny Hope you're enjoying your T4!

Wife and I headed to bank - hope we don't get pulled over!

Two things ....
1) I'm respectfully asking you to consider removing the constant reminder of our health crisis, by changing your avatar to something else. We're all aware of the changes to life as we know it, but maybe less visual stimulation will help instill a sense of calm? Just my 2 cents. Wanted you to know how it makes ME feel. Just me?

2) SD7 is due here Thursday ... IF shipping goes as planned. I did have one years ago, but many things have changed, and the chance to swap it for my EA7 was a welcome opportunity. It went to a good home, and will no doubt get more love from Tye than I would have given it.

So, if it comes on schedule - I'll play it, and comment on it, but for now ... like much of the rest of our lives - we wait.
Be safe, my friend, and please don't take my comments as an attack. Just wanted to weigh in on one man's opinion. My glass is always 1/2 full.

SD7 is a great keyboards if I don’t have both Audya and SD9, I’d have keep it, I hope you’d enjoy it, just check ups it’s on the way, please use it for your FB live, I’d love to hear you with Sd7 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

Don,
I know the user styles do not contain the RH voice. I did not know the registrations contained the voices. But, I have not used registrations a lot. I need to work with that and do some experimenting. Still loving my Ketron experience and I really like the convenience of my SD40 module.

Shades of Pale ...
would love to hear your EA7 review also once you get to using it...

Hi Donny, I always like Roland styles, but the lack of 1. Real Break button 2. No hold button, (to be fair, Yamaha doesn’t have it either ) 3. No restart/restyles button that’s kind of a deal breaker for me. But overall I t does what I expected it to do, small enough, has some of the built in styles from Thailand which I’d like to have 2-3 Times a year. I’m amazed at what Don Mason and other player here made some fabulous music with EA7🤓

Thanx

Track Mute (even though there is a dedicated button. Default is mute all style parts except drum and bass).

no more icon

Don et al,
Is it an option in lieu of a break button to use this track mute button, or the arr on/off as a break? Seems like it'd be suitable with just the drums playing while you do your break. Thoughts?

... the mind is a terrible thing!

Tye, try using intro 1 for a fill/break. You have to hit it slightly early, but a lot of the factory styles have been changed to make it very useful.
As far as Hold button, not certain what you mean, but remember a lot of functions can be assigned to the row of buttons on the bottom left. I have assigned 1.Tempo Ritard (to ritard endings mostly), 2. Track Mute (even though there is a dedicated button. Default is mute all style parts except drum and bass). 3. R1 DSP on/off. 4. Lead voice cycle between R1, R2 and R3. 5. Melody Intelligence. 6. Arranger Hold (maybe what you need?) 7. Lower Hold
This arranger is VERY deep. Don't give up on it until you learn what all it can do. In many cases a long press (press and hold) opens up editing screens. The Balance knob doubles as a data wheel...much, much more than isn't readily apparent.
