It's OPEN, already! Geeze ... LOL
I'm just pretty consumed with moving to relax and take it all in. I'll say this, as a preliminary top 10 review:

1) It sounds as good as anything I've heard, and better than most
2) Ergonomically (once you learn the OS) it's easy to use - clean, uncluttered layout
3) POWERFUL speakers - love 'em
4) sleek looking, and fully pro - metal construction - XLR combo mic jack - 3 usb slots
5) Some welcome changes over the earlier units - launchpad (still need to explore) - better filter/EQ options in real time
6) AJ
7) AJ
8) AJ
9) AJ
10) AJ

... did I mention having AJ for support?

clap

At one time, AJ was the only support person in the US for Ketron. This was once seen as a disadvantage for the brand and given as a reason to avoid them. It's quite a credit to AJ that this is now perceived as a positive and an excellent reason to buy Ketron products since he provides personal service the big brands can't match.

John,

I just realized we did not tackle your question at our last show (here for those who missed it:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aypaWapyg0c&t=3870s)

To get a style into the launchpad QUICKLY....


* Select and start playing the stye (as you would usually).
* As style plays, press the LAUNCHPAD button.
* Style will STOP playing and immediatley be COPIED over into the LAUNCHPAD (new LP project). You will be asked to SELECT which of the 3 intros and 3 endings you want to port over in next screen ... plus which style parts you want to port over and which to ignore. Select as desired.
* SD9 will now automatically take you into the LAUNCHPAD.
* SCENES 1-4 will be Arranger A-D. SCENES 5 (INTRO you picked) and SCENE 6 (ending you picked).
* Now you can trigger as you requested on other manufacture boards. You also have 3 empty pads per SCENE to bring in whatever you want (midi, style part, audio, live guitar, bass or drums)!

Enjoy!

Thanks,

I guess in the future they will make launchpads more like pattern sequencers..
With 16 scenes. (so you can fit in 4vars, 4 intro, 4ends, 4 fills)
Or having intro, verse1, verse 2, verse3, chorus 1, chorus2, ending with several interludes between them)
And then making them have 16 tracks.. which would make a lot more sense to me.. from a logical approach..


Is there an easy way to lets say copy the same midi track to track 12 of all 6 scenes?

Some of these have already been addressed .... I think I need to do a demo just on LP....
