As far as key signatures are concerned, I generally just choose a key which sounds right to my ear, for the particular mix of sounds which I have chosen for the song. The only version of this song which I have heard, is a recording by 'The Carpenters', which I have in my LP collection. Their version is in F minor. I chose to play the song in A minor because having limited keyboard skills, I find this an easy key in which to play - particularly since I play everything by ear. I then used the Transpose function to move the pitch a little lower, effectively moving the key to G minor.
This guy Willum (ORB), who is one of our finest keyboard players still likes to insist he is not a keyboard player but in fact is a drummer. Now if you can believe that, I have a nice shinny Golden Bridge for sale real cheap ![](http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/smile.gif) Bebop

Phil, you do have a wicked sense of humour, at times. Bill, I prefer my drum sticks skinless. There is no hurry to pile up more around my love handles. For sheer size and force, go for those of the flightless emu down under. [This message has been edited by Khai (edited 01-19-2005).]

With reference to : 'All Panel Memory changes were carried out using a 4 bank footswitch.'
The KN7000 has a facility for connection of 2 individual footswitches, via 1/4 inch jack sockets and a foot controller module which has 4 footswitches, via an 8 pin DIN socket.
These switches can be configured within the KN7000 operating system, to trigger a large number of functions such as Panel Memory Increment/Decrement, Rhythm Start/Stop, Intro/Ending, Fill-Ins, Sustain On/Off, Glide, Technichord On/Off, Rotary Tremelo Fast/Slow (for some Organ sounds) etc.
The particular functions assigned by the user to the footswitches, can be saved within the KN memory and combined with 'Song' data, when saved to SD card or disc. The option to save footswitch settings should be enabled, in the Panel Memory 'Expand' mode.
Using the footswitches to change the configuration of the keyboard, during live performance, means that you do not have to take your hands away from the playing keys, to change parameters.
I use both the individual footswitches and the bank of 4 module and normally have them set up as follows : Individual Footswitch 1 : Start/Stop Footswitch 2 : Intro/Ending 2 4 Switch Module Switch 1 : Fade Out Switch 2 : Panel Memory Decrement Switch 3 : Panel Memory Increment Switch 4 : Technichord On/Off
