Mp3 and style play

Post by takis46 »

The guitarist gave me his new blues part on a mp3 stick, in order to improvise/add piano. Is there any way to play the mp3 from the stick while in style-play? I would like to have piano + rhythm and other accompaniments. However although the mp3 appears on screen as loaded, it plays only in song mode. And in that mode, there is bare piano only... Till now, I have been using a tablet to play the mp3's but it is a torture. Any idea/help would be appreciated, . Thanks!

In Songplay-Mode it is not possible to use Style-Player-Functions - in StylePlay-Mode it is not possible to use Songplayer-Functions.

So merging StylePlay-Events with Songplay-Data can not be done with Pa-Keyboards in one procedure.

So I can forget having drums and chords simultaneously with any mp3-recorded sound.. :cry: It is a pity, though... It would be very useful.
Thank you very much, anyways!

... sure, also somebody need the option playing Audio or Mp3 and Styles in synchronization (with transposition ability for matching the keys of both Audio and Styles) but unfortunately it is not possible with Korg Arrangers.

Thanks! I also posted my complain to the P4X-ers. More people asking, more probable to annoy Korg's ear!A new firware maybe, if there are no hardware restrictions...
