Hello,
Since the 600/900 does not have the fill1, 2 3 buttons, do any of you know if the nanopad2 or the akai lpd8 can be used?
I dont like foot controllers, would like a small controller I can put on top of the board.
please advice.

You can access the fills directly from the 600/900 keyboard.
Method 1. With AUTO FILL on
While any Variation 'n' is playing press that Variation 'n' button - Fill 'n' will play
While any Variation is playing press Variation 'n' AND the AUTO FILL buttons simultaneously - Fill 'n' will play
Method 2. With AUTO FILL off
While any Variation is playing press Variation 'n' AND the AUTO FILL buttons simultaneously - Fill 'n' will play
BTW - I have a brand new an Akai MPD32 if anyone is interested.

Thanks Thoraldus. That info helps.
Now I am more curious, does your Akai MPD32 work as a trigger for fills?

Thanks. That sort of answers my initial question as well.
