Hi,
Band in a box is great.
What would be even greater is using a midi keyboard to input chords in real time for an auto accompaniment experience similar to an auto accompaniment keyboard.
I honestly believe that your sales with double or triple if you had this feature.
No existing Yamaha or any other brand of auto accompaniment keyboard could begin to touch the real styles of band in a box.
I can imagine nothing more fun than playing chords and having band in a box follow the chords while I'm playing in real time.
Please tell me such a thing as possible and that you are working on it right now.
Right now having to manually input the chords is intellectually interesting but not visceral.
There is nothing like the feeling of creating music on the spot by playing chords on a keyboard.
The auto accompaniment I have used before allows you to play chords using both hands.
This allows for a very complex and inspiring chords.
And to have all those real tracks waiting to be triggered by chords I'm playing; that's about as close to heaven as I'm going to get.
I would appreciate it if you let me know what you think.

A simple sync IN (a long time Wishlist item!) would go a long way to achieve something like this.
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should!

I suppose this could (but obviously hasn't been) be implemented with MIDI with no latency (because if you are playing real time, you can't have any latency), but not meaning to burst anyone's bubble, until they figure out a way to make RealTrack generation instantaneous, I doubt this is going to happen.
And the fact that this has been a wish list item since the early MIDI-only days, and hasn't happened yet, so I doubt it will.
But, you never know...

Solidrock, it would have been nice if you provided a company name and a link for TRIO.
Ooops, sorry Solidrock, didn't have my glasses on and missed the link.

Thank you MarioD.
Wow just saw a couple of demos. I'm really tempted to buy one. Fast and quick. Save me the headache of trying to find the right style.

Yes, pricey comes to mind. 349 EUR, $386.50 US or $506.21 Canadian Trio is one toy (defined as something I want but do not need) I'd really like to get. Another is the ++ You Rock Midi Controller ++
