Now, that 9-part horn styles are appearing, how about in the next round offering some styles that feature real, live, jazzy-sounding vocal parts. Something like Yamaha has done with its Tyros 5 arranger. I’m talking about slick, multi-part vocal harmonies, with little vibrato (no opera singers)-----like a small choral group that sings in the jazz style. Maybe offer some oohs, aahs, humming, some scat riffs, etc. Maybe male and female parts to select from. How would that sound behind a cooking rhythm section?

The scat thing could be really good.

I also think their is no reason why we cant have real vocals. Vocals are a special case, but they couyuld be managed thus:

Template Vocals of a whole verse or chorus, with appropriate Real Tracks already selected could be loaded as by the user.

This would provide a cover version of a desired pop/jazz/rock/ standard

Where the lyrics are being sung this would 'freeze'certain parameters (for example the transposing of the vocals might be constricted to a range, maybe tempo too). These bars would handle in a block, and the blocks could be moved around, in two, four, eight, or sixteen bar sets. They would show up in a colour on the main screen.

The ability to control all would return in any other bars. For example twelve bars of solo, could be added, with any chords.

The ability to change the RTs would remain, but obviously should be used with wisdom

You could probably find scat in a VST. My Roland 700NX has some scat sounds, depends on how deep you go of course?
