Well. for me it's a good thing that I can make different style parts, most of the 7th are on the 4th or 8th measure, and you can already set them as fill in ;)
The 7th Chord I am allways programming it as a fill and with new bass/acc 1-6 to be different from Major or Minor.
Even the minor, you can set it a little different, like a little change in the bassline...
Anyway, the fixed chord is too mechanical, so a little change with minor/major/7th is welcome.

no, the GW-8 has only dual OR split. it doesn't work both in the same time.
but I was able to program thru midi other channels and with other midi key to play on other midi channels ,and save the performance with all the settings on all channels.

Hi,cminor..thank you very much for yor reply.well but if you have done so is it possible to store that mode as default whenever iam gigging,because i really love that 4layerd sound..for me it makes a great difference..secondly does gw8 come with a book rest/or extra attachment to do so?/is there any other way to have it?

geo:
1. gw8 can't import tones as "wav| (sampler). it can only import settings of performances where the internal sounds can be tweek and saved.
2. the GW have 4 different versions: A (asia), C (China) E (eastern europe) and L (latin)
3.GW have 2x64mb tone chipsets 1(64mb) of Fantom-Xa combined with Sonic Cell, and the second, World (64mb).
The World Chipset is different from version to version.
So styles from E version will not be 100% compatibile with other version (it is only if it doesn't have World Tones in the Style.
This is why the .svd is not compatible too.
I am admin on a romanian site but as I know it is not allowed here to put links to other site without the admin permission.
