I want to play songs (well duh) and use midi files that I use with Synthesia for fill and backing, like the doors, riders on the storm, improv too. I am like 400 years old and need to make it as easy as possible to play a song or play along with a song. I want to use the "easy chord" feature, the 410 really does not do that very well. The chord notes are the same for each octave, all it does is change the layered bass note. I think it was designed to use exclusively with the style feature not as a stand alone feature. If the first chord is not completely released the next chord is unusable. Playing like that is not smooth and chord play sounds mechanical. I know most beginners should be learning chords, disabled.
I will never use the styles or groove feature (I am not playing the polka and they are not editable enough to match the song?) A one-man-band, to play songs with some backup and fill (midi file), without PC. Maybe an added multi-pad, to trigger other tracks or sounds during the song and a mic auto tune feature would be nice, maybe.
Also 76 keys are not enough for Riders On The Storm but doable. I tried reaching out before this purchase to places like Sweetwater and forums without much luck, but these are so complicated it's difficult to know exactly how they really function.
