Would definitely love to get the piano score for ROYGBIV - the part that plays after the main synth intro. Been trying to work it out for ages!

Ha, I'm jealous. I can play the intro on guitar; (F#m, A, D, A, D, B), but have no idea about "verse" parts when the high synth line plays above the piano chords.

i LOVE my ion, can spend hours just pressing one or two keys, in fact i tend to find a little melody i like and put that through all the different options, splitting up the keyboard and fiddling. Have a lot of fun on it, would love a micron actually as its so bloody heavy, want one to play with in bed!

hey, i have a micron, i recommend it.

very portable, lots of options, sounds nice, affordable. also, there is a very active ion/micron yahooo user group. if you are interested in purchaseing, I would suggest poking around in there.

The main riff is based around F#m, A, D, A, D B - that much I know! :D

God, what a total moron. Do you think he's missing the point somewhat?

Yeah I think he is missing the point big time. Its like that English teacher in Dead Poets Society who quite methodically and systematically squeezes the life out of romantic poetry. This guy has allowed his years of experince of listening to music to form unhealthy prejudices. Maybe thats the way we will all go <croak> "in my day samples were real samples... croak... splutter.. cough ...cough...cough :wink:
