Re: [LAU] I need a single-play player

If you want a midi player the Yamaha QY-70 and it's replacement the QY-100
are about as big as a VHS cassette. The QY-100 uses smart media for extra
storage. The advantage of midi is the ability to change tempo or key on the
fly. And some audience members who are expecting a live performance are put
off with a cd or mp3 player but will buy into the QY-70 that you are
occasionally fingering. The QY-70 is designed as a backing instrument with
lots of patterns and great sounding voices. They go for about 200-300$
used.
