The Plan
I own four arranger keyboards and one vintage arranger keyboard.
For enjoyment, I create chord progressions using their styles.
Each keyboard boasts 200-300 styles, with one even featuring 400 styles.
Every style represents a potential chord progression, spanning various genres such as pop, dance, world, jazz, and more.
I attempt to complete a round of genres; for example, if a keyboard has five genres, I select the first style from each genre.
A round is considered successful if I can create something with each style and if there are more successes than failures.
My goal is to create something with every style on each arranger keyboard, although it's a challenging task
Once I've used every style, I consider the keyboard completed.
Currently, I have four to five keyboards, and the completion order is as follows: Casio WK 7600 (an older model), Korg EK-50L, Casio CT-X 5000, and finally, the Yamaha PSR SX 700, which is a more premium keyboard.
This will mark the completion of my plan.
If I'm successful, I may hold a special event with the Roland E600, an arranger keyboard over 20 years old.
I'm considering trying the same approach with this keyboard, though I'm undecided due to its older styles, which include many marches and waltzes.
A second round of arranger keyboards may follow, but it's too early to say. I'm just starting the first round.
Follow my blog for more information over time.

I will also include the playlists from the sessions conducted here. They feature simple chord progressions, yet some have a 'catchy' sound.
I'll begin by outlining the four rounds that are available. As mentioned, I started with the Casio WK 7600, an arranger keyboard from 2012, purchased for 431€. It's not outstanding, but it's not terrible either—certainly adequate for beginners. It has 260 styles.
There are five major genre sections: Pop/Rock/Dance under one button, Jazz/European under another, followed by Latin, World/Various, and Piano Rhythms, making up five genre buttons in total.
Thus, each round comprises five styles from five different genres, which I conveniently refer to as rounds.
