Andrea . . . Wow awesome! Your impressive LIVE PLAYED song demos come thru not only with astounding realism, but are captured with much instrumentally moving emotion, especially your guitar playing on Chega De Saudade. I've honestly NEVER heard a better guitar emulated rendition of this song on a keyboard in my entire life. I believe Tom Jobim himself would be astounded to learn this was performed on a keyboard. BRAVO!

Andrea, your LIVE demos demonstrate what ten thousand words cannot do justice to. For the most realistic sounding acoustic music emulation . . . . Tyros2 RULES ! I also appreciated your demo of the T2 'oriental style' . How many Oriental styles & instrument (other than GM/XG) voices does the the T2 include? This offers a great opportunity (at least for me) to finally easily experiment with fusing Eastern grooves with Western melodies. Andrea, your demo not only displays what the Tyros2 offers, but how much you have grown (since you became a SZ member here) as a musicianship yourself. I look forward to our 'next visit' and the opportunity to have fun again playing music together with you again. Berkeley awaits your return.

In closing: To any continuing Tyros2 skeptics: time to visit your local audiologist to get your hearing checked.
