I personally think that the examples posted leave a lot to be desired. But I believe we have to praise Bill for bothering to post them. Bill is constantly contributing "heads up" information relevant to every brand or interest, WITHOUT trying to "color" it.

In my personal opinion, setting suitable sound levels for the style mix is not a "tweak" by itself, I also think that the examples posted needed some minor adjustments and that the final result would be better, without losing the "OOTB" quality.

Even then, and I hope it doesn't sound like blasphemy, the styles themselves remind me of my Casio. The actual sounds are better of course, but nothing I can't achieve using VSTs. To my (headphoned) ears, it sounded like a mix of Roland HyperCanvas VST and / Hypersonic 2 GM library, say 1/3 Hypercanvas - 2/3 Hypersonic 2 GM. Serve cold.
