Ian,

what's amazing is that:
you CAN hear the "lack" of FULL complex chords on audio guitar , (addition of midi notes)
but CANNOT hear that as a whole,
the AUDYA rocks the socks off over T3, for "in your face, LIVE sound"

also, in your opinion, what's the backbone of a band?
if you had to pick 1 instrument...what's the foundation?

would you not say bass? and drums?
and everything else is gravy...

but you have the RIGHT to hate AUDYA, ONLY if you TRY it like me,
i doubted it, but when i heard it, and played it next to my G-70, NO COMPARISON, for my music of course :-)

play it and you will not be thinking of that one midi guitar note...

don't hate midi so much, cuz YAMAHA uses it ALL the time,
so stick to Yamaha my friend :-)
