Well, Lee, it may rock the socks off anything out there, but it's not worth a soot to me if the guitar parts are improperly voiced and sound like soot.

You heard them on the demo and didn't like them, but now your opinion has changed...that's fine, you obviously are more concerned with a rough and ready sound, than one that is more refined, detailed, and correct.

Anyone who plays jazz (and sophisticated Pop) would be very concerned how a keyboard handles root notes/inversion, and rootless voicing, as well as anyone who plays Latin (properly).

I'm glad the Audya appeals to you...so far I'm not convinced, but I am willing to be educated and learn more about how the Audya processes audio/midi guitar chords.

I said in an earlier post, the Audya, like the Tyros3/PSR-S910 won't appeal to every-one's taste, and needs, and style of play.

I don't do dance stuff...I mostly do recording now and I like having and hearing details in the music that are correct and refined.

That's why I use Yamaha arrangers...if I wanted to go with bingity bangity dancy type stuff with emphasized bass and drums, I might choose something along the lines of the Audya, but more likely it would be Roland (or maybe Korg)...although I can get a pretty potent sound out of the S910 with some style editing and EQ'ing.

I'm sorry I don't share your enthusiasm for the Audya just yet...when are you buying one? When it is fixed? Or, do you believe it is exactly what you want right now?

If so, why aren't you playing one? Surely it can't be the price? It rocks the socks off everything, so whatever it costs, it would have to be part of your kit.

I know if I felt that way about an instrument, I'd have it right away.

Personally, I'm with Diki...I think you're just dreaming.
