Yes, the Yamaha pianos work very well in a mix, but play solo piano on them, they start to show their weaknesses. Better to have a solid solo piano and cut the mids with EQ, that to not have a great solo piano in it at all.

IMO, etc., etc.!


Nah...in my opinion they sound great solo and/or in the mix. I couldn't want for anything better...seriously!

Again, it's always going to be one's personal idea of what constitutes the ideal piano sound.

You like Roland's piano sounds, as per the G-70...I couldn't warm up to any of the pianos on it...they just don't work for my style of playing.

I do remember the Rhodes emulations were rather nice, but the acoustics just didn't have what I like to hear.

I'm spoiled.
