The brass on the T2 puts away the T1 ANYDAY.

Mike nice job......

Thanx for sharing your efforts and thoughts about the T1....I agree with many of them also.

Mike, I have to tell you..I am glad I own a Roland..

Mike come on...a trumpet player has to breathe...you are holding notes way to long and phrasing too long without a breath...
The sax I thought was terrible, way too low..I think possibly the Tyros2 has to sound better...I know my board does..

I appreciate your effort, but why showcase this tune...this way?

Scott can you post this tune for us played on your T2? I for one would love to hear the differences between the T1 vs T2?

Thanx

Now I need a drink......a cup of tea will do...

Mike,

About your tune...

Very well played and a great arrangement.

One thing I did notice is that the T1(and 3k) do not give the realistic legato phrasing that the Tyros2 has on the SA Trumpet.

When there is an attack on each note, as there is in your trumpet playing, it comes off as sounding less realistic.

That's where the Tyros2 has the edge, in my opinion.

A small detail , but an important one when you are trying for authenticity.

Remember to leave good news alone.

Ian you are right most people do not realize the importance of legato..

I only read the title - not the whole thread -- and I say that the performance of my T2 by far outshines the T1. And the proof is in the pudding: I've been getting a lot more compliments on my sound since purchasing it. I would recommend the upgrade for anybody doing this professionally.

Chony.

Mike,
First, let me say that I like the style used for this tune ...

Is the piano imbedded in the style or is that you playing?

I really didn't care for the sax sounds... was that 2 or 3 saxes playing in unison?

Mike I do appreciate you submitting this for us to hear....

HI,
you fella's aren't exactly helping me make up my mind on which Yammie to get? psr3k or Tyros 2.
Both have their pluses & minuses.
Haven't heard or seen either.

As far as styles go, do they sound similar in quality or does the T2 sound much better?? Can they play each others styles without too many hassles??

For playing melody voices ie trumpets, sax , clarinet( voices in general) again are the T2 voices superior?

Is there a great deal of difference in the multipads ie can T2 multipads be played in a PSR3k & vice versa?

I have sample facilities, aftertouch etc in my SD1+, & 88 note weighted keyboard in the form of my Clavinova, so these functions are not really a consideration.

Maybe when hubby hears the price difference between the T2 , he may make the desicion for me haa haa.


best wishes
