Nelson Riddle, Juan Esquivel, Gerald Wilson, Henry Mancini, all great arrangers. They all have pretty realistic drums. Although Esquivel could be a bit unreal at times, but made amazing use of percussion.

Spalding,

I cannot recall what if anything you could adjust on the Korg and Roland keyboard's drum kit sounds, mainly because I didn't have either long enough to dig deeply into the OS of either. On Yamaha keyboards, however, you can adjust a number of sound parameters on each component of any style. If's an onboard style you can save the settings to a registration, or run the style through the keyboard's onboard style creator program, make the changes and save the style as a user or third-party style. If it's a third party style to begin with, you can save the changes directly to the style without going through the style creator program.

If you look under the lessons tab of the PSR Tutorial's home page you'll find detailed instructions of tuning style files.

Cheers,

Gary

You take out the chord sequencer.

If you read my statement again, you will notice that I was not refering to individual effects, but rather to Sections or Blocks of effects available to a user.
Don't get me wrong I never said that the Korg or Roland drums sounded bad. All I wanted to say is that there is potential and tools to make the drums sound decent.

Bomba6: you can check the video how you can improve tour Psr's drums without changing your Yamaha arranger. You can buy a sound module or use another keyboard. Check this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhY_t-NajR0

Ps By the way your nickname in Spanish means "bomb". Kind of funny coming from Israel. No offense I'm a (non religious) Jewish too.

Thank you for your comment Leezone. I'm not saying this is better than anything else but probably easier to do than most think keeping the huge Yamaha style library. I guess the Audya is not avavilable in Israel (like in my country) unless you import it.
