You want Hammond sounds, here you are:

Proof you can get nice sounds out of old bits of tosh, add all this kit up Rudy has here and it's much less than the cost of a new Audya, you need a bit of space though. I reckon Deane might have enough space...

Nope... just proof that superior musicianship trumps whatever dated sounds they might be playing on...

That string sound... It's been a long time since that awful Solina type string synth sound was held up as a 'nice sound' unless you are TRYING to sound dated!

Yes Diki,


I agree, you need to be a good player to get a good tune out of old gear as you well know.

what?....you need to be a good player to get a good sound period, regardless of the gear.

Not too certain about that, one chap who saw me playing said " your not playing that, it's the KB that's doing it, your just sat there" no I can't agree with you Donny, you can be average with a modern AKB and you will sound good, you would need to be bad to get clapped off stage. Or better still play to an audiance at the Tinnitus club, they won't care how you ssssssssssssssssssssssssound at least it will take away the hissssssing for a hour or so.. on the other hand you do need to get the notes in the right order.

I just cant believe the talking ratio here vs the postings of any kind of playing, ......that says it all.
This takes the code of "silence" to a whole new level. If you on sites like PSR Tutorial, etc, everyone is posting songs enjoying each others music, learning new things, I always enjoy listening to Arranger KB players.. ..is that just a Yamaha thing? or? anyway Happy New Year Everyone...just a few more gigs to go & I am done for "THIS" year.

How about you guys?..

Donny ... why not start us off for the new year by showing us what your KORG can do?

I have heard (and watched) Tony playing via Skype many times, and his fine skills are above reproach...and, the Tyros4 is just the icing on the cake.

'Nuff said!
