Wow! That was a well arranged demo However, that fret noise is still way too overbearing. I've played nylon/classical guitars on many occasion be it for pleasure and performance, and have never produced that amount of fret noise, nor have I ever seen or heard anyone perform with that amount of fret noise either.

I really don't think I'm being too picky either because either it sounds natural or doesn't. Yammie is on the right track, but that fret noise really needs to be adjusted. I think it's very distracting to an otherwise "BEAUTIFUL" voice created by Yamaha.

I find the fret noise overbearing for the most part on single note changes. I noticed this in the first demo you posted and even the MP3 I just listend to from SvpWorld. The fret noise Yamaha uses on this sound from single note changes sounds like the fret noise from a chord change.

Again Yammie is on the right track here with these SA voice. Till this day I nearly wet my pants everytime I listen to the SA Saxaphone demos on Yamaha's website. Gives me chills every time.

I think in time Yammie will tone that particular nuance down, especially considering the SA technology is new.
