I wouldn't expect the sounds to be quite as top notch as dedicated modules / samples. There just isn't going to be the kind of sample rom available for that. That said, it does sound very nice, at least in the demos.

I agree with Don though, not that I really know what the Ketron drums sound like anyway, but I always thought the Yamaha arranger drum sounds to be a bit "soft" vs the PA80 and other keyboards out there. It's all a matter of personal taste anyway, but for me many of the lead voices even on the original Tyros are light years ahead of their counterparts on the PA80... but those danged drums.. I don't know how to describe it.. the word "sleepy" comes to mind as I type this. Oops.. OTOH.. maybe it's me that's sleepy.. I woke up too early bthis morning

Pretty sounding demos though. The sounds are certainly going to be good enough for me as a live player.
