Rikki, wow your arrangers are all gone!!! Amazing.

It is starting to look like I should keep my advice to myself. Two of you are saying the sYnerGi GS wavetable does not sound that good. I wonder why that is:

Are you using high/good quality effects, e.g., chorus and reverbs?

Are you using high/good quality equalizer?

If you are not this could improve the quality of your sound. Keep in mind that when you use a Yamaha keyboard you end up with at least their default effects. This is much better than none.

But it is all in the ears of the beholder. I found the sYnerGi GS right out of the box not that bad - with effects applied. I have since modified this wavetable considerably. You should know the modifications are as simple as removing say a piano you do not like and replacing it with one that you may like better. Using something like Soundfaction's Alive this would take all of 25 seconds. Furthermore, you could always invest in something like Kontakt and premium voices, e.g., Bardstown's Bosendorfer piano for your melody/lead/left hand virtual instruments.

Well, may be I should just remain silent on this subject!!! The last thing I want to do is mislead people and at worst cause them to spend money on things that do not work for them. Sorry if I caused you significant problems and financial pain.
