Probably a tad more than subtle, in my opinion.

I think the differences would be less noticeable "live", and more apparent with a recording...if that makes any sense.

Since I don't currently own an arranger (also sold the P-85, and the two Bose L1 systems...actually made a profit on the latter), I'm in the market for one...if the S910's new organ sounds are the same as the T3's, I will get the former...if not, I may buy the demo S900 I have here at a greatly reduced price.

I have a suspicion the S910 will play most, if not all, of the Tyros3's styles without a problem.

Interesting. Have you noticed whether the new guitar NTT's improve older, T2 and S900 styles, or are they compatible at all? I always worry, when an entire file format gets changed, about legacy 'favorite' styles and older ones I haven't even played, yet.

I guess how you respond to newer 'guitar modes' depends a LOT on whether you can actually recognize when the arranger is playing guitar parts 'wrong' in the first place... For me, Ketron's idea of ADDING a MIDI note to a basic chord for an extension (say the A to a C chord for a C6) sends a crawl down my spine, as all of a sudden you get a seven string guitar part where you used to have a six string!

I've said for a long time that the BEHAVIOR of arranger parts goes a LOT more towards realism than the accuracy of the sound. An average guitar voice playing EXACTLY what a guitarist would play fools the listener more than an accurate guitar voice playing something no guitar player would ever play, IMO...
