The Audya has dedicated volume sliders for drums, bass, chords, left and lead parts. If the bass is too loud, it takes a split second to slide it down. Same with drums.
This is also true for vocal and vocal harmony parts, midi, wav, loop and MP3s.
The T3 demos sound very good for this type of music. It shouldn't be necessary to have to edit the drums to make them sound passable though.
Turn on the Audya or a Roland and it sounds good just as it comes from the factory. This is not so on any of the recent Yamahas that I've owned. They all needed extensive e.q. and style balance editing.
Yamaha has many wonderful features and sounds. It's just that the drums are the weakest part, in my opinion.
Show me a good rim shot on the Tyros and I'll shut up.
