Nielshs, perhaps you can re-post your song(s) again. I for one really 'enjoyed' it. smile

Though I don't agree with Nielshs' assessment about Tyros 4 (afterall, I do own one and love the sound),
since he owns/owned both a T3 (but not a T4 wink ) and G70 at the same time, I respect his personal opinion, albeit bluntly presented.


Yes, I heard Nielshs's music, and it was basically pretty good, although a tad sterile and a bit emotionless...probably due to that "bluntness" in personality being carried over into the presentation/interpretation of music.

However, a bit of talent shouldn't be an excuse to slam keyboards over and over...especially since sound is strictly a personal choice and preference.

Impressed by his playing? It was good, I agree. smile

Impressed by his manners. Nope, I'm afraid not. smirk

Scott, I deal with professionals nearly everyday, from all over the world, and we always share the basic skills of politeness, in spite of language and cultural differences...but, I guess having this skill isn't as well distributed among pros as I thought, or our lad isn't as professional as he likes to pretend he is.

And yes, I agree...Montunoman is right...it's not the keyboard but keyboardist that matters the most.

PS...T3 and T4 are markedly different, so owning/playing a T3 doesn't really qualify anyone to judge the Tyros4, in my opinion.
