That's an interesting why to look at it Scott but I think a Tyros 4 (or any other keyboard out there) can only serve as an approximate assimilation of an acoustic instrument. Any pro sax player playing a Selmer will sound better and achieve results not possilbe on a keyboard.


OK, I'll go with that. There are two new excellent soprano's on the T4, the Ballad Soprano and Pop Soprano. Let's then consider two student grade Yamaha brand soprano saxes. They would go for around what you can buy a T4 for and I'm pretty sure the T4 will sound better than two novice sax players honkin' away rotfl bounce (joke)

Actually, now that I think about it. The thing that would give away that the T4 isn't exactly real is all the notes will have perfect intonation, something that is quite hard even for pro sax players. Listen to Buddy Rich's recording of Dancing Men sometime. They have 2 sopranos playing the lead line in unison for awhile, they are so far out of tune it sounds like a cat fight laugh

You know the old musicican's joke. What's the difference between a soprano sax and a lawn mower? You can tune a lawn mower rotfl
