I see your point Fran, although I am enamored by the SA2 Jazz Trumpet, not for it's "cutting" ability, but for it's silkiness and response to player technique. It still sits very well in the mix, at least for my taste...we all have different ideas of what sounds best.

There are several SA Trumpets in the Tyros4 that cut more, but I prefer the warmth, smoothness, and expressiveness of the one Peter demoed above.
