Well I did/do since my T5 arrived today.
Perhaps Ensnareyou can eplain where AD-conversion takes place in the Tyros?
Perhaps Ensnareyou can explain why the T4 and T5 sound almost the same? (based on what?)

Sure Yamaha takes mono-samples, copy and panning ..... total nonsense.

I could not resist to post, I'm out of here.


The mere fact you're asking these questions tells me you know very little about the architecture of the internal workings of the sound engine used for the T4 and T5. In addition it also tells me you've probably never delved deep into the samples and programs that make up the internal programs. If you have, you'd understand why I wrote what I did.

As an FYI... utilizing mono samples allows companies to get away with less sound ROM. They then process the sound internally and with FX to make it appear to spread in the stereo spectrum. While it may be emitting and panning in stereo, it's not a true stereo sample.
