I think he depends more on the Yamaha gimmicks than actually playing realistically.. It is also very noticible ..everything he plays is like playing a piano..Real horn players ..lay back a bit in phrasing...that alone would help..
I have an old VHS tape, maybe I can convert it to an MP4...It is Roland's Eric Persing, in mid 80's demo of Roland samples with I think an A series controller..He used a breath controller...as Diki mentions if you are thinking or in this case playing as a breath player...it comes across as real..
BTW: the sample library Eric was using did sound every bit as real as today's stuff..
Just my opinion Meet Eric..
Tony, I think you should read my post again...or better yet, have someone read it to you I read at least 3 other comments that agree with my opinions.."Realistic way of playing a flute, sax, trumpet.." If it has to be explained any clearer to you...you just don't get it!!
Lionstracs owner is "Dom" not "Don"..another example of senile Hopefully the only thing you are shooting with...is a camera..we don't need another wacko out there with a gun..
