Johnny,
VERY nice rendition of Flamingo: it happens to be one of my favorite songs, and I am glad to say that you did it justice.

John Jwyvern, wonderful piece of music! That rhythm change is interesting for sure. Nice piano setting on the T2, is that your tweaked version?

Eddie, nice job as well.

Manuel what can I say? We've talked in past and as you know I have a copy of your tunes on CD and regularly listen to and enjoy it. I guess I will add I'm anxious to hear what you record on your PA800.

I was referring to Mr. ScottYee, although my statement fits my good friend Scott L. also.

Eddie, beautiful, You gave so much to the song – honored the melody and kept the rhythm interesting in the background. It has class, thanks.

Manuel, you’re hired, your music sounds very professional, it’s good.

I love this, I am hearing music being played with a keyboard. This should not be instrumentals and no vocals – It should be instrumentals and vocals or vocals with an instrumental solo.
Your post might contain the name of the keyboard used, the style and instruments used.

This feel s good, positive, thanks.

John C.

John I had a little trouble open your song –my fault. Your song is well played, nice. It sounds like you have the hands of a piano player, I envy that.
I just bought my first Ipod at age 76 ha – your song without doubt will be in it.
Thanks, John C,.

Thanks for listening and the comments guys.
Bruno - maybe the fact the file was .wma not mp3 threw you to start with - sorry about that
Natural tendency for me is to revert to piano style playing where possible and the first section was full KB layered with strings. All others were with split KB.

Zuki & Stephen-
The piano is the Ty2 LiveGrand but heavily tweaked every which-way affecting the tone, touch response & stereo presence (best felt when heard "live"). In fact it's in 2 halves (in R1 lower-midrange & R2 mid-upper)with tweaks tailored to the optimum for each half.
Each half played separately sounds peculiar but together they blend to make quite a nice piano for a piece of plastic - to my ears anyway-lol!
It shouldn't make a difference to any decision on S900 vs Ty2 Zuki since the "best" Ty2 Grand presets are also available on the S900 (Voice nos. 0/113/1 & 0/114/1).

The fact that TY2 has 3 RH voices over the 2 on the S900 would carry more weight for me (not sure if I intended that pun or not!) - but that's an opinion of one who's a home player.

Nice to hear the good music offered by Manuel, Eddie - & Scott L whom I mention specifically because my previous comments were related to Scott Y -hehe!!!
No problem, there are even more Johns around on Forums in general, believe me

John (wyvern)

Hi jwyvern

That was a great sound and I liked your interpretation of Flamingo. I've been playing Return To Me as a latin and I noticed the first few notes of Flamingo are identical. I may turn that into a medley.

Hi Eddie

I was surprised to hear you do September Song as a latin. I thought I was the only one

I first heard Red Nichols and his Five Pennies do that song as a latin at the bridge but a standard beat for the A section. I started doing it as a latin in the '80's.
