Diki, Did a comparison exercise and offer the following comments: "Compare with Grand X" - SRX11 stands out more, brighter, fuller more resonant on bass notes, but does require re-balancing when played with a style, as it can overpower. "Music played" - anything, Bach, Blues, Ballads, Boogie, usually rythmic, be it jazz, pop or even classical. "Mono performance" - can't really comment, I use stereo and I understand many of the piano samples require stereo to get the full effect. Small room of mine, with monitors 1.5 metre to left and right doesn't lend itself to any sophisticated trial. "Velocity Curves" - too subtle for me, I hit the keys and play, haven't got involved with velocity curves. Diki, I hope I have added a little something to the knowledge base. Keith

Originally posted by Diki: How do you feel it compares to the 'GrandX' patch? Hi, I own a Fantom XR with the SRX 11 card and can confirm that its piano is brighter compared with the internal piano (which is supposed to be a Bosendorfer, so it's no big surprise that it sounds darker compared with the piano in the SRX 11, which should be a Steinway). My opinion is that, to achieve a better sound, you have to copy the patches you like in the user memory and tweak them, working especially on the compressor and the Equalizer (both the System Eq and the Eq you can find in the Multi-FX section). I guess that both the Fantom X and the G-70 require some work to sound really good. Regards, A.
