I for one would LOVE to hear the new T3 guitar mode, doing this kind of stuff... Lots of changes, and very complex jazz chords with decent voice leading.

If it can pull it off to this degree of realism, it's a definite step forward. I'm not sure how many here realize just how inaccurate most arranger's guitar chords are. Korg have made progress, now Yamaha, but until I hear it on material that truly taxes it, rather than simple stuff, you never really know.

How many of us have played recently with a world class guitarist? Refreshing your ears with the real thing can make you less than overwhelmed by most arranger patterns...

In the meantime, you want this degree of accuracy? I'm afraid an SMF (probably made on a MIDI guitar) is about as close as you are going to get. But, don't forget those Mark/Jump buttons... want to rearrange the song during play, even if it IS an SMF? No problem. Want to do a key change on the last time through? No problem. Want to revoice it to more electronic textures with one push of a button? No problem. Want to change the jazz guitar to an acoustic for a verse (and change back for the last)? No problem.

SMF's, unless you are terminally lazy, are NOT the set in stone things they used to be

The title of this tread is: Just recorded on the G70

Maybe there is a difference between "recorded" and played?

Happy Playing

Btw, Frans recording is quite similiar to the Tune1000 file mentione above.

Excellent Fran, WOW what a sound the G70 has!! Its sounds so live !
Thanx

So... are you going to buy one... again?
Or are you just going to settle one more time with the polished, compressed sound of a Yamaha? Maybe you plan to add some Burt Bacharach tunes to your repertoire?

Oh Dr. Andrea yes all of that.......you just can't argue with success just ask Ian

You have reached the pinnacle of success as soon as you become uninterested in money, compliments, or publicity.

How ya doin' so far, Sunshine?

Oh Ian I'm eating crow for breakfast today with a sprinkling of S900

They sure are more flexible, I imagine, but lets say you want to change a pesky Am7 to a F#m7b5...just because you feel it sounds better.

You could punch in and record all the parts, but how many will be able to do that, or how many will bother?

I still love the control of being able to choose my own chords, or my own style/arrangement of a tune seconds before I play it, or even change a style half way through a piece...

SMF are probably perfect for many people, but not everyone needs, or wants, to use them.

Ian

Ian why do you think Yamaha has invested alot of R&D money & hours to include a SMF sequencer on many of their models?

I've eaten that dish a few times myself, Donny, many people will take pleasure with the experience of watching you eat crow.

Smart aleck words, smiley faces--they will pull out every trick in the book to make you feel as small as the period at the end of this sentence.

When you eat crow it is up to you how it goes down. I find a bit of laughter helps grease the palate...wash it down with a few chuckles, and then get on with enjoying your talents.
