There is a Premium Pan Flute Voice that was introduced for Tyros 3 that you can also buy for the Tyros 4.

That may be the one Lee is referring to, Joe. I don't have it, so, unfortunately, I can't comment to him on how "squeaky" it is, or if there are any odd responses to note play.

Ian:

I don't think that is BrathySax SA2. I use it all the time on my T3. This sounds more like Live Tenor Sax.

Here's a couple of my original works that use BreathySax SA2

Into the Night: http://www.box.net/shared/adnsji2zzc
It is in the last verse.

NightSky: http://www.box.net/shared/27gof6xvbr
Used throughout.

Very nice original music, Joe, and a great impression of a Sax...Breathy Sax SA2 is my favorite too, although I'm really liking the Tyros4's Ballad Soprano SA2 for a different flavor.

Thanks, Ian.

Yes T4 has some great sounds. I especially like the new Orchestral Choirs for Soundtracks and the Horns. However I still can't justify an upgrade for the differences. In fact if I buy anything I think it will be a Motif, or a Kurzweil Workstation to compliment the T3.

I didn't realize you COULD edit out the velocity switched layers in preset voices.

Tell me how this is done, please...

Joe,
Those 2 samples...exactly what I like..very well played.
Is the Sax you used sensitive to aftertouch as well as velocity?
If I want more bite after the initial note on...can I press harder to get it...while the note is playing?

ALso..Is there a heavy handed, barking Bari Sax (Think Tower of Power)? You know the one that shakes the walls!
Thanks

Diki, I'm unable to access layers with voice edit on my T 3. Those SA effects can pretty much be kept quiet by not depressing ART 1 or 2 buttons. Ian would probably know any tricks for this.
regards, chuck

But the velocity switched effects still come in whether you need them or not, right?

This is my major issue with them, to be honest. Most of them have NO musical connection between the effect and velocity. You can hammer-on a guitar very quietly, and you can play a single note loudly without a hammer-on. Or, a sax growl can be done quietly and a straight note as loud as you can... But, on those kinds of patches, you CAN'T.

I'd rather all those performance effects were tasked to footswitches than made velocity sensitive.

I'm not sure about the after-touch feature, but I believe it does respond to after-touch as well.

For that barking Baratone sax, they have a growl sax that is touch sensitive that sounds great when you're playing Honky Tonk Part II by Bill Doggett.
