Bill,

I gave it another listen through a good 2.1 It does sound better than the first time I heard it. The sounds... I couldn`t find a significant improvement in the sound from the 910. I will need to try it out once its available in stores before making a more accurate comparison.

By the way, it was very nice playing !! Thanks for sharing rolandfan.

Korg is launching the Krome and Pa600 here and I would be attending that and will report later.

I just listened to this demo and then went over to my 950..........If this is a 950 it has to be playing just standard GM sound bank! A 950 would be using superarticulation guitars where you would be hearing all the nuances of a real guitar and the drum set snare I hear is this demo sounds like the old Yamaha keyboards with to much compression and not the "real drum" kit used in almost all the 950 styles. It sure doesn't sound like my 950!

I have a 950 in my store and this demo doesn't even come close to sounding like a 950. Drum sounds are weak and the guitar parts couldn't possibly be using the new kits in the 950. If it is played on a 950 it sounds like it's only using the old XG voices and nothing else!
I'm telling you..............don't think this demo is a true picture of what the 950 sounds like...........it's not even close to what is so good about it.

I agree George...not a 950, and maybe not even a 910. I think the video maker had the 9 upside down, and it's a 650. smile...A Korg conspiracy?

the demos Impuls provided us with are the real thing! Notice the live cymbals, the guitar voices with all the SA characteristics.
