I don't know how much better the Genos sounds above the T4 or T5 but Deane is a credible guy, I never expected to hear the positive comment he made.

Isnt that a personal prefference?

You can only decide that for yourself, after playing them side by side for a reasoable time..

Tahts why i have allways sticked to feature comparissons, and even they are very personal, everyone has its own wants and needs..

I am having quite some discussiions over on psr tutorial with people that domt seem to understand that other people use their arrangers in a different way then they do..

Great song choice. You played two of my favorite songs, Deep Purple and All the Way. There have been many great jazz interpretations of those tunes, which is a testament to their versatility and enduring beauty. I can't comment on the comparison of the three arrangers except to say that they all sound like TOTL arrangers and all three could 'do the job' with this type of gig. I think it's mostly a matter of personal preference on the part of the PLAYER, not the audience. JMO.

I like the Ketron SD-7 the best. It sounds so authentic to my ear. Everything sounds so balanced.

I'll agree with that SD7 definitely sounds more realistic...

Thanx for all the demos Dean enjoy!

Deane,

Thanks for the video update. Enjoyed the performance, the picture quality was very good.

What camera are you using to record the performance?

Regards,

Jerryghr

Tx Deane. It appears each keyboard was played through a different PA?

Based on those videos, I would rate the keyboards overall sound:

(1) Ketron SD7
(2). PA4X
(3). Genos
