I know Gary and others have put countless hours into editing and improving Yammie drums, but to me...they are not strong enough.

I love the ability to just grab a knob on the sd40 and adjust volume quickly. The sd90 has taken that capability to another level. So from an old studio guy...knobs and faders are awesome. I’m to lazy to dig into sub-menus to adjust levels and eq. To me...the more individual control of each instrument the better. That way...you can make styles much more customizable. We’ll have wait and see if the new sx900 offers easier control of this.

Well, if you like knobs and faders, the live controlls on Genos are incredible.. set them up,once and controll your hearts delight..

Its one of the things that makes me love the Genos..

You can notice that primitive style programming / lack of dynamics in Korg IMHO.

Transitions from chord to chord on the Korg always felt rather 'lumpy' and it seemed easier for the Korg to get the wrong interpretation of a chord.


I believe someone mentioned before that coding language ( for styles) that Yamaha uses is different from Korg and Roland. That could be the reason for chord interpretation of timeliness.
