Excellent post, Notes!

I've always wondered the same. I've heard some pretty crappy MIDI voices even on my Tyros 5 (although rare) but after they are placed in the mix, they fit like an expensive pair of leather gloves. They seem to sound natural. I think Yamaha knows this, and goes to great pains to design voices that sound good inside and outside the mix. Then there's effects, which can make or break a MIDI instrument's sound...but I digress smile.
