I'm wondering how much was involved in making those files sound so good.



Well, I don't know about how they did the demos at Ketron's site; however, be aware that what both Mac and I posted are MP3 versions of the files. All I did was click the render button and let it record through. Although I didn't apply any effects, I did normalize the WAV form before converting to MP3. I don't know if Mac normalized his files, but that can result in a different sound. Mac's were encoded at 128; my file was at 192. That can make a difference in sound quality right there. The WAV file sounds even better. I had originally encoded the COWBOY demo at 128, but didn't like the sound, so I upped it to 192. The styles used can also make a difference as well.

The Ketron is an awesome instrument, as far as I'm concerned. Not perfect, but then again, it's MIDI. I wish I had another one for my 2nd computer.
