Here is the same song, I chose piano because that is where I can hear differences best, played on Tyros and Genos.
Do you think a person in the audience can hear the difference ?
Cheers

Hello Kaarlo.
First let me congratulate you on the excellent playing of both Alley Cat and the
Boogie styles.
I have downloaded both and have been listening for a couple of days now through
two very high quality sets of headphones, and even asked my wife to join me in
listening.
She is a trained Classical Pianist, so I asked her to listen to the songs through both
sets of headphones , then asked if she noticed any difference between the two
versions. She noticed none.
Then i asked if she liked any particular version, without me
saying which keyboard was being played.
She actually liked the T5 versions better, both times.
I did notice a difference, just that, a difference.
That means that none of the keyboards sounded better than the other.
They were just slightly different,
Those in an audience who WANT to hear a difference, will swear by all that
they hold holy that they hear a difference.
Others will just concentrate keenly on the person doing the actual playing.
Trying to decided whether that person has what it takes.
Audiences today are very savvy, and you have to pound them with good playing
all night, before they finally admit that they are impressed.
Being able to play a simple song from beginning to end without mistakes will not
impress them.
They want to see you thrash the life out of the Piano or keyboard.
And if you can do that and sing as well, all the better.
They will quickly spot a button pusher, and once they do, you're cooked.
Nothing you will do for the rest of the evening, will change their minds.
They will not notice, or care, whether one keyboard sounds slightly better than the
other. It is the last thing on their minds.
Best Regards.
Abby.
