Some years ago I attended a Yamaha Electone concert by a Japanese visitor to a dealership here in SoCal. It was an amazing presentation and I recall him doing a Japanese yeowl voice by hitting one specific key on the organ. It was great. He also mentioned that the reason the registrations and voices sound so real is that they are actual digital recordings of that instrument. Example: A trumpet played a Mid C note and was recorded. When hitting the middle C on the organ and the trumpet stop is pressed, guess what you get. A replay of that actual recording. What a concept. No wonder the Yamaha excels so well in musical instruments. Hmmm, I wonder if when pressing the "Organ" button you get a playback of a Hammond?

Hmmm. I thought everyone knew the answer to this one. There just is
not enough sample memory left over in the instrument to do acoustic
piano, which is a very complex sound, a very well known sound, and a
sound that everybody prefers differently.

When you have loud arguments about which dedicated large sample set
pianos sound good, how can Clavia win?

They stuck it in there as a bonus, but now I bet they wish they had
just left it out.
