Comment
This style demonstrates a modern high quality production. Listen to Intro II leading into Main B to
hear a realistic band sound of today.
Ultimate realism is a main focus of Tyros2. Listen to the new Mega Tenor Sax in Intro III.
No matter what genre, Tyros2 will deliver uncanny realism. Listen to the Disco Strings, Mega Brass
and Mega Solid guitar in both Intro II and Intro III. You can play many 70's Disco favourites.
An authentic Big Band sound which has had a recent revival. Great for many Big Band/Jazz stan-
dards sung by some of the greats. Listen to the Brass shakes in Intro III.
This genre is also typical of the late seventies. If you sit back and close your eyes, it is tough to
differentiate between a keyboard and the real thing. Listen to Intro III follwed by MainD.
Another great R&B flavour. This really shows off the New Mega Tenor Sax and Mega Brass. Listen
to both Intro II and Intro III.
Country music covers many different sound fields and styles. With EasyCountry you can hear a
very typical laid back singer song writer image. Great for many standards.
A typical sing-a-long country feel with a very high quality production. Listen to Intro III to hear a
straight to point Country image.
This style can be used for almost all bossa nova standards. Intro II demonstrates an unbelievable
Mega Nylon guitar complete with slides and noises for extra realism. Intro III introduces the Sax
but with a much softer tone.
Take your partner by the hand and dance the night away. The Ballroom category caters for all
Ballroom dancing music to the highest level. Listen to both Intro II and Intro III. When you hear the
Trumpets come in, you could be sitting in front of a real Ballroom Orchestra.
To show the versatlity of style genres, just play the Intros and Mains of this style. You're immedi-
ately taken into the 17th Century.
A big Entertainment genre is that of the Euro organist of the 60's and 70's. This style is very
versatile covering many songs, but this shows the power of Tyros2 whether you are listening to
Orchestral realism or straight forward organ music. It's all unbelievable.
A great Celtic sound which has become very popular over recent years. Play either Intro which will
take you on a journey to Ireland. This will also remind many of great movie scores.
