I do not care how a sound is generated, so the analogy is not too apt. I just want the sounds to be made in real time by a human. Otherwise, it does not move me and often bugs me. I do not care if a keyboard is electric or acoustic for example, same with the drums. I am not against electronics or computers. This is only an opinion from no one important. Peace and goodwill.

Don't let the word "programmed" confuse you. Most times it means that the musician has played the song into a MIDI sequencer such as Logic, Cubase, or Sonar using real sounds in real-time. Here is an example:

Best answer ever!


It's possible to see both sides of this and agree with both.

"I Am In No Way Confused" would be a great title for a great smooth jazz record. However, I don't know of any artist that are ready to make that record when they are all following a backwards-looking trend.

I have yet to hear a really great smooth jazz record in 2010!

Try to put all those samples as real instruments into a studio and it would be totally overcrowded. You couldn't pay all these instruments by the way.

So to listen the difference between an original Rhodes and a sample is something for the expert, if you have really good samples with 4 gigabytes and above. Brian Culbertson's macs have 16 gigabytes ram.

Depends on your definition of smooth jazz but Jeff Lorber's new record is really good! Also, judging by Brian Culbertson's video blog, I'll assume that record is going to be hot as well!

I could have sworn on one of his video blogs, Brian was playing a 'real' Rhodes!

He was using Lounge Lizard which is a software instrument that emulates the Rhodes and Wurlitzer. In other videos he is playing the new Mark 7 Rhodes.

The new Lorber is okay but nothing special. It's one of the many backwards-looking, retrospective records from the many that are out in the market.
