  Sounds like a pair of monophonic sample playback synths? Low notes sound OK, higher notes sound very strange with a mushy envelope going on.

  I love the h-chord but this one sounds (or perhaps is just being fed some poorly programmed general MIDI) plastic.

  It does sound like Youtube may have worked it;s audio magic on this one. But I agree, not big on the subtleties. Where's the key off sound? The dainty pluck of the string etc.
