Assuredly the sound in that video is not doctored. Yamaha and Remo have been VERY explicit about that. You can hear the bleed, stick sound. It's all there. Keep in mind the player and tuning make a huge difference.
But the real kicker is - they just don't need to doctor sound. They make products that truly sound THAT good.
There are LOTS of videos of the PHX's on youtube, from amateur concert shots to in studio - they all sound amazing.
Here's a great player named Steve Holmes, playing his PHX's. Raw sound off the mics.

It just is what it is.

Haha who needs to do their homework now? MCA's were phased out a LONG time ago....
Hahahha pretty funny stuff. I didn't read any of that ranting either. But I'm sure it's rather entertaining!
