John Smies,

Right on the money ...Couldn't have said it better myself if I tried, especially now that I have both boards. In a way, getting the 2000 inspired me to go back and work a little more to better understand and be able to use the rest of the features on the PA80 that maybe I wasn't as familiar with before, and in doing so and practicing as you said, I now find it to be just as easy to navigate as any Yamaha board I've ever had. The 2000 is still a good board for the price, but the PA80 is just so much more for me.
