when i was looking for a keyboard i checked this site for how people liked their keyboards- if anyone is looking and comparing i just want to say i LOVE the yamaha 9000pro- after taking home the korg karma, the roland phantom and the yamaha motif- i (thank God) found the 9000pro- what a wonderful and easy to use keyboard- i don't know why they don't consider it a professional keyboard- maybe because it's so easy to use!!!!!!
take care,
shara
