Mark is definatly the man to speak to, Don.
You want my honest opinion on the psr2000? It's TOO cheap. They goofed when they put so many features into a mid priced unit, because alot of us are playing the crap out of them on a daily basis, and finding out that some things are just not ready yet.
This keyboard should have been at least $500 more BUT - it should have had a hard drive option, better keys and NO bugs.
I spoke with Mark Anderson at length, during the "Ryan's Hope" deal, and told him that, as a pro - I wanted to see Yamaha build the line upo like the car manufacturers do. Small medium and large, but all available with good engines and tires!
For example:
1)psr1000 - scaled down, home user oriented. Great sounds and styles, good solid keys, no disk drive, no mic input, and low power speakers.
2)psr2000 - same sounds & styles, same solid keys, but add a disk drive, mic input, line inputs, and a better sound system.
3)psr3000 - Pro model all the way - Hard disk and harmonizer added, more ram for styles and upgradable slots, option of 61 or 76 keys.
See the pattern?
Kinda like that - upgrade each model as it goes higher, but all have the same, basic starting block.
Makes more sense to me, anyway.
