Hey man, the title o' dis thread be: "Casio's 32 Note Poly (vs) Yamaha's 32 Note Poly." squeak_D wanted to know if there was a "definitive" answer as to whether Yamaha's DGX, and YPG series have a poly drop down to 16 (or 10) notes due to the size of the voice, like the Privias have.

I think there is a definitive answer, and I think I gave it! The answer is no -- the YPG's do not drop to less than 32 notes of polyphony. There is also a 16 channel limit for MIDI files, but that's s different issue. The 16 channel limit also applies to the Privias (with the 10 note polyphony limit applying simultaneously).

So I think there's a real, substantial, functional difference between the Privias and the YPG-625 for people like me, who use more than two fingers at a time, fergawdsake.

Esh, there is too a one-size-fits-all keyboard/workstation/arranger. It's called a piano. You supply paper and pencil. Worked for Beethoven!
