I'm glad so many people can use 3000's (I had one for a week and gave tt to my granddaughter), Tyros ( I,II...whatever).

The important thing is to play what YOU can use to produce the results YOU WANT!

So what are you playing nowadays Russ?

Even though I'm waiting for a 76 key Tyros2, which btw may never happen, I do feel it is the best Arranger Keyboard on the soon to be market. Hardly a toy in my estimation. Especially when you consider Yamaha has improved the keybed, which supposedly will be more suited for the traditional Piano player with a more Piano like touch. With such statements as you gave it appears you've given up on Arrangers or Keyboards in general and are instead using a real Grand Piano or possibly a Clavinova CVP-309 or something similar??

If you are using a real Grand then unfortunately you will only get a Piano sound out of it. If you are using a CVP-309 then congratulations Russ! You have the best of both worlds. But you wouldn't be able to transport it to Gigs because of its weight. A Grand Piano either for that matter.

Enter the Tyros2...

Best regards,
Mike
