Well sure, but by then everyone will be whining about it not being just like the T3....it's like saying that the PSR-3000 was closer to the Tyros I than the PSR-2100 was..... [/QUOTE]

Only the completely deluded are expecting Yamaha to make a $1500 arranger with most of the capabilities of their $4000 arranger. Once their $4000 arranger has capabilities far beyond current specs, THEN we'll see the mid-line get current TOTL features. Yamaha ARE trying to make a profit..... and they really don't seem to like adding new capabilities to existing models to ease the pain, unlike Korg and Roland (et al).

I still think that the SA voices (especially if they include the guitars and saxes) more than compensate for other, missing TOTL features. They really are THAT good.... (if you can learn to 'play' them).
