You might also want to check and see if you can lock the "local off" function so that you can change screens without the d*mn thing going back to local on. I may have missed it, but so far I can't find any way to do that on the Tyros I.

I personally am not concerned about the key number or size or feel (since I know they are putting in the FS keybed, same as is on the MotifES) but I won't even consider it if it still has those limitations. It makes it almost useless in a midi studio as a sound module even though it does still have some very good controller capabilities.

Hi Tom,

Have you set up a midi template to do what you want? That is one of the few things I have no problem with on Tyros. I have several different ones that I can call up.

And you are absolutley right about the voice/DSP limitations. I have ordered a Motif Rack ES to keep me going while I finally and at last send Tyros to CA to repair. I am think of insuring it for $5k and hope that UPS drops it like they do my good stuff.

RE 2, I am sure I will have to order it sight unseen, just like I did Tyros. But my wife really wants me to find a store that has one even if we have to drive to DC or NY. (I live in VA. Beach.
