Hi all. I could not understand why Yamaha have to make stuppid changes in each new keyboard. When talking about the beat indicator LEDs, the PSR 8000 was excellent, the PSR 9000 looks funny, with big, wide LED's, and PSR 2000 is the worst. Why can't they stay with one way? Do somebody out there remember the old PSR-6300? Remember how easy it was? Everything so clear. Lately all manufecturers decided to put everything into an LCD screen, and nothing onboard. The PSR 8000 used to have song rew/ff/pause buttons onboard, PSR9000 deletes this feature. PSR 8000 doesn't have a TEMPO DIAL, no "Touch" button onboard. In other words, every new model brings a lot of new features, ant deletes some others. Is that normal? Instead of making better and better, they making crazy?

Before the PSR-2000 arrived, I thought it will be a great keyboard, meaning most features of the PSR-9000, minus the sampling and other stuff like that which people like me arne't interested in. But I'm a little disapointed. The Drums are far not the real ones as the 9000. It's the basic drum kits of the old PSR-630. I think that even the PSR-740's drum kits are more real than the PSR-2000.

One thing, I asked Yamaha a long time ago, I was first happy to see. To put LED indicators on the registration memories. As Roland, Technics and others are doing. But while trying it out, I got more upset and disapointed: who needs red and green lights? Are this traffic lights? Why couldn't they make everything simple like the competitors? When will Yamaha have make a keyboard all people should like it?

PSR-2000 deletes a nice feature from the PSR-740: Count Intro & Simple Ending. Adding stuppid features, like a demo of each sound, is not a good "trade off"...

I don't want to put this keyboard as garbage. In overall it's a nice keyboard, And maybe I would buy it soon. But if, and I hope that, Yamaha is reading this board they should know what's bothers me...

Hope next keyboard will be better (Not just the same, with changing color LCD... as PSR 550...)

Sorry for my English, hope everybody understand. Comments? Reply!
