I was told that after the newness wears off, most people typically use ony 12 voices on their keyboards. That sounds about right, I use about 12 voices. 700 voices are wasted on me, and I am not impressed. What a waste of wave ROM space that could have been used for quality sounds instead of quantity. Yamaha says,"Yamaha dedicates extra time and resources to these special voices" (sweet voices). Why not dedicate extra time and resources to 20 voices, and blow the competition away? Roland has 3500 sounds on their EM55, but the flute on the PSR550 blows it away. How about a Sweet concert Grand, sweet organ, sweet strings,etc. I would be impressed by that. Yamaha announces their 1st Sweet PSR keyboard. Wishfull thinking. Sigh.
