It's interesting to hear that Yamaha is planning on voice paks for Tyros3. I wonder why they never offered them for Tyros2? I have some third party tvn voices which are very good. Yamaha should have been able to compete.............if they wanted too. Maybe the voices on Tyros3 they offer will utilize the SA2 technology?

Yamaha has used IDC since I had my PSR3000. Even since having Tyros2 I never thought they took full advantage of it. It seems there were plenty of offerings when Tyros2 was released, but I remember long blocks of time passing before mose new styles were offered. I think in the future they should promote it more and have at least new stuff every 3 months. They might find more devoted customers that way. Time will tell................ -charley
