I haven't had the opportunity to see the T3 or play one, but the demos I have seen are impressive. Of course, hearing new styles is always impressive, and those SA2 voices are indeed a nice improvement.

In the end, I'd have to agree w/you....that the T2 still holds a lot of value. As a result, it's a difficult decision for sure. One that you will have to make based on carefully weighing what you are going to give up and what you are going to gain, and how much you will use the new features that T2 doesn't provide.

Best of luck w/your decision and keep us posted!

In your case $1000 is worth the move in my opinion if you like the Yamaha boards in general.. Double the wave ROM, The sliders, hard drive, TFT screen and 200 plus more voices,100 new styles, the revamped EFX engine allowing separate EFX for each instrument in a style, intelligent guitar voicing...

749 Voices + 20 Organ Flutes + 480 XG Voices + 256 GM2 Voice + 35 Drum/SFX kits
23 mega vs 18
11 SA2 vs None
53 SA1 vs 42

More cool,live....Premium voices and voice pack expandable.


Verses

504 (486 Normal + 18 Mega) + 10 Organ Flute + 480 XG + 256 GM2 + 22 Drum kits + 6 SFX kits


yeah I think $1000 is worth it,The revamped EFX engine is worth 1/2 that alone
