I think the sliders on my new T3 are not well implemented. First off, Yamaha should make it so you can assign any of the sliders to anything you want on the Main page. I want to be able to control drum & percussion volumes and still be able to control right voice volumes. As Ian mentions, you must go into the Mixer page to control these. BUT, they are on different pages and you can not go directly to these pages. You must cycle through all 4 pages by repeated button pushing. This is not something easy to do while playing. It's poor.

Yamaha missed the boat on this. Korg has it down much better. I really hope Yamaha looks into improving this feature with an OS update that might make it actually useful for live playing. At the very least, Yamaha should vastly increase the possible options for the "assignable" slider. Right now, for me, the assignable slider is useless. It can only control 10 specific things, and drums or part volumes are not in the 10. If Yamaha can't improve this feature with an OS update, I guess they will want you to wait 3 years, spend $4k and get the next Tyros.
