Me, I'd like to see a 76 on the S900's successor (as an option!). That NP30 action ought to work within Yamaha's budget... Oh, and better MIDI implementation. They would sell a LOT more to people trying to integrate them with other arrangers and workstations if that was possible.


Well my friend, generally when everything is "alright", I tend to focus more on what I have, than what I don't have, or wish I had...I tend to live in the "now" a lot...doesn't work for everybody, but it's what I need to keep a balance in my life.

I imagine NP-30 keybed would be okay on an S900, although I'm not sure if I'd like having a graded touch when I'm mainly using the instrument for accompaniment and RH melody...it would be okay for piano stuff.

I suppose one could get used to it.

One would also wonder if it would be easier to make a DGX instrument with the S900 type accompaniment...it would seem to make sense for those instruments to advance to four variations per style from the two they have now.

They come in several flavors already...88 weighted GH, and 88 and 76 unweighted GH, and the 76'er is pretty portable.

Possibly it would be far more advantageous economically, to see technology that's already paid for itself in the S900 , filter down (or across) to other products.

Of course, this is all completely hypothetical, and just my active imagination bouncing out of the "now" for a few moments.
