The guitar parts on the T3 (compared to the S900) are noticeably better, to my ears, but they were already very, very good to begin with.

Regarding SA2 to SA1...I like having a voice decay when I use a sustain pedal...like a piano sound decays...the SA2, while very realistic, do not decay, but rather sustain at the same volume until the pedal is released.

I'm used to using the sus pedal to allow the volume to drop, rather than use a volume pedal...all the S900 Panel voices behave that way.

If I was playing in a duo, or in a small band, and using the arranger functions, I would definitely use a volume pedal so I could solo and comp more easily.

All big companies have their problems...as I said, a lot happens between conception and production...sometimes it's the bean counters that win....sometimes, the engineers.

I think the S910 will be a sweet deal, but I already really like the S900 a lot...the screen is no problem for me, and I've got it sounding the way I like.

More styles aren't that important to me...but, I will have a very close look at it before I stay with the S900....who knows, I might really find something I can't do without, but, if I don't, I'm content to stay as is.

Seems the button layout is the same, and I'm doubtful if the mod wheel is assignable to Leslie speed...that would be really nice...if some of the new SA sounds are organ, they just might have rotary controlled by mod wheel.
