It's amazing how the bashing continues. Yamaha is listening and incorporated a few major things:
1. vocal harmonizer
2. scat / human voices
3. tuned drums option
4. more styles - more articulation
At the very least it is one company that moves forward, very quickly. Lord only knows what the unveil next and it may be too late for the competition to catch up.
As for pricing - do you expect a company to digress in MAP?
I haven't owned Y since the 910 days, but the major things missing for me (for live play) have been addressed ONLY in the T4.
Zuki great points and ditto to your comments.
I don't get it, the bashing, that is. Maybe I'm just a naive SOB who lives in the smallest state in the union, who doesn't know any better. Yea, I'm a part time musician who can't hold a candle to many of the talented people here who make a living playing music.
I don't see the point of bashing any arranger, I've had every major brand in the last 4 years with the exception of Ketron. If it's not for me I sell it but I don't find a need to say it sucks or it's junk or it's priced too high or or too low or because the manufacturer is trying to steal my money by incrementally upgrading every 2 years or whatever their time line is.
To quote Ian "Don't like it...don't buy it."
You gotta admit SZ does come alive when it comes to comparing brands and the mine is better than yours syndrome.
