After reading your recent, and not so recent, posts it is quite clear that your agenda is to continually try to kick Yamaha in the butt.

Well, that can only mean one thing...they are in front.

Every knock is a boost.

You sure get upset easily...if you were playing a Yamaha, you'd only feel peace and contentment...like me.

Instead, you are just another unhappy critic.

really?

Then explain why i am very happy with my Yamaha S90ES (It even has 3 expansion boards DX,VL,AN installed) If i am allways bashing YAmaha...

No mate, the only thing that disturbs me about the Tyros line is that many of the professional feautures available in the Motif line are not avaialble in the Tyros line. Things like 76 keys, synthesizer level of sound edditing, pattern sequencer and master keyboard functionallity...

They are available tough in the Korg PA line.

I also said that Yamaha's SA sounds are the most realisitic and playable acoustic sounds avaialble in the whole industry and even the new drums in T4 got my aproval. If Yamaha crammed T4 and Motif XF in one instrument with 76 keys it would be a no boner for me.


Currently i play on my S90ES combined with an M3 module (and a borrowed V-synth) with a software setup using Ableton, cubase and live-styler which i controll with a Novation zero SL controller. But live styler doesn't cut it for me and i am in the market for a hardware arranger...

So either i was going for the new T4 if it had 76 keys to replace my S90ES.. But then it has no 76 keys and so its a none option for me.

So i'll probably end up with adding an Audya 4 to my current setup or using a mediastation in combination with my M3 if only i could convince myself of the style quallity. (i am affraid the MS will in the end give me the same feeling as i currently have with live-styler, i really liek to eddit a lot of stuff, but styles just need to be stellar quallity straight out of the box)

So now i am wayting till Korg releases their new line to make a decision.

I am overly critical before spending new money right now, because money is hard to come by these days. I am as critical towards Tyros as i am towards Korg and Lionstracs when it comes to spending well earned money.

Critical towards open arrangers you say? yes, despite me being a huge fan of the concept, i am still not convinced if they are where they need to be, vst's and midi, and audio all sound great, but stellar quallity styles are an issue for me. And i am not convinced that they will be avaialable any time soon on Lionstracs instruments. I want as much freedom as possible but i also want an instrument thats perfect sounding straight out of the box, i am not as good a musician as James or NEdim that can just create his own stellar content with an instrument like the Groove or the mediastation.

So yes i am critical, but this allows me to see the strongs and weeks of any brand, but also it saddens me because in my search for the perfect arranger/synth workstation i can see flaws in any model. Combined with my technical knowledge that it is possible for Yamaha and Korg to produce such an instrument at the same costprice as their current line of instruments.


And thats the difference between you and me, i am critical about all and everything, but you try to sweettalk everyone intoo beleiving that YAmaha is the perfect instrument for all of us... Well rest asured, Yamaha has some demonstrators that can do this much better, just talk to Voncken Baartmans or Rietdijk overhere in the Netherlands and half an hour later you know for sure that a T4 is the perfect instruments for you, nomatter what your actuall needs are.

But then when these people state their opinion somewhere everyone knows they work for Yamaha and people vallue that knowledge. But you with you Halleluya Yamaha attitude pretending to be nuetral in the matter, you try to push your opinion about Yamaha all the time, which makes you blind for the obvious flaws in Yamaha instruments.
