However, I can say, that I was so suitable impressed, to trade-in my Tyros 2 with hard drive and Dimms plus lots of cash, for a new Tyros 4, which I hope to get near the end of Oct.
I had the same full demonstrations of the Tyros 3 but I was still happy with the Tyros 2, but the jump from the 2 to the 4 is a really huge improvement.
IIn short, the Drums are much better, the Choirs and do wops, are amazing. The overall sound has improved ( lots more than T2, but for T3 owners not as much as a leap but still improved due to the drums and sa voices in the styles). As other people have said, if you can get a live demo go for it. Other than that the u tube videos give an impression but not the whole story. I still haven't played the Tyros4 myself and accept there will be a learning curve to use the new facilities.
To Be Continued ................

Carol, thank you for persevering and thank you for the excellent unbiased review.
My apologies for any part I might have played in the degeneration of the thread.
I expect to have my Tyros4 in a few weeks, and your review has heightened my excitement even more.
I had the same perception as you about the big leap from Tyros2 to T4 and the smaller jump from Tyros3 to Tyros4, and I have heard others express the same insight.
Thanks again for returning to the thread, and I am looking forward to your review of the Tyros4 after spending some time with it.
