James,

Firstly - in case you missed it - I have removed the YT Link and formally apologised to you.
Ide rather put that to rest and I am sure you would as well...

As for the Keyboard / arranger topic -

AWM for your information is on the PSR and Tyros line...
AWM 2 is the engine used on the synth line.
I actually went through this topic a while back with FranSN (and got no where but hey ill try it again)

You can pull as many facts and timeliness out about Korg and Yamaha all you want. But Korg have a TOTL Synth (M3) and what is its direct competitor? YAMAHA MOTIF

Korg have a TOTL Arranger.. what is its competitor? Yamaha Tyros.

Both instruments in each class have their equal amount of pros and cons. Not one of them is superior to another by fact. only by needs / use and personal preference.

So Yamaha have not changed their sound engine as many times as Korg. To me it makes absolutely no difference to us as users... why should it???

As long as they are updating features and samples. which they are... what's the problem here?
To me the fact that Yamaha can keep the same technology and AWM/AWM2 engine but keep on bringing out new sounds is a great innovation by itself. why make a new engine if you Don't have to??

I just don't see your point in this argument?

This argument is almost as pointless as Linux vx Windows (for example)...

now please. back onto Chony's topic...
