Extra feature (on the 61 key as well)...probably a chord sequencer similar to Korg's.

That's a strange thing to be worried about, though, Ian. Most 76's have an equivalent 61. G70 - E80... PA2X - PA800. I doubt any manufacturer would disturb an already successful product to make ONLY a 76. But when ALL making a 76 would involve is a larger case and keybed (and leave all the innards and buttons the same), the cost of making it is only a TINY fraction of producing a new model from scratch. I can't see why Yamaha are not willing to gamble on such a low-cost bet. A small production run would definitely show them whether their 'in house' (in other words, only asking 61 users their opinions) research is accurate or not!

Glad that the CS is starting to get back into our front of consciousness. Maybe if Korg AND Yamaha all have it, Roland might get the 'me too' syndrome! Mind you, a 76 T4 with a CS? I might already have jumped ship before Roland get their lazy asses in gear!
