[quote=Beemer]Well unless I am mistaken this video has been out for some time with little sign of the sarcastic comments in this thread from certain adherents of this group.

No arranger can be correctly assessed by listening to You Tube compressed audio except of course by those blind to all but their own opinion.

"My car is faster than yours because its red" springs to my mind.

Yes I am a newbie here (with a Tyros 5/76 about to arrive) but that does not mean that I cannot detect green cheese. (If you need to, Google it)

I try to avoid controversy but just a couple of these green cheese, or blatantly provocative, comments in this thread made me post this.

The market is split across the big three or so if we all had bought Yamaha Tyros product over the last three or four years then maybe Yamaha would have released all their eggs into the basket instead of only a few just to see what the competition would do.

I say enjoy what we choose or sell it and buy another but please stop trying to influence already satisfied folk

Ian, you are totally off base..
First , this company does excellent demos..they are recorded at the same time period and use the same facility..They are uploaded at the same bitrate on youtube..So they are accurate..
Second, it was intended to be a comparison, and warrants opinions..Anyone with an open mind can understand the opinions mentioned..

Third,personally the Tyros4 was the first model I didn't dislike..I thought it was a major improvement over the Tyros3 (I owned a Tyros3 for a short time)..
Forth, the Tyros5 has some very nice effects and it can showcase better than the Tyros4..if set up properly...this video did not show well.
I failed to mention, the best sounds are still guitars...the worst are still the organs(they remind me of the poor organs on the Fantom)..

What I can see, and apparently shared by most..the opinions mentioned are on the money..
