Yamaha gave Motif owners a nice free upgrade this week. Version 1.5 gave us the new HD reverbs that are in the Tyros 5 as well as 16 new voices ( actually new versions of existing ones ) and 8 new performances plus a number of new Guitar effects. The new HD reverbs are very clean and a welcome upgrade from the already nice reverbs in the Motif. So it looks like the next TOTL Workstation from Yamaha is probably at least a year away. BTW since I run my Tyros 3 through the Motif it gets processed by the Motif effects so the new HD Reverbs have improved my Tyros 3 voices and Styles as well.
A new HD workstation by Yamaha is long overdue.. as the XF was only a minor sound upgrade to the XS..
Might be that they want to sell the last few XF workstations with this so called update.. The update itselves however gives no indication at all about a new upcomming workstation.
