Another nail in the coffin of the T5. (Yamaha need to do something quick if they wish to stay in the TOTL Arranger market)

....."You got no clue about Yamaha Tyros obviously, and what makes it so popular, sadly almost non of these T5 buyers has much use for these new features on the Pa4x. They just want to sit and play and enjoy whats in the T5...

They are not people that want to create their own stuff, they just want to copy and paste from somewhere and enjoy it playing their favourite alltime tunes..


But outside of the edditing, Yamaha delivers big time..."



Good points presented, but in regards to the Tyros 5 owners being mostly " sit and play ", I would have to add that most owners that buy arranger keyboards ( any brand ), buy mostly for the out of the box " sit and play " ability. That goes for Korg arrangers also.

The remaining smaller percentage buy the arranger for the editing features, plus arranging abilities with the end result to get the most authentic sound they can. As far as editing, composing, arranging, and performing, the Tyros 5 still delivers " big time " beyond just the sit and play experience.

The Korg PA3X/PA4X does present some nice deeper editing abilities in some areas, but just as " sit and play " as the next arranger. Style editing is very important and 90% of my styles, multi pads, midi songs, ensemble registrations, OTS settings, custom voices and drum kits are either created new or modified from the " sit and play " default. Deep editing beyond Style Creator, Multipad Creator, or Voice Creator can be made within the Yamaha Expansion Manager or large amount of PC programs available ( mostly free).

In other words, beyond the sit and play experience, you have the choice of the tools the TOTL arranger presents to create your content and musical arrangement from inception to performance and recording. One's needs and opinions can certainly be quite different, but for the most part a lot of arranger users invest in the TOLT arranger because of the editing abilities.
