Yep, still have the Tyros4 and playing it every day. Lately I've been experimenting more with its internal effects (echo, delay etc.) and still having fun with vocoding using a little Yamaha mono synth (no midi) plugged into the T4.

No gigging...I don't miss it...just a few private recording projects to keep myself in the game.

Yamaha's SA/SA2 sounds, superb FSX keybed, and somewhat exclusive and very awesome "Freeplay" (rubato?) styles (not to mention a great choice of jazz styles including some ballads that have cool double tempo) has kept me firmly in the Yamaha camp despite other brands having some handy features (i.e. Korg's chord sequencer) and interesting sounds/styles.

Still a Yamaha fanboy and proud of it. smile

PS...are you still using a PSR?


Hi Ian good to hear your playing and please make yourself known on SZ players miss your input. I had a KORG Pa3x, S950, S970 then a KORG Pa4x which I miss dearly, and now again a S970 of which is pretty decent with the control knobs,and with some help can sound really good...but the KORG Pa4x still has my musical heart as it's features are just simply amazing for a gigging player/singer for sure,....I'm thinking of getting another one soon too we'll see,....anyway keep in touch with us and good luck with your music!! keys
