I have watched nearly every SX920 video that has been uploaded to Youtube...

I still cant believe they persist with the FSB keybed - it kills me. It has been one of the biggest disasters of the SX900 / SX700 range...

I sold my SX 900 a few months ago after 3 years of ownership (from new), I just simply couldn't handle it any longer. I am not a gigging musician - I only play at home for a hobby.

The only thing preventing the keybed from rattling and clacking is some grease that they apply underneath the keys to lubricate them. The grease wears off within a few weeks... at least once a year I opened up the keyboard and replaced the grease. And when I did replace the grease - I packed in ALOT of grease - as much as I possibly could... but rest assure it eventually wore off and the clacking / rattling came back.

No other keyboard I have ever owned has EVER had this issue... even my 25 years old technics Kn6000 has held up - the keys have some rubber underneath them (which is still intact) instead of grease...


To discuss the demos of the PSR SX920 - I feel like watching "Arranger keyboards for dummies", seriously - its become so basic!! They arp on about features that have existed in arrangers for 20+ years (including older Yamaha PSR and Tyros arrangers).

I notice a lot of talk about how beautiful the keyboard casing is... ITS THE SAME as the previous models... the ONLY change is they have added white indicators on the 2 assignable live controller knobs...

In all honesty the only real feasible features that set the SX920 apart from its predecessor is the SA2 voices (and they have only added a small selection of them), AND the CFX concert piano (which really should have been in the SX900 to start with).

It really needed the new reverb system they added into the Genos2 in my opinion but I wasn't expecting that - we probably need to wait for another 10 years of PSR evolution for that feature to trickle down...
