When you talk about discovering all the possibilities of a Tyros 3, yes it is time-consuming. Nevertheless it took in total less work to create my collebction of Tyros 3 arrangements then my KN7 songs. I was with the KN7 often lucky that stepmode recording was easier than on a Tyros, because I needed it much more often. All my tyros songs are played and recorded real-time.

I do not understand, I sit at a keyboard, ty3 or Kn7, select my style, choose my instrumentation and tempo press start and record. Where does it differ? I neither use a Music Finder (Yamaha) and never the Music stylist. (Kn7)

When you are recording live and you are talented and free of error the recordings turn out equally great on either keyboard. But if you decide to fine tune a sequence there is a difference, a large one, the Kn7 is friendly.

Please excuse me, but I must differ: The settings on Tyros are by far in greater depth then the Kn7. There is far more technology which translates into you must do more to do to get an acceptable result. This makes the Tyros better in one are and the Kn7 better in another --- But the Tyros does requires far more attention.

To understand and be honest we must go back to Audrey who has the mind of the Kn7000 and the transition is far more difficult than someone who has been playing a RSR3000 Yamaha. At times I felt overcome -- or to use my good friends statement, “I could throw it off the bridge into the approaching traffic”. Audrey no easy job. I love a challenge so I found it a bit different.
