Hi Fran,
I guess this kind of thing is always down to personal opinion and I am sure the E80 to many will be a graet board, the sounds i particularly struggle with are the Brass and the saxaphones which all seem very brash and bold where some elements of subtlety should be there and are sadly lacking. I have never used a Ketron before so am a little nervouis of committing myself - but at least the E80 can go back!
Regards
Mark

Maybe you are too use to the Tyros2 sounds to like another brand..

Personally I preferred the G70 sounds ..hands down over the Tyros2....It is just individual preference..

What sounds did you not like on the E80?

I always thought the Yamaha XG sounds were collectively bad, and a few like the saxes were downright terrible..

If you are trying to add complimentary sounds..I believe the sounds on these new boards will be like the previous boards [SD1 and PA1x]..If you like them you will like the new boards..
