I've noticed on my new psr740 that when I am using high tempos and complex styles the tempo occasionally stalls momentarily. Was wondering if any one knows if this can be fixed?. Apart from that I think the instrument is brilliant, particularly for gigging as it is so light and has the internal equalizer for different rooms / venues. Thanks to all for earlier advice also...regards....keygar

Yes this is apparently caused by the limited processor speed and power used in the PSR740. It uses the same CPU as the 730, whilst it managed that machine ok I reckon the 740 could do with something beefier. I've looked over the schematics for the 740 and although it may be possible to overclock the CPU, this might have some detrimental effect on other devices in the keyboard. I'll look into this and let you all know the outcome.

Thanks Simon, perhaps yamaha could come up with a processor chip upgrade for the 740 or something along those lines.....keygar
