saw tyros 2 at Frankfurt and talked with one of the team. 300 MB of wave rom, built in hard drive, usb, internet etc etc. Only a plastic box on display and a few minutes demo from a tape, long way to go to finished product. The new thing will be real time mega voice play. The keyboard senses the timing and "style" of right hand play and assigns multi samples dynamically to simulate the acoustic instrument sound for example with appropriate breath or finger noises etc. So a slow softly played legato saxophone will portamento between notes automatically as the real thing might then switch to sounding the attack of each new played note on more forceful normal play. This will make multisample play significantly easier than existing mega voice which cannot really be played live without sounding pretty laboured avoiding the respective velocity zones and was only designed for style programming. You will have to wait till at least October for launch.

If the above is true, I will wait to buy a used Tyros, or maybe find one on the street because it's owner would drop it accidentally, while rushing to buy the new one.
If the above is not true, then precious bandwidth is lost.

That was the info at the special invitation closed non-public demo at the Music Messe. The fact there was no public demo yet gives away the timescales involved.

I am surprised that there are not more post on this topic as yet. In other threads, in addition to calling other members “kids” and saying that recent postings are OT, this topic (about the beloved Tyros and its possible upgrade) is exactly what every one is asking for (arranger topic).

Technicsplayer,
I do not wish to insult with the "if the above is true" remark, I merely express the high blood pressure and accelerated heartbeats and also the scepticism that will accompany these news. It is almost what many here are hoping for, and if you mentioned 6 octaves, then, hospitals would have a lot of customers today.

to the genesys,
It may be too early on a Sunday to post in the US, here it is 8.42pm.

Let's see how it develops.

In other words, just as we can see at the pictures,
a kind of a stealth bomber?

hmmmm. wonder if we actually would suffer the wrath of Yamaha if I (or someone else here) decided to post the Tyros2 pics now.

Does Yamaha really have any LEGAL grounds to stand on to prevent one from posting them? In addition, how do we REALLY know that it was Yamaha (and not merely someone else) that threatened suit & demanded they be pulled. Never heard from Steve Deming (our official Yamaha USA Synthzone member) about this one. Steve, what's Yamaha's OFFICIAL position? Just curious. - Scott
