so changing registrations on the fly, are not as seamless as changing from one variation to the other?

The only problem changing from one registration to another with different sounds (in the left or right part of the keyboard) is that the effect processor resets to the new sounds. This has the unpleasant consequence to cut abruptly the sounds from the first registration; this annoying effect is shared also by other Yamaha keyboards (like the Motif), while Roland (G-70 and also Motif) seem to be immune.
For this reason, if a Reg. has a sound that tends to linger (like a synth pad) I try to avoid playing new notes just before switching from one Reg. to the next.

Doc...

Andrea's explanation exactly it.....
on top of those sound hiccups with all those Registration changes within just ONE Song you tend to get lost in the mix sometimes especially if your going to "Medley" a few different songs or want to extend it really limits your arrangement versus using one Reg & just feeding off that, IMHO.
What do you actually want to do ?

I was hoping for a way to save something this way:

Piano Bar Venue
Set 1: 30 songs
Set 2: 30 songs
Set 3: 30 songs
Set 4: 30 songs

Or
Piano Bar Venue: 120 songs

And one for each venue:

Wedding Venue: 120 songs
Christmas Party: 120 songs


This can be accomplished relatively easy with registrations, MFD or any combination of the two. If someone that lives in your area has a Tyros2 or PSR-S900 and good working knowledge of the operating system, they can easily walk you through the process before you decide to purchase. And, I highly recommend this, regardless of which brand or model you select.

Good Luck,

Gary

The guys in the store don't know squat...

Is there like an online tutorial of some sort that shows this method?

www.psrtutorial.com makes this fairly easy.

That gave me a lot more information about this. Now all I'm wondering is this:

1. is it possible to have 1 registration entry trigger a fill first and then go to a certain style, or style section? Say when doing a medley for instance. And this will sound seamless?

2. does the 9000 pro also have this feature?

And regarding the 9000 pro, is there any where on the web where I can listen to it? I can get one for about $700 less than the S900 or PA1X pro. And the 76 keys look promising. But since it's old I'm a bit hesitant.

sounds like your on a budget....for 76 keys under a grand Id be looking for a Roland G1000... although a bit older it certainly has so many features that are so useful as an arranger/workstation, etc etc ...
