Enough talk about whether players from OTHER 76-ers would change to a 76 Tyros or S900.

One simple question. IF Yamaha made a 76 Tyros or S900, with the exact same features, would you consider one?

Current Tyros users ONLY, please (not ex-Tyros users).

Just curious. Let's do our OWN market research...

Yes.
I have a Motif XS7 (as well as Tyros 2) 'cos I want 76 keys. Do I really need 76 keys? Perhaps not but I feel better. Who expected keyboard players to be logical?

Yes, I like to play full keyboard piano on my Ty2, often using open 9ths/10ths in the left hand so could do with the room and the better balance you get between L&R hand when swingin' at a wider stretch.
Ty3 allegedly has a better piano voice.
To a certain extent IMO that will be a bit of a waste of potential with only 61 keys (and only a "simple" sound system)

Let me put it this way, Diki...if Yamaha ONLY made a 76 note S900(or Tyros) I would buy it, but having those extra 15 keys isn't necessary for my needs.

Yes, absolutely,

Also, remember it is not graded hammer action, so it would not be much larger or heavier for you giggers.

Home use only at this time.

Does this mean Yamaha is considering offering one?

No, simply because it wouldn't fit in the trunk of my car. If my car had a wider trunk, the answer would be an unenthusiastic yes.

Not for at least three years...unless they do a 76 note S-series, which is doubtful.

They could allways do a T3 pro someday next year...

And yes i will consider any 76 modell arranger that fits my needs (replacing both my 61 key arranger and my 88 key stage piano)
