We have all this speculation going on now that the gods at Yamaha have hinted that there is going to be a new Tyros 3. Well let me tell you how this is going to play out.

The Yamaha fans are worshiping at the alter waiting for the third coming. They pray to the gods at Yamaha to PLEASE give them a hint, a peek, a factory leak about what the new Ty3 will have on it.

It leaks out that there are more Super Duper articulated voices on this baby. A SDA (Super Duper Articulated) Kazoo will be included for the first time. The realism will be stunning. Next SDA voice will be a new bagpipe so real you could shoot it. They are going to up the ante to 6 multipads even though most players hardly use 1. The Yammie zealots go nuts!

It doesn't matter to the Yammie fans that it's the same old toy vocalizer and crappy drums. We have been blessed.

Of course the piano players will whine that there are STILL only 61 keys. When oh when are they going to make this third coming in a 76 key model. They pray fervently for 76 keys. The organ players will still not care that there only 61 keys and Uncle Dave will still not use it because it has no internal speakers.

Diki will still prefer his G70. Fran will go and try one out and give us a great report but in the end say his G70 is the greatest.

Abacus will compare it to the Wersi. It doesn't matter that Wersi is ten times the price not portable and service, parts and availability are atainable only in England.

Squeak will tell us that the Casio is almost as good for $399.00.

Don Mason will buy it sight unseen, play it for 6 months, and dump it for a Ketron MidJay.

Boo will remind us that his antique Korg has 8 and 16 bar loops.

Donny will buy it and play it for 2 days or 2 hours (take your pick on this one) and dump it for his S900.

We Zoneeers will start a pool to pick the day and hour Donny dumps it.

If this sounds like the movie groundhog day that's because it is. It's the "Same old S***) just a different day.

Before the lynch mob assembles I'm just having a little fun.

Tom

Tom....
Are you sure about that SDA Kazoo? If true, I'm in. Maybe after Donny does his 2-day break in period, he will sell me his.

Nice one Tom

I will let you know how good the Kazoo is in about 3 - 4 weeks or so.

About those crappy drums: I was told today that the drums are all new in the Tyros 3.
