Graham....appreciate the honesty....so many are overwhelmed by the hype blinding their decisions......with so many talking about stripping down the styles to eliminate all the FLUFF which you hear in T3/T2 styles whats the sense of sounding canned...less is more IMO.
Thank you for your reply hope you had a good time there.

Now....that's a nice, very nice model... I wander if it's from Roland, Wersi, Yamaha, Korg, or Ketron..AND I bet it has some form of Super Articulation??? Lee
Yamaha markets the TYROS to the H O M E market. Thats the way its been and that's the way it will be. Somehow I don;t think the US is considered an important market for the TYROS, The profit in the Clavinovas is far higher and the Tyros is sold as an alternative at many or even all Yamaha authorized Piano/Clavinova dealers and not often found in MI only music stores. I have not seen many Arrangers in MI only music stores come to think of it.
That's the way I see it and have no inside information, But we get tons of literature on the Clavinovas and all of them on the floor. They all sell. The Tyros literature is on the same pages as the PSR Series.
We sell Clavinovas 20-1 over the Tyros. The S900 sells mostly around here to Latinos. But this is SC and not exactly a hip market.
But it is a live music market makes me wonder.
My complaint about many keyboards over the years are the too modern sounds which become dated. Thats what I like about Yamaha. Their sounds have been more generic.
Shalager9sp) music is generic apparently in Europe. I'll find a way to use it for fun.

Yeah, I thought the same and even thought of posting a picture of the "other" Heidi, but was afraid of offending someone... but Tony had the right idea!

Ok, I have been busy lately, and I haven't been on this forum for a while, didn't read many newspapers... but dayum! Couldn't ANYONE warn me that GERMANY is no longer part of the western world??

HELLO??!! Is it true after all? Do Americans REALLY think that their country's borders mark the end of the Western World??? Are you really that ignorant?
If you would understand German, you would hear Michael say in the first words into the demo, that this is a SPECIFIC demo for SPECIFIC (German, Austrian) musical styles, and that there will be many more demos to follow. The fact that it is in English only didn't ring a bell?
