Danny, I was hoping to try the Tyros4 yesterday, but AJ's supplier had none..they are selling all ..as they trickle in to stock...In his case I believe it was 2 units in..and 2 out immediately..

We did get a chance to demo the Audya line..if you guys are interested ..I can post some of my impressions...maybe on another thread so we do not conflict this post anymore than we have already..

That are inaccurate....

Ian quote "Again, I raise the curious reluctance of Roland to make the GW-8 a 76'er...since you state that particular market is, "The one last uncontested market segment...!"

Yet they chose to make two 61 note versions of the same instrument, even with all those old unused E-60 keybeds cluttering up the factory floor."

Don't worry about Roland ..my bet they have the best return on investment in the business...


Well Fran, they did refuse to make a 76 out of the GW-8...two 61's, one without speakers (duh!)...I guess we'll just have to put it down as another blunder.

I'm not worried about Roland either...they may catch up in the future, but they have lost valuable time and customer confidence...I know you'll stick with them, but Yamaha and Korg, and Audya have snagged a lot of clients that may never return.

I was just commenting on Diki's statement, referring to 76 note arrangers, "The one last uncontested market segment...!"

The reality is the G-70/E-60 produced no offspring.

Ian,

'I'm not worried about Roland either...they may catch up in the future, but they have lost valuable time and customer confidence...I know you'll stick with them, but Yamaha and Korg, and Audya have snagged a lot of clients that may never return.'


Exactly, that's why it's not so good to loose 76 key arranger bussines to competition. May be hard to get them back.

Danny,
As soon as the local store has the T4...I will spend a full day with it and post my findings. They have T3's in stock..so it should be easy to compare.

I think losing a few TOTL 76 arranger clients is hardly a worry at Yamaha...considering that limited field is jammed with Korg, Audya, and now Wersi...

Each will now have a small piece of a small pie.

Yamaha knows it's market well.

Well... Thanks for all those who have emailed me with their opinions, comparisons and thoughts, I really apreciated them.

But..what does that say about this forum hey? Someone posts a topic, wanting an honest & genuine opinion about an instrument but it seems like people are too reluctant to post anything of their own (unbiased) opinion without getting a pounding for it...

It's a shame though, I've been coming to this forum for over 10 years now and it's changed so much for the worse.

I think we need to appoint a few more admins here, George Kaye would make a great Admin!!!


Danny,

There is an old saying SSDD " same s...t different day" I know who and what you mean, it's like an old echo.
