Sure...why not on the tilt..
Touch screen? Oh boy you have opened a can of worms on that one...

I love my touch screen on the Korg PAXPRO...it works well.

Danny being so far Yamaha units don't have a touch screen on their Tyros/Psr models...although it would be nice, useful & productive....
I would assume this would require a major OS design retooling & undertaking to accommodate touch.

The first keyboard I owned with touchscreen was the i30 and I think I got so used to it that I expected to see this feature on every keyboard, however, moving on from the i30 it wasn't until 4 keyboards later until I was reunited with this very useful feature, but now that I've gone the Yamaha route I miss the feature once more. I prefer touchscreen, it's quick and easy plus it also preserves the buttons on the keyboard wear itself whether it be paintwork or the switches. It would be great to have both options in future models like the i30 did.

Is a tilt screen really essential? have you ever not been able to read or view what's on the screen of your PSR?

I think a keyboard should be nice n slick

I agree. They should start including tilt screens in the MOTL psr s keyboards.

I would really like to see the "Faders" for the mixer included (like on the tyros).
Also, they should add the "File Access" button"S". like on the tyros.

I can see the S910's screen from almost every angle...in fact, it is one of the better arranger screens.

I like the setup on the S910...excellent ergonomics, and easy to navigate.

A tilt screen would be okay, but not necessary, in my opinion, and same goes for a touch screen...not really needed.
