Anyone have any clue if this keyboad can play PSR/TYROS styles? Did not find any info from the YAMAHA web site but I was hoping it does and able to load the PSR styles.

Thanks

It's a Motif spinoff. Got nothing to do with the arranger line at all.

No.it's a basic light midi controller with some motif sounds and USB to device for song playback/save data etc.(very MM6 like without the style variation part). Too bad that can't be bus powered. Price is only 100-200 $ less than Krome so I don't know what YAMAHA was thinking ( small LCD and unlike Mox series ). I played one and was not impressed except for it's weight and cut/shape.
