Donny, if it's the same size, weight and shape as the T4 it's gonna be heavy and bulky - not a good thing for old timers like me and DonM.

Gary cool

If they can keep it around the same weight as the Tyros4, especially the 76 note version, I think that may satisfy a lot of people.

The Tyros4 weighs about 33 lbs.

No one is suggesting a touch screen as a substitute for buttons you actually NEED while playing, Tostie. Primarily, you tend to use a touch screen on the gig for performance or sound selection, a few other things. But the majority is and can be done by the switches, footswitches, etc..

The REALLY big plus with a touch screen comes when you are editing. It speeds things up to the point where you actually look forward to doing chores you used to avoid if you could!

Yamaha may have done THEIR 'research', but obviously, it doesn't match what Roland and Korg have found out. Arrangers AND workstations are far easier to run with touch screens. Having used both touch and non-touch arrangers and workstations, I can only say without hesitation, a touch screen makes life MUCH easier. Yamaha need to wake up. A touch screen isn't supposed to REPLACE buttons needed, live. It is supposed to ADD so very much more...

So far, three touch screens (my two G70's and my Korg Triton), zero issues. In truth, Gary, do you think the majority of the world would have gone to touch devices if they were as problematical as you have just had? Sorry you have had a bad experience, but most of us aren't having the same experience.

Never had a touch screen fail yet, but I've lots of Yamaha button problems. On Tyros 2 I had the paint wear off, they receded into the case, some got hard to press, etc. Maybe the same people make them as make the strip that goes under the keys! smile

This appears legit but can't confirm 100%...it was posted at PSR Tutorial.

Could this be the Yamaha Tyros5 76 note?

It does seems legit.
Someone took a quick shot, and cleared the background (painted it white).

The left end cheek appears designed to allow for both 61 and 76 note applications.

The right end cheek appears less wide on this 76 note model than what is on the present 61 note Tyros4 and the USB port has been moved to a position above the keyboard (on the T4 it is directly to the right at the same level).

Someone posted these prices, again these are not confirmed:

76 keys...Euro 3.800

61 keys...Euro 3.600

The color is allegedly silver.

Stand, speakers and flash card are not included ( extra options ).

I'm sure there will be more information to follow, and perhaps confirmation of previous specs.

Again, posted picture and specs and prices have not been confirmed.
