There are lots of guys and gals on the PSR Tutorial forum who had other brands of keyboards in the recent past, and some, such as Bill, who just added a Korg to his array of boards. Now, he is probably right in that Yamaha will sell one Hell of a lot of the new S970s when they become available here and abroad. Lets face it - it's one Hell of a good sounding machine with a huge array of great features. Why wouldn't it sell? All the best, Gary Because two knobs and an arpeggiator are not enough reason for most to uograde from an 950 to a 970? Because for most 950 owners their current sound is allready good enough and all they need to shine... _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

At least the 970 will have some room for voice expansion. That said, it still boggles my mind, that in this day and age, a keyboard can list for over $2,000 and still not have a significantly large size internal hard drive. Even cheaper laptops have gigabyte drives. Strange. Edited by guitpic1 (07/02/15 09:14 PM) _________________________ It’s all about the learning

However, those that are still playing a 900 or 910 would likely jump into a 970, which would be a big upgrade.

[/quote] The keyboard that got us interested in using arrangers for a gig was the PSR E423...few years back. That board has two live controllers on it. We assigned one of those controllers to tempo...used it all the time live...very handy to have. Edited by guitpic1 (07/03/15 11:37 AM) _________________________ It’s all about the learning
