Just wait till the next Tyros (or whatever they call it)comes to life. I am sure it will be a keyboard that will please us all.

Good video clearly showing of the differences, love the sound of the PA4x.. esp[escially when styles are used it seems a little more realistic.. tough i think that can only be heared in a direct comparrisson.. Tough where they use the freeplay stylepart with the strings on the T5, it shows some of the strengths of the T5.. The piano of the pa4x is almost on par with the Kronos, but that has 5 of them,,, drums and styles really will make the pa4x sell

Some of the strong points of the T5 didnt make the video, SA2 voices, organ world and ensemble for excample..

In the end, i would be happy with both, tough there is no reason to change from t5 to pa4x, the differences except for the piano can only be heared in a direct comparisson.. and when i do a feature comparrison, the T5 still has some things to offer over the pa4x when it comes to options... where the pa4x has the better controll scheme..

I dare call this a draw?

Online demos are not the best way to tell what an instrument sounds like in the real world, (You don’t know what they are connected to and recording/processing system used) however I have to say the Korg wins hands down, as a lot of the sounds and styles do sound like what I am used to listening to live music. (Real players and instruments)

I must admit the more I hear the T5, the more I can understand why a lot of owners have gone back to a T4, as overall the T4 just sounds more real. (Roll on T6 as if Yamaha follow form it will be a real cracker)

Don’t forget if Korg follows form, in a few months down the line Korg will probably add a lot more features and sounds in a free update. (Roland used to do the same)

The Motif replacement called montage is knockling at the Doors of Winter Namm, there Yamaha will show of the technollogy one can expect with the Tyros 6..

This montage combined with Varranger and external Karma running on a tablet PC might even be the perfect soundsouyce for Yamaha styles.. Unless offcourse Yamaha themselves add an ipad app that allows you to play styles using the sounds of the Montage...

It's interesting to hear you say that the Tyros 4 sounds more real. I wonder how many on this forum feel the same way?
