Sure sounds like you've been playing a Roland FP90!!! smile smile

Sure glad I'm retired - just wish the weather would improve so I could spend more time sailing and drinking good booze. wink

Be patient, they will build it and DNJ will buy it! smile

One thing I would love to see on an arranger...even the 970. Multiple outputs would be so convenient. Kick, snare, overheads, stereo pair 1 and stereo pair 2. Mixing in the instrument is clunky for an old studio engineer like me. Can't be that expensive to add additional outs.

If i change to a other brand than yamaha i lost so much value on the software i have purchased the past 12 years , so i must stay to Yamaha
I am happy with my T5 , but there is always something to improve , for example the speed of the proccesor is not able on this moment to keep up
with the "Ensemble" voices ,when you play it fast it hick-up .
Also the voice editing must be possible on board , not with the terrible program "expansion Manager" ( so Slooooow)
And of course they must improve the drawbar effect's , more a "punchy" overdrive so that youre be able to "rock" with them .
The Piano isnt bad if you play as a pianist , as keyboardplayer it sounds to "Yamahies" , they can do a lot better (Motif/Montage)
I can go on fore a while , but we have to wait if Yamaha have listen to his customers . . .
There been some meetings with customers. . so i have good hope . . . ( i being there) ( classified :-) )

When I play my S970 S.A. piano with an 88-weighted key controller, it sounds pretty good.

A lot of what makes a piano a piano is the feel.

You do realise that with a namechange there is also a chance of the supposed new Genos nit being backward compatible? If Yamaha really wants to move forward, they need to drop some or maybe even all of the old stuff..

It will probably be our luck in that Yamaha will probably sell some extra piece of gear to purchase in order to modify, or make all the old styles compatible with the newest arranger. Or, make us purchase some kind of computer program to do the same.

That all depends on the new technollogy... And since Yamaha makes more money from their online store then from you reissuing old styles... it could just as well not happen at all.. Keep in mind that Yamaha is syill creating Tyros with homeplayers in mind, and in general they care less for backward compatibillity then gigging players..


Just saying, but there indeed have been a few rumors of the Genos not being compatible with the Tyros range styles at all...


Offcourse, if YAmaha was willing to invest... there could be 2 style players (just like there is an audio and a midi player) being totally independent of eachother... and the system using the player rquired by the file type..


It can go both ways, how important is backward compatibillity for you when buying a new arranger?
