Not 100% sure But I don't think Yamaha gave Jeremy a PSR-X900 to Play and give His opinion on the Keyboard...All his comments come from listening to Videos...Maybe a little hurt and ticked! Time will tell...Harold

what is the reasoning for that selection?


Korg has more sound options like a synth. What i really like is a modx from Yamaha but i am not sure if you can play styles on a modx like you can on a arranger.

This topic has been beaten to death on this forum so many times...more than I care to count. The bottom line from my perspective, is there is no panacea when it comes to arranger keyboards. They all have there pluses and minuses. I, personally have always gravitated back to Yamaha. I’ve had all brands any many models. Yamaha for me, is just more fun to play. Now that they’ve taken serious steps to level the playing field (touch screen, better drum samples, better keybed, better d to a converters, and for me...multiple outputs) this only reinforces my decision. It also seems to integrate well with Cubase...which is my DAW of choice.
So suffice to say...to each his own when purchasing an arranger keyboard. Enjoy what you choose to play. There are no wrong decisions. Just my 2 cents.

I totally agree, but I think the video from Jeremy was potentially a dig at Yamaha, possibly a personal dig, as already been said maybe he didn't get his way with an SX900 for review. Also, if it had to be a comparison video, wouldn't it made more sense to review it against the SX700?

As usual the best arranger keyboard is the one that suits your personal requirements, which is why comparisons are pretty much pointless, however demo's are good to help you narrow down your selection.
Yamaha bought Steinberg (Who make Cubase) a good few years ago, with many of the sounds in the later versions of their VSTs having quite a large Yamaha input.

I'm puzzled why Yamaha have produce a new board (SX900) without After-Touch on a (£2000 UK) Keyboard.

Hi,
I didn’t bother watching it all, but did he actually have an sx900 to compare it too.
Haven’t actually seen a clip of him with an sx900 ?.
I saw one clip where he was complaining about Yamaha not giving him one to test.

Missed that one, but before that Jeremy did say that Yamaha was ignoring him, while Korg and Casio were happy to provide him with instruments to make reviews.
