Two very different arrangers...
Feature wise and navigational layout
I will leave the answer to Fran Carango to explain..

Both keybeds are fine for me. The Yamaha is slightly different, maybe the Roland is a trifle faster. Not much difference really.

I think they are pretty close. Piano players would most likely prefer semi-weighted action. These are not, but they both fit my style of play very well.

Thanks again...For my use a 76 key semi-weighted, because I love some full Piano use...In order to get that I guess the Genos is about it at this time....A lot of $$$$ though. The Korg 76 Pro wasn't to My liking. JUST ME... Keep saving I guess.

Harold I don't want to hear that about quitting music keep searching maybe it doesn't have to be an arranger keyboard there are so many nice units out there take a look at Nord, Kurzweil, etc,

Hi Harold,
ever considered a digital piano?
Can’t believe the variety available nowadays.
Portable , with or without arranger functions.
Consoles with arranger functions ranging from simple bass and drum , thru to full fledged arranger.

Personally I wanted to try a bit of piano playing again, away from my arranger, so I bought a 73 note portable p121 just to see if I enjoy it. It also has some simple bass and drum patterns.

At this stage I haven’t bothered trying to midi my sx900 to the piano , might get the necessary bits to do it down the track.
