Hello Friends,

Maybe this is my last email on this forum with a nice tip:
http://www.wikifonia.org/

Nowadays I visit a Dutch/Belgian keyboard forum which is nicer and more interesting for me. Take care all you, friends.

Kind regards, Fred

P.S. Have you seen www.music-tyros.com?

Hello Fred,

I am sorry to see you are leaving us and I cannot let you go without saying a very big "thank you" for your help over the past few years particularly for my KN SD Explorer Tool. I use it almost daily and it is invaluable to me and I am sure, to many others.

I'd like to wish you all the very best for the future. Take care.

Audrey

Hi Audrey,

Well, so now and then I will visit the site. But most threads are not very relevant for me anymore.

By the way if you visit http://www.jukeboxforum.be/jukebox.htm you will find me there and clicking on my protrait you can listen to a song from me.

Kind regards, Fred

P.S. have a look to www.music-tyros.com to de video demo of Martin Harris and then tell me your response.

Hi Fred,

Re: The Tyros3 demo. I visited the site and trawled through the whole thing. Firstly, I have to say it's difficult to pass comment on the sound because I don't have very good speakers on my PC. Having said that, I think:

1) The TFT screen will be better.
2) I like the new Super Articulation.
3) The Grand Piano is excellent.
4) Medium Big Band Shuffle is excellent
(seems very familiar - a KN copy perhaps?)
5) I like the fact that you can record
direct to the hard disk which I
understand is still an optional add-on
and for the price I would have thought
it would have been included.
6) Having a USB Port on the front is
definitely a bonus, but I would have
liked to have seen at least another
one if not more.

I did feel they should have shown the cost as that is usually the deciding factor for many people when considering a change. I understand this is going to be around £3,400 including the speakers which, by the way, haven't changed from the design of the
Tyros 2.

My local Dealer is arranging a personal demonstration in our area and I am hoping to persuade him to come to our Keyboard Club as there are one or two Yamaha fans who would be very interested. Even though I am considering getting a Tyros, the KN7 is still 'King' for me until proven otherwise.

All the best - Audrey

Hi Audrey, I purchased a Tyros 2 , 3 months ago , although i still use my great KN7 at moment, the T2 has some great sounds especially the organ section.. Will not sell my KN7 as i will still use this for some time. Chris.

Hi Audrey , I note with interest your comments on the Yamaha .
I bought a T2 it is without doubt a very good instrument as is the T3 .

I found out the hard and costly way ,that if you ,have a large ampount of technics styles and a very good reportoire that you use on gigs !!! think twice ...none of your favourite sounds /styles will work on the Yamaha ...not even via conversion software.

what you will need to do is virtually start all over again with your styles etc ...none will work to the same high standard of the Technics ...you will spend hours tweaking in a major way every style , and they will even then not be good enough to take out on gigs !!!

I expected with the tyros T2 to have all the latest gizmo and sounds ...I was not prepared to throw away years of good styles and have to redo all my entertaining routines ...i do not have the time or patience !! .......3rd party styles that are song specific are not available !!!

A prime example is the Glenn Miller sounds
all the proper intro endings that are on the Technics styles are not on yamaha and are not available for purchase .

Yamaha has many very good features .
it's just a great pity that style conversion from Technics is not one of them !!!

please note this reply is only my opinion and I have no intention of offending /upsetting any Yammie users

Regards .....giovanni

Ps ....Yes I sold the Yammie ...

Fred, sorry to see you leave the forum. I want to echo Audrey's thoughts and thank you for developing the KN SD Explorer Tool.
Best Regards,
Walt Meyer

Hi Folks,

As you see, I don't really fully leave you on this forum. Only my visiting frequency is reduced a lot.
W.r.t. Giovanny's comment I agree. Another feature I miss on the Tyros is the easy step recording. But on the other hand live playing is more easy on Tyros 2, which, Audrey, also has USB port on the front, and the back. And on Tyros 2 you can also directly record Audio to Harddisk or save you sequence directly as MIDI file. But Tyros3 as more advanced DSP system, but better stylings and again more realistic sounds. It is all a matter of taste and money. The KN7000 is/was a great keyboard, but eventually will be "old-age" and better altenratives will come.

Hi Folks,

Here is the keyboardforum I nowadays visit and participate. Although it is a Dutch forum, the music is multi-language
http://www.jukeboxforum.be/jukebox.htm


------------------

Hi Giovanni.
In your messsage you quqote "3rd party styles that are song specific are not available !!! "

I wish you had contacted me before selling - I have hundreds of song specific styles for my Tyros 2. Have a look at
http://musiciansroom.net/SongsStyles/default.aspx

to get some idea of how many are available.

I also use many converted Technics styles as well, which work very well

Anyway, good luck with whatever instrument you use and choose.

Best Wishes

John

Hi all, fun!

Last week I was the winner of the jukebox forum with playing Elton John's "Your Song":

some comment on Audrey's message, useful for others too.
W.r.t 5): Also on Tyros2 you can directly record to the hard disk and even do audio dubbing. Then when all is OK you can export it as WAV to an USB-stick for whoch is also a USB port on the front. Big difference will be: speed. T3 is USB-2 so more than ten times faster. And Tyros has a second USB on the back and there is USB-to-host. SO you can connect directly to the PC and make a full backup of Tyros HD to the PC.
The biggest change: not one but 5 DSP’s in parallel in the styles, several Superarticulation_2 and the number of Superarticulation voices have grown.
If you can arrange good speakers or a decent head phone to the PC you can listen to 45 minutes Tyros 3 music on the website I made for my dealer: www.keyboard-centrum.nl/T3/specs.htm
Now that Tyros3 comes on the market, the Tyros2 will be cheaper and many nice T2 occasions will come on the market.

Hello All,

I have been following your comments with interest. I have watched the very well produced DVD of the Tyros 3 several times (because my husband has poor sight, we have a very large TV and it's like watching a cinema screen - wonderful) To get back to the T3, each time I watch the DVD I learn something more about the keyboard but one of the questions I raised with a Dealer was whether I would be able to use, or convert, my vast collection of Technics sets to the Tyros 3. His reply was it isn't possible at the moment, but he thought some sort of conversion software was 'in the pipeline' - we shall see.

Meanwhile, John N please check your mail.

Hi Audrey , It goes without saying the Yammies are good boards .

If you enjoy your music hang on to the old faithfull Kn7000 until you are really sure you can make the change .


I wish you well on what ever you decide to do .

best regards ......giovanni

Does anybody have leadsheets of Soundtracks like Armageddon, The Island, Pirates of the Caribean, Lord of the Rings, or of music of Hans Zimmer?
