Anyone know when we can expect the Yamaha Tyros III will arrive the market.

no idea, I personally feel the T2 doesn't need a replacement for a couple of years. Perhaps we might get something like a Tyros 2 Pro in the interim with 88 keys and more voices/styles.

The Tyros3 will be a while yet...at least another year.

As far as a pro version? Not likely.

Not enough demand for anything with more than 61 keys.

Good point Ian. It's a shame really - the 9000 Pro was a great keyboard for it's time - shame the concept didn't see it through to the Tyros range. I for one would buy a top end Yamaha tomorrow if one were to be released with more keys. I just find that 61 keys can be a bit restrictive at times.

Amazing that Yamaha seem to think their workstations need to be in three different sizes, but arranger players only need one....

Mind you, if everybody didn't bitch about the weight of these things constantly, Yamaha might consider it! If Yamaha had made a 76 note T2, it might be my main keyboard, but I guess they don't really care about offering a choice.

Personally I think people should be screaming at Yamaha for a new OS update.

If KORG can turn around and develop an extremely significant update at this late stage in the Pa1X life (OS3), I’m sure Yamaha can do the same.

Regards.
James.

The next OS update will be Tyros 3 Yamaha releases a new product in each of its market segments every 2 or 3 years. And a lot of people thankfully upgrade to the newest model - even if the changes are often minor. Som recent history:

1995: PSR-7000
1997: PSR-8000
1999: PSR-9000
2002: Tyros
2005: Tyros 2

See the complete list here .

Kind regards,
Tommy

And I would like to add:

Korgs policy with OS updates throughout a products life cycle is much better for the customer but might not generate as much profit as Yamahas business model.

Kind regards,
Tommy

It seems that you have missed:

2000: PSR-9000 Pro

(just joking)

According to the time progression we can expect Tyros 3 at the end of the 2008. Hopefully it will have a USB 2.0

George
