Wouldnt it be a nice surprise if Yamaha slips in the "New" S900 replacement!!.....if they follow suit the release of their NEW Mid level Arranger which would incorporate many of the Tyros 3 features I'm sure.

Won't be long.....anyone going to Winter Namm have an eye open for this ok?

Be very interesting for sure. Yamaha slipped in the S550 to replace the S500.., and did it quietly too.

Ohhhhh man..., the current S900 would look amazing in black! I think Yamaha did a great job on the cosmetic design of the new S series. Even the PSR-3000 was a leap in cosmetic appeal compared to previous models. Very sleek and well laid out.

No replacement for upper end arrangers from Yamaha at this NAMM show. Only replacements for lower level arrangers will be shown.

Yamaha won't release any major keyboards at Summer NAMM. They will release a keyboard when it's ready, NAMM of not, like they did the Tyros 3.

Winter NAMM brought the YPG635 and E413 LOL oh and the Motif XS......

If Ketron has a booth in the same place as last year (drum section) not many people will get to see them! They need to get back to the keyboard area!
