Got my psr9000 - 12/07/02 12:53 PM

Okay gang. Picked up the 9000 today. Thanks for the advice, tips and encouragement for my decision process. A very good condition unit, all works great, threw in 32 simms, hard copy manual unused, power cord...all for $1300. Now I have to get busy.
Regards,
Zuki

Thanks.
Question already....the seller erased the music library and had no factory disk. Do you think if I download the current os, it'll put in the library also or must I seek out a factory disk?
Thanks,
Zuki

Zuki,
if you download the OS you should get also the music finder database and all the OTS settings.

You can get the "deciphered" version from Yahoo PSR style group. It has the correct name of the songs.

Thanks all. I was up till 3 am with the board. Thanks to Simon's friend, I had a whole pile of styles to go through. Not having a zip or other storage devices yet, I did the floppy from cd thing, listening to every single one. My family thinks I'm nuts and can't understand how I could enjoy something so 'tedious'. Oh the joy of being different...
Yang..I think there is one on ebay currently from a pawn shop.
Dreamer and Don..thanks for the tips. Hope to get that done today.
Scotty...I'll be thinking of you on Monday!
I LOVE THIS BOARD. The keyfeel is soooo much better than the 2000. The acoustic/grand piano is the same, but I can live with it for mix use. It's better when I use -1 octave and use the middle keys. The buttons to me are much better positioned than the 2000. I like the direct disk function. Iove not hunching over to see the screen. The video out was impressive to the family (of all things!) In time, I know I'll love the extras. The internal sytles I'm very used to, the other styles (g1000/em1000) really blow my mind. A couple of Wersi are cool. A few Solton are ok too. Next come the Technics, VA, 209, X1, on and on...if I could get my hands on pa80 sytles..

HI ZUKI,
I have the 9000 too. I will be happy to try to help you with questions, problems, needs, etc., as others on this forum have done for me. I have had it for only a few months so I am still learning but willing to share.
I would suggest Vince Cochrane for the hard drive. I am super pleased with the unit I got from him, ready to drop in, formated and loaded with songs and styles. He is in UK. His service was second to none. I am pleased and will deal with him again I am sure.
Much happiness with your new board

Hello BEBOP,
Small world, but Simon's friend I eluded too earlier in the post is Vince! I'm going to drop him a note tonight. Appreciate your services if needed and now I'll see if I'm doing the updates correctly.
Thanks again,
Zuki
