Michel Voncken and his Trusty PSR-S970

Over 1 hour and 37 minutes long - - - in very good audio quality! Enjoy!

From 1:13:09, he demoes the Tyros 5.....as a bonus!

He lives a dangerous life... saying in the beginning it took him 2 hours to drive from the Netherlands to Erfurt...

German does come in handy! Thanks!

Nice find the S970 sounds amazing what else do you need except a tilt screen?

Talent!

I am watching the whole video... Its fun if you understand German...

I also saw Jürgen Saretorius, the german Korg demonstartor, so there might also be a Korg demo comming up from the same veransteltung(thats German)

But Voncken is allways fun to watch...

Cat can sure play!

Touch screen, great vocal harmonizer, more programmable controls, built-in power supply, XLR inputs, phantom power, ability to accept multi-switch foot controller, after-touch, better drums, better OS. . . I could go on.
Don't get me wrong the S970 is a fabulous arranger, and I'd still have it if it had more of the real-time features I need. And better drums.

I agree Don at almost twice the price it should have all those things you mentioned and more,..that said sound wise they are very close and in no way does it hinder my needs,...but at this time I'm comfy now with the S970 the way I have it setup,....and my little 10" Lenovo S10 notebook offers great visibility vs the S970 flat glaring non tilt screen,...I'll wait for the next Yamaha models whenever that is to consider a change if at all we'll see..........
enjoy what your playing for now.

I'll keep my eyes open for Jurgen's video if it will be available, and I'll post it.

Musiker Lanze (who organized the meeting and posted the video, BTW also a member of German Musikerboard) already answered that he is currently preparing the Jürgen Sattorius video.

Great! Looking forward to it. I'm familiar with Musiker Lanze. I'm sure he'll do a good job. Thanks for the info.

I was just answering your question! Enjoy the 970!

Excellent demo. His version of "Sultans of Swing" would convince me to buy the keyboard even if I knew nothing about keyboards. "Apache" was also really well done.

Don Mason's assessment is right on especially considering the vocal harmony. I would have traded my S750 for an S970 if they had scrapped VH2 and put in a quality harmonizer. Michael did not attempt to demonstrate the vocal harmony on the 970 which tells the tale on that toy they call VH2.

God Bless,
Don

Donny, have you figured out how to make you laptop read your 970 screen? Or do you mean you use it for lyrics?

God Bless,
Don

Ditto.

What a great rendition.

Anybody know what style? Voice?

Here it is ...

Maybe this video deserves its own thread?

It probably does...

I think its the best pa4x demo i have heared so far..
( maybe because i also understand german)


Here is another one from the same veranstaltung..





Enjoy the sd7 in comparrison to psr970 t5 and pa4x
