I got all the info, pricing, and have placed my order. I will be getting the first ones that land in the country.
Yamaha did make us sign an NDA and was told we were not allowed to say anything, but I'm sure there are people that won't listen.
What I can tell you is I was greatly impressed, and I feel we have a new king of arrangers.

Would you say it’s better than the new Ketron sd9

Glad to hear you were impressed! Can't wait to demo one live and in person. Will you always have a demo in the shop?

At this point, the gag order put on the dealers by Yamaha is a bit ridiculous.
So is this an international security issue or what?
🤔

I agree about the gag order, since no one else is following it.
Yes, I like it more than the SD9, they did some really cool things, I’m writing a review of the day, once I can release it I will, I don’t want to be sued by a giant like Yamaha

Chas: Thanks for putting it in perspective for me. I guess I got caught up in the moment, not taking into account the age depreciation factor!

Frank, when do you think you'll have a demo unit in your store?
And thanks for your tantalizing comments about the Genos. It's encouraging news!

I didn't realize they would sell so fast, thank you, everyone.
Looks like Yamaha is shooting for a November ship time, but it's hard to tell. Supposedly they underestimated the initial orders in Europe. Which since it is a much bigger market than the US, will mean less coming to the US for the first few shipments
I also have just received all the official specs, just waiting for Oct 2 to release them.

Just hope they are not the same as the leaked specs...
