After many years to use a Roland, I went to replace it. The salesman said to me: "better yamaha, Roland have anything good now", and then, he showed the PSˇ3000 to me.
It seemed very attractive, many buttons, very good sounds. very good screen, although I didn't like the key feel. But when I gone to play styles, I experienced a special deception in three aspects (Perpahs I am old, or I am out of phase)
1. The styles were very simple. In my old roland, the style change throughout the measures (it last two, three, or even four measures), and that give much variety to the music: a lot more inspirating for me. In Yamaha, the style repeats itself throughout the measures.
2. In my old roland, the instruments sounding in styles were varied. That make the styles very different one from other, and very suggestive and inspirating too. In Yamaha, it seems that it is the same group of five or six instruments playing all the styles always.
3. In my old Roland, a minor chord made the style different; a seventh chord also. In yamaha, style is always similar in this respect.
Is all of this so? Is it normal to be disappointedd with Yamaha in these aspects? Must I to recycle myself, to update myself?
