So sound wise, I don't see where there is any difference from the Pa2x; ON PAPER.

Same Sound engine, same RX Experience = Same Sound.


Not much difference on paper, Al, and, I'm still inclined to say, there is not much difference sound wise.

If I play a Tyros3 and Tyros4 side by side, I can hear a difference, not just in individual sounds and styles, but overall as well. Having played both instruments for quite some time, the difference is more than subtle in my opinion.

Going by the on-line demos for the PA2X and PA3X, I can't hear much difference at all, and, unfortunately, that's the only way most people have to compare the two, as very few places are stocking and showing the latter.

Have you played a PA3X, Al? Do you know someone who has, and whose judgement would be unbiased and reliable?

So far, I have experienced neither one, but hopefully, this will soon be ameliorated.
