To address Scott's point about bringing a controller in lieu of the Tyros having 76 keys:

1. After having spent $3000.00 for a keyboard, why should we have to bring more equipment to backfill for a key missing feature! I want to go to a gig with ONE keyboard and ONE sound system.

2. I already bring another keyboard to play along with the Tyros which has a different sound engine to complement the Tyros sounds. I would now have to bring 3 keyboards, or midi-up my second keyboard to the Tyros. It's a lot of fiddling with buttons to bounce back and forth between a keyboards internal sounds and using it as an external controller.

3. Most new high end professional arranger boards have 76 keys in this price range. Why can't Yamaha get this point?

C'mon Yamaha, give me my 76 keys!!!!
