I may not not need a Tyros2 but I may want it anyway. I think that I have gotten to a point where I could make use of Tyros' capability to layer more than 2 voices on right-hand side.

I also like the fact that the pads can be toggled on/off independently.

But if the length of travel of each piano-key has not been shortened and tightened up a bit, I probably would stick with what I now have.

I too bought a T2 to replace my PSR3000..I immediately missed the compact size of the 3000, I prefered the screen on the 3000, the T2 screen I found very sluggish and would fly past a page I wanted in an effert to get to a particular page on the fly, I hated the rickety ratchet sysyem on the T2's screen and worried that over a period of time it would fail...so I kept my PSR3000 and still enjoy performing on it...sold the T2 at a loss but feel I did the right thing...the massive difference in cost between the T2 and the PSR3000 compared to the fairly small audible perception from my audience made it a rash and costly decision to purchase the T2....If Yamaha built a compact instrument along the lines of the 3000 with the sound of the T2, it would be a winner.

Sorry, Mr. Ed....I think Fran must be ignoring the requests.

A fine player like he is shouldn't have any trouble putting up a demo of his G-1000.

I was just anxious to hear another nice tune.

SA tones..who needs them...I'll keep my oldie but goody..until one of you guys show me better!!!

Well Fran if that is really you playing a G1000 the sounds certainly sound far better than I remember the G1000 doing (it even sounds better than the G70 IMO). If you can play like that live why on earth do you need to use midi files and MP3's?
Also on the MP3's properties why does it say genre blues and Made with Sonic Foundry Acid 3? Are we actually hearing a G1000 live with no fancy editing, or has reverb effects etc been used from Acid 3... Please explain what the download actually is.
Sorry for editing but I forgot to mention that Sound Forge also comes with Acid 3 and I think the new Acid 4.

Well Fran,

First of all...is this you playing?

If it isn't, I am very disappointed you couldn't/wouldn't share your skills with us.

If not,was there a reason you chose not to...I figured a player with your skills would have presented a very nice demo.

If it is you, it is a very nice performance.

The strings and brass are very good and pretty close to the 3k and T1, but they are far behind the Tyros2.

The solo wind instruments are nice as well, and again pretty close to T1 and 3k, but still are a long way from the T2.

The biggest difference is there is no legato phrasing and "real" instruments do not re-attack on every note.

The T2 will do legato on the winds and strings.

It is the only thing about it, I really miss.

As far as I can tell, it is a demo CD from Germany that I had sent Fran.

Still sounds great though.

Hi Fran.
I agree with Ian, I would love to hear something played live by you or anyone else (no SMF or multitrack) on the G1000.
I still own a G1000 but have to say the T2 is miles ahead of the G1000 IMO. The G1000 is still a great instrument for gigging with but it certainly shows it's age now.


The Acid Pro was the recording software, and Yes it is as Eric says..

Come to my shows and I will handle a request from you guys..

Hi Fran,

I just went to your website and watched the video of your band.

Great show.

Eric
