Why can't the T2 play native Wavs? It first converts them into 2 mono recordings at a little faster then real time. I once had to put 3 CD's on my beloved Tyros2. It took nearly 3 hours (even after the conversion from CD tracks to separate WAV's). I hope for a firmware upgrade to fix this. Related to this is the startup-sample-download thing. Why we have to wait minutes to get a few samples loaded in the memory. Can't think of any other troubles. _________________________ lacobo.com... lacobo's website!

Tony.....both my topics are only meant to generate discussion & possibly improvements, upgrades, and personal knowledge of the Tyros 2 for purchase opinions too......I bought mine site unseen with only some previous PSR ownership history thru the years & happy I did....it has its flaws for sure......you just have to sought out what YOU personally require to make music with the T2 & decide if its that's enough for you to be happy ...if not try another unit......The perfect KB may not or may never exist, but we can hope, buy, try, play, enjoy whatever is offered to us based on our needs, finances, & talent!!

I feel your pain my friend.......USB 2.0 & beyond is much needed......that's why I use a laptop on stage for all the techie stuff, files, Wav, Mp3, Smf, SFX, Txt, Avi, etc etc, ....its much more accessible & navigatble for live play.

Composer Ryan Junior Member Registered: 05/28/06 Posts: 29	The price! lol I don't have one, but I've been impressed with the reviews and the audio demos and images I've seen of it. Just look at the screen on it! drool But I can never replace my PSR740. Quote: I hate..... Sharp corners Different mode switch LIVE play navagation MFD navigation: needs to include trasnspose & registration access No XLR Mic input Little pictures under keys Plastic buttons/knobs No control sliders Sharp corners? lol This keyboard sounds a little dangerous...maybe you should put tennis balls on the sharp corners. Hey, it could add some "style" to your keyboard.
