Claudiu, perhaps you should use the Search function (at the top of the page) and go back and read some of the previous posts. I you search for "Tyros Motif", you should find numerous posts on the subject. The Motif is a true Synth, and has no Arranger Functions. They are two different animals. DonM
lol @ comparing the Tyros 2 to a Gem Genesys above. I was one of the first people in the UK to have a Genesys for 8 months, before part exchanging it for a Ketron SD1. Genesys does have some good styles and some amazing sounds, it's easy to use/edit, great MP3 playback if you use it and the keyboard is spot on, but they Tyros 2 is in a different league, shame it's not 76 note though (I'm ready for an ear bashing now from all Genesys owners haha)

Hi Craig, This is not an “ear bashing” as I believe different keyboards are made for different people.
The Tyros 2 may be better for some persons while the pa1x may be for others, or the G-70 and SD1 may be for others and the Genesys would be for others.
The fact is only certain keyboards can be used productively buy certain people. Variety. That is what makes the keyboard world an interesting place.
BTW There is a new Genesys called the Genesys S. If you were one of the first persons that owned a Genesys in the UK, the Genesys S is probably much different from when you had the first Genesys. So I guess Tyros 2 is a good response to it.

Isn't it GREAT to have so many wonderful choices. I could be perfectly happy with any of them. I could make a living with Casio WK3700 if I had to! DonM
Bomba 6, Stephen and Songman55: thanks! I am really glad that so many Forum members are enjoying the demo's; now that the working week is over I hope to record a few more demo's with more styles and sounds. I am still trying to learn the best technique to play the SA Tenor Sax pretending that I am a real sax player. The possibility is there, because Yamaha did a great programming job and now it's up to us players to take advantage of it, without screwing up everything and sounding cheesy...
