Hmmm, we had speculated that they just didn't allocate sufficiently for the North American region. It sounds like they just didn't set up sufficient world-wide output! I suppose they'll ramp up production or something (unless the whole business has to do with some shortage of specialized internal parts). Yes, it's difficult to sell a synth when you have none to sell

Hi Bob,

The same situation has occured in the UK, in fact some retailers are getting a bit bitchy about it, some claiming that the KN 7000 is outselling the Tyros 20 to 1 due to the non availability.

I`ll try that site,

Best Wishes,

Brian

Dear Brian,

Swell! I say that because I'm listening to http://www.live365.com/stations/291071 ? If you haven't tried this you may like it! It's oldies music that I can play while I'm doing other stuff on the net....

Interesting, here in the US Tyros is "sold out" for a few months!!!!

Cheers,

Bob

Maybe there is something to the TT rumor. People are not buying the old warmed over technology any more. Especially when they loped out the vocal cords. Soundless wonder. Could be TT (Tyros Two) is being revved up on the production schedule to quell rigor mortis setting in. Roland takes one step forward and two back. Can’t do that for too long before people notice the thing is in reverse. Maybe somebody at Yamaha realizes saddling up the name and riding on that will soon be seen for what is, name without substance. Technology is moving fast today. Wars are being won in weeks, not months or years. The people who don’t keep up fall back. So Bob, is this a world wide Tyros shortage or a mid production adjustment to catch up to the times? What do ya think? Outsold twenty to one? Not good.
