Congratulations on the birth of your daughter Beakybird. And the journey begins.

Thank you to you all!

And of course I'm among all the members here
who will congratulate the proud father and his
family with the new born girl.
Yeah, the years go fast, and they grow up and
leave the house, but then we get the grand-
children.
Ahhh... life is good!

And so, would you Yam'ies out there please tell
me what OTS means. Is it "one touch screen"
or
"one touch setup", or am I totally out on the
"big fields" here?
Could be nice to know for a guy who not are too
familiar to Yamaha....

OTS=One Touch Setting.
On the PSR740, 2000, 9000 and 9000pro (and maybe some others I am not familiar with)each style gives you 4 buttons of voices recommended for that style. On the 9K and Pro, you can change the voices to your taste. On the 2000, no need to change them because there are 8 Registration buttons where you can store your favorites. And if those 12 aren't enough, the 2000 lets you store multiple banks of 8. Really a cool feature.

OTS is one touch setting. The PSR2000 has four buttons dedicated to style-appropriate voice changes. The preset styles have preset One Touch Settings for each style. With user styles, you can custom design each one touch setting and save that with the style. The CVP209 styles that I shared with the group all have one touch settings created by Yamaha for each specific style. Even though the PSR2000 has about 30 less voices than the CVP209, the CVP209 styles and OTSs seem to translate well onto the PSR2000. I think that if a style voice or OTS voice doesn't exist on the lower-level keyboard, it defaults to a similar voice.

So it's really fantastic to buy a new keyboard, and then all the sudden receive the freebie of 120 professional styles with custom OTSs. It would take a long time to create OTSs for 120 styles. It would probably be a group project that would never get done.
