Anybody? I had a t1. Psr s900 is all i can afford. I loved t1. The screen quality and key feel is not a problem for me. I wont miss upper3 either. Its the lack of the live drum kits that worries me. Are the s900 multipads powered by mega voice as on t2?

I would say about the same as the T-1.

Even though the T-1 did not have the FSX k-b , you will find that the S900 key-bed is not as good as the T-1.

Rubber buttons and poor control surfaces too.

Sound is Great ! Maybe better than the T-1 .

The S900 does have some of the T-2`s SA voices.

Good luck !

You can tweak and tune the entire keyboard globally using the mixing console's EQs, which really make a big difference in the overall sound. Additionally, you can tune the drums on any style and save that information into a registration, or save it as a custom (third-party) style file. Those drums can be as hot as you want, or as subtle, depending upon the song and the venue's demands.

Good Luck,

Gary
