I like the rubber buttons too, Donny...nice and grippy.

The Tyros3 may have something similar.

Seems to me that all some users are asking for is an option for a 76 note version, not to replace the very successful 61 note version. As Yamaha already carry a 76 keybed in their ranges, probably wouldn't cost that much to make a new top section to replace the, say, Motif layout, with a Tyros layout. As we know all the keyboards split in half..
Just a thought.

Come on now, miden.... Don't incur the 'Wrath of Ian'

Haven't you learned ANYTHING yet...? YOUR needs mean nothing to Yamaha (or Ian).

Bow down to the Church of the Blessed PSR, and tremble at their mighty wrath (and market share)!

Zeig Heil... (oops! Wrong cult!)

A tilt display would also be a simple improvement too besides rubber buttons.

Careful, Donny. 'Improvement' implies criticism. Mind you, that ought to help with those Franki Valli vocals ;D

Yep...good suggestion.

Strange, isn't it, that Roland and Korg BOTH have WS and arranger divisions, but neither consider that a 76 arranger scavenges sales from THEIR WS division...

Makes you think, doesn't it (or at least, SOME of us!)?

Aaaaahhh! NOW we are getting closer to the truth, aren't we, Ian?

Improvements that YOU agree with SHOULD be implemented, and those you DON'T should be ignored. How unselfish of you! Thank you for correcting our blunders..

Of course, expect to have ALL your suggestions ignored by the 'market leader'. 'Home' arranger players don't need easy visibility of the screen any more than they need enough keys to play piano on, or a decent harmonizer.

Different strokes for different folks...

Roland and Korg are probably rejoicing that Yamaha is not making a 76 note Tyros3...just think of the devastation that would cause.

Best to leave the giant sleeping...
