So far it's very nice. Very very similair to the S900.

The biggest difference I can see would be the screen, the extra voices, mp3 playback, and styles.

I like it allot, I forgot how light this thing is, I can literally hold it with 1 hand, ( i am strong) a great keyboard if you dont want weight. I still hate the keys. But I can get used to it.

Ok update, the are some styles from the T3, but I noticed there are not nearly as much as the T3, the T3 has about 450 styles we are talking about half, I keep looking for more pages since I'm used to the Audya and T3 amount of styles

Everything else is the S900

Personally, I think the S910 is what the S900 should have been all along.

Definitely a nice jump up for PSR-3000/S700 owners; not so much for S900 users.

My sample account S900 goes back to Yamaha when the S910 arrives sometime next month, so I'll be looking forward to trying it out.
It has two of my favorite organ sounds from the Tyros3; SA Rock Rotary and SA Jazz Rotary...both are excellent B-3 sims.

The S910 will be only 400 lbs lighter than my old B-3.

From what I've seen so far I'm not sold on the S910 that would make me upgrade from my S900 "Cha Ching" machine at this time..............not enough change YET but hoping down the road things will get much better feature & navigation wise on the Yamaha arranger TOTL/MOTL units. Everything else out there that I've tried so far doesn't fit MY needs. I've become very patient

As Diki said on another thread...

"Depends on whether it loads T3 styles with less problems than the S900 has... That and the compatibility with the new guitar style format might future proof you for quite a while.

And, let's face it, as inexpensive as these things are (compared to, let's say, a Wersi ), you shouldn't be losing THAT much if you trade around carefully. If you have had your S900 a couple of years, the loss shouldn't amount to more than it costing you 50¢ a day. I don't know about you, but I can afford that."


So Donny...you're the guy saying that "it's only money"....sure wouldn't cost much for you to upgrade to a new "Cha Ching" machine that will have the latest upgrades to the style engine...it would pay for itself in no time with the amount of gigs you do.

Even your Cha Cha will sound better...more like "one, two, Cha Cha Ching"

Frank stated that most of the buyers who ordered the first shipment are Synthzoners. So, if you are one of the first S910 owners, please give us some review as soon as you laid your hands on it, specially concerning soundwise and styles comparing to the Tyros 3 and the Psr-S900 with the newest Psr-S910.
