And now perhaps you see the good of having a display that would show you what the chords and countdown an Intro or Ending have...

That is, if you actually play on them..!

Feel like a change one night? Feel like taking an untested (fully) arranger out on a gig? Feel like using a style you only half remember? Want to not look like that guy with his hands in his lap...?

C'mon, it's not a BAD idea...

does the PSR S910 have any new Synth sounds and pads?? or is it still the same as the PSR 3000 and S900 in that sound palette?

The S910 has dozens of new synth sounds. It's voice palette is similar to the Tyros 2. The S910 has about 250 more voices than the S900. A little over 30 are special voices (the ones that have ! in them). The rest are additional voices in all categories. There are some great voices among them, many of the synth sounds are featured in the styles, and many of the other voices are layered in the OTSs of certain styles.

One of the reason I like Roland arrangers is their ability to guess midi file chords, I mean from any midi file. Does the new S910 can guess chords now on any midi files?
Thanks

Jim,

Yamaha's operating system is such that you can press the Score button and look at the complete arrangement for any midi file. However, if the midi file was created on the S910 itself, then the keyboard will automatically select the style file and display the chords of the midi file on the main screen.

Last night after my gig i started to dig in a bit and take a closer look at the S910. I love the 1Mb increased storage over the S900 which lets me put more "onboard" user Styles & Reg info.Although you can put endless info on a USB thumb drive also externally. I use a Right angle USB drive so it doesn't stick out the back. Sonically I can hear the improvements as I went through the sound pallets, Organs, Accordions, Saxes & Guitars,Strings and yes the Drums really sound fantastic! If I'm not mistaken there are also a few NEW Multipads too. And that Display SCREEN is pure heaven to see on stage or at home. Little by little I'm making the S910 My Own, I'm very happy with what Yamaha has done to this point. With just a few user changes to the MFD in future S-series models to include Transpose, would certainly be another plus for MY Needs.
