Wow, I'm totally amazed by the sheer number of (962 as of this morning) Tyros 4 demo videos now up on YouTube. This is the first time I've ever seen so many videos being posted on a daily basis, of 'one specific' arranger keyboard model, of which includes live recordings by amateurs and pros alike.
Here are just the latest posted in just the last 24 hours alone. If these and the hundreds of YouTube videos already posted don't convince you that Tyros 4's a fantastic sounding keyboard well worth purchasing, I doubt (short of playing one yourself) anything else will:

Scott ... thnx for the links, but I have a question ... admittedly, not being in the market for a new KB, I have not paid much attention to all the T4 demos, but have there been many - any??? - that show the kb in a gigging situation? ... Of the videos you posted here, I can see only one - the Hora - being of any possible use - and limited at that - on a gig ...
BTW ... the young man playing the Hora has a good technique ... another question - the increase in tempo was seamless ... how is that done on the T4? thnx

Tony, I would assume being his fingers arent hitting the tempo button, or that he has tempo increase assigned to a foot pedal pedal......or he has a few registrations setup with different tempos of the same exact style via pedal also..?

Donny .. thnx ... I was thinking along the lines of a foot pedal as well ... not so much the registrations because the changes are rapid, but gradual ... neat idea, but not one I have use for ...

Re: Demo Hora T4 Video #2
Actually, there was no footpedal involved in triggering the tempo increase.
At 1:01, though the player's left hand's mostly obscured, you can catch his left hand index finger quickly reaching to hit the tempo+ button (located directly above the lowest most KB octave). If you watch closely again, you can catch his left hand reach up again to activate the tempo + button at 1:10.

Tony, not sure what you're looking for, but here's a spontaneous gigging situation (albeit very amateurishly shot + poorly recorded audio) 14:49 min. video simply documenting a guy playing Tyros 4 for a party gig:
