Well looks like I'm going to be adding an XF and keep the s910. Kronos won't be out to June, July my dealer tells me. Karma is coming out in April for the XF and the Sonar upgrade from 8.5 to 1X it is suppose to be easier, we will see about that but it will be only $99 to upgrade) I will also check out some more software programs and sounds, looks like another year of schooling for me but that seems to be what everyone’s using...
Thanks again for the tips and when it comes time to upgrade the 910 maybe the t4 will take a price cut or their will be the 920

Whoops... Looks like I have T4 coming my way... My dealer told me the Motif XF was on back order and I asked about the T4 and he had a used one he made me a deal on. Guy only had it about 3 weeks and upgraded t a Clavinova... So by the end of this week or beginning of next, I'll be finding out just how good the T4 is...

Thanks for the help!

Great news!

Now the LOOOOOOOOOOOONG wait for the UPS man/woman.

Congratulations and best of luck.

It's funny, I was thinking of upgrading my Motif XS to the XF to get more voices and the Flash Ram, and then the Kronos was announced; The odd keyboard out for me is the Roland Fantom G6; I just don't use it anymore.

Anyone want to buy an Roland Fantom G6 in pristine condition?

Thanks for taking the time...


Shell out ONLY what YOU are comfortable with.

I own the XF and I use to have the S910 along side it Midi'd together... great combination!!!

Playing in arranger mode on the S910 using sounds from the XF. It worked perfectly!

good luck with it!

How did you deal with the XF playing the style sounds? Especially the Mega-voice stuff? Did you have to re-map the style?
