Being more of a Korg man myself as you all know I did however add the PSR750 to my PA800.
With hindsight and a bit more cash I suppose I should have gone for the PSR950 listening to this fellow countryman of mine.
(incidentally after some introductory small talk the true demos start at approx. 2.30 )
Thought might be of interest to some of you here.

Although well done, & good quality video, Sorry I just can't get past the SAME OLD Yamaha "compressed tambourine downbeat driven drums" that hasn't changed in years. I hope the T5 breaks the home organ/keyboard sounding mold with a "NEW Live Sound"

I think it's time ...

Thats a lot of KB for very little money Donny, 50% the cost of the Pa3x.

Yes Tony and sounds 50% less LIVE also..

Outstanding! Donny, did you actually listen to the entire demo, or did you base your opinions on the first few minutes. When he played Black Velvet those drums rocked, and I'm listening to them with a laptop. Additionally, not only is he a great player, he really knows how to get everything you can get from the keyboard and then some.

When he played Bluesy Night those guitar sounds were far better than any keyboard I've ever heard in two decades, including Korg, Roland, and all Yamaha predecessors. And, this comes from a guy that used to make a few dollars playing guitars and singing in honky-tonk bars.

The accordion and Leslie sounds were incredible, to say the least. He really knows his way around the keyboard, and this after owning it for just one day.

Bottom line: Those sounds are very, very live, not at all compressed. The drums are hot, the individual voices are the best of the best, and in the hands of an accomplished player, this clearly demonstrated the incredible capabilities of the keyboard itself.

Just my half-pence worth,

Gary

When the arrangers drums get up to this standard then you can say they sound great, until then I am afraid they will always be below par.

Bill

Bill, those drums sound great, but keep in mind that is a stand-alone system - not an arranger keyboard. We're comparing arranger keyboard, onboard drum sounds, and those that were just demoed were great. Additionally, I'm confident that the recording device used to record that drum system was far more studio oriented than a person using something to record his or her keyboard in their living-room or home-office studio. So, lets compare apples to apples - arranger to arranger.

Cheers,

Gary

Gary, first comment, the Leslie is not realistic...I attached a video..in the last minute it shows the new Roland RD64 organ patches with Leslie..Listen to the vamping of the High and low rotors...The Yamaha effect using the mod wheel in the demo..is instant on and reminds me of the old days of using modulation as a substitute..

Second comment, you need to get out and listen to live drummer..

Here is a video of the Roland VR 09, a 12 pound, battery power stAge piano/organ/synth...with a street price of $999...

Roland is definitely on the right track and addressing so many of today's NEEDS for different keyboard players...NICE !
