Donny, you have an S950, right? If so, how does the sound quality compare to the S970? Do you find the S-970 sounds better? Except for the larger display they are almost identical for the most part,..S970 audio styles sound a bit more refined then previous on the S950. A few mega gutars are more active within some styles.... But aside from that not a big difference at all. Hoping to see what becomes available from Yamaha next release with TYROS 6 (?) or S series units in the future. Like I said at this point sound isn't an issue anymore IMO they all for the most part sound really good it's all about the navigational features, and design, weight, keybed, tilt display/size, inputs/outputs positioning, knobs & sliders, VH,.

You're absolutely right. I mean, if a keyboard already sounds good and realistic, like the S950, how much more can they improve it? The improvements will have to do more with the other things, like features, etc. Regarding the keybed of the S970, I read on some forums that it's better than the S950. Can you confirm this?

I never touched a S970...but I dont think the keybed was changed? ..... but I could be wrong.

I had the S950, own the S970... Biggest differences, and they are significant to me: Larger screen Active control knobs...use them all the time Bigger on board memory Audio styles...sound excellent live VCM...love this feature..a person can really shape voices with it Speaking of voices, it does have human voices...sounds pretty good Multipads...I like the way the multipads are organized...makes using them quicker and easier. When I had the S950, I used it for backup and took the Tyros to gigs....10 - 14 a month. Now the S970 is my main board and the Tyros stays home most of the time.
