I'm considering buying a used Yamaha Psr S750,

I would likes the thoughts of forum members on this arranger.

I need to move on from my beloved G70.


Thanks

Frank

Hello

Just to comment, that the PSR S 750 is not the current model, the new is PSR S770 and it has major improvements.... or consider also the PSR S970, that is more like it.
Go a listen to one life....I know that there are lots of demos on line, but, nothing beats to hear it life.
Just my 2 cents.

Manuel

Thanks Manual, yes I have heard the Psr s770 on Youtube demo, magnificent. I dont intend to invest heavy in another arranger, my budget will not allow. I'm hoping to look at the 750 today, according to the musicshop I deal with a lot, it is in new condition. The price is good I think, €600 or $700 approx I am mainly looking for new styles and a smaller and lighter alternative to the G70. Most of my work today is on my midi accordion with a BK7 Module.

I had the S750 for a short while. It's a very good keyboard for the money IMHO.

Best to try it out first.

Dnj. You can add Rubber Button to the poor key feel.

Go for it. It is an excellent keyboard I have been performing and recording with it for 4 or 5 years. Almost all songs on my YouTube channel were recorded using the 750.

You will step back when it comes to keyfeel in my opinion the G70's keybed is still one of the bests around.

You will loose on build quallity the G70 is build all over like a truck but also weights like a truck

You will loose the vocal processing

As an arranger the G70 is probably more advanced then the 750 with all the little options to tweak your styles.. also you have 3right, 2 left and a base sound, where 750 only has 2 right and one left.


-----------------


You will get multi pads, the latest sound quallity (tough the Roland might even have more on board sample ROM, its almost 300MB), onboard speakers, and yamaha styles (which imho sound better out of the box then the Roland styles, that allways require some tweaking on the G70)... i dont know if the S750 has the possibilitie to load new samples, if so, that would be a difference, allways been the weak point of the Roland G70... no sample expansions.


In the end, i really dont know if its an upgrade goign from a G70- to a PSR S770... there still is a lot to be loved about the G70, i am teaching my youngster nefews play the keys on a G70, and it still feels alive and high quallity...
