Truth is, in my mind I've made the switch to my PA 4X. I still have my Yammie S970 which I'm guessing won't see action until perhaps our Christmas show and then I'm not sure.

I don't have to sell my S970 but it would sure take a bit of dusting off to start using it again.

Thoughts?

By the way.

Went to help out the person who bought my Tyros 4. Perhaps my imagination but I didn't think my former Tyros Keybed had the solidity and feel of my PA 4X.

Bachus ... that is very true, but if you are going to have a back up, shouldn't it be the same as your primary board? ... or at least the same brand?

guitpic ... Perhaps you should try to sell the S970 and get a used Pa900 ... at least the OS would be very similar and you might be able to load some of your Pa4X stuff right into the pa900 ...

I need a back up board like I need a hole in the head. I have Pa3x and 4x, but I'm with Tony better to keep the same brand.


P.S. Tony great to have met up with you for lunch! That's a plus for living in a small state none of your friends in state are more than a 40 minute drive away. smile

Always fun getting together with other musicians-
Did you jam also afterwards?

Hi ,
If you have absolutely no use for it, possibly the sooner you sell it the better.

Coming from someone whose still got their last 2 Korgs. Haha

Pa800 probably not worth much anymore. Just never quite got round to it.
Pa3x I'm still fiddling round with.
