That said, it has never bothered me, because usually the speakers soundlevel is higher, and if use earphones, I don't hear the 'clicks' either. Never asked other people in the house if it's annoying though... don't going to ask either ... they may start notice it..... 😁😁😁 _________________________ Cheers 🥂 GJ _______________________________________________ "Success is not counted by how high you have climbed but by how many you brought with you."

Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	Originally Posted By tony mads usa This is a situation where I think a video would have been better so one could see what buttons are being pressed and how... I don't think I've ever heard buttons on any KB sound like that ... Tony ALL buttons were used on genos ... recorded with my cell phone right on top.... any genos owners can do the same easily a video is not needed. I will say while you playing you do not hear any clicking at all. That said I like the bigger sturdier buttons on Geno.. Edited by Dnj (11/09/19 10:24 AM)

leeboy Senior Member Registered: 10/09/04 Posts: 2580 Loc: Ocala, FL USA	I was afraid of that....that is a problem I'm not sure I can live with...when playing at home fairly low volume and quiet passages...when pushing those switches...POW....you hear a damn loud click. Wander why they (Yamaha) do not see that as a problem?? Lee _________________________ Lee S.

rikkisbears Senior Member Registered: 12/22/02 Posts: 6020 Loc: NSW,Australia	Originally Posted By Uncle Dave The SX900 buttons are whisper quiet ... a feature I appreciate in a professional setting, especially while recording. Hi Dave, something that would never have occurred to me. I suppose if recording keyboard only, it would be directly from the lines out? but for voice if you’re playing and singing it needs to be quiet. I suppose other option would be to sing to a backing track. I don’t sing but that option sounds like it might take away some of the spontaneity? _________________________ best wishes Rikki 🧸 Korg PA5X 88 note SX900 Band in a Box 2022

Lee Again, something that wouldn’t have occurred to me. My keybed on the S950 used to annoy me, it was a bit clickety , clack. You have to play that softly that you’ think you’d hear the buttons click? _________________________ best wishes Rikki 🧸 Korg PA5X 88 note SX900 Band in a Box 2022

leeboy Senior Member Registered: 10/09/04 Posts: 2580 Loc: Ocala, FL USA	Maybe on Genos 2 they will change it...I hope so. It has been that way for a while...I'm thinking Tyros 3 or so??? Lee _________________________ Lee S.

Kabinopus Member Registered: 11/11/04 Posts: 708 Loc: Russia	Quiet rubber buttons on PSR-S950 were fine to me as long as they worked properly. After some time they tend to become less responsive and it becomes a problem. Not only me complained about it. "Clicky" buttons on PSR-3000 (some of them rubber, others plastic) are working fine till now.
