Top me it sounds like it's playing over the exact same rythm, that it's 'only' the lead vices to compare? I think it's about personal taste, and in my ears Korg was warmer and softer than Yamaha. Yamaha has a crisper and clearer sound, more CD'is or effects at it. But at the end, SX took the lead in my ears this time. 😎

I heard 3 distinct rhythms, all very similar, but slight instrument changes.
I think you're right Dave. Listened again 2nd and 3rd time with earphones. It's also visible that the rhythm runs at all 3 kboards.

I agree..
But this demo would never make me run out any buy any of them
BTW: the Yamahas played the same drums. Korg was different.

The SX seemed to out shine the other 2 with the 970 a close second. The different lead sounds did make it a little confusing. The Yamaha ensemble sounds were definitely better than Korg. JMHO JM

True Dave...may have been an ensemble balance issue. It seems to me that Yamaha takes more care in making their ensemble voices more believable. The Tyros 5 had that great ensemble feature that kept the horn sections smaller...making a more believable sound. I wonder if the Genos has that same feature? Mitch

Definitely convinced me that the SX900 has improved quite a bit over the S970. Nice comparison - Korg sounds good too. I'd rate them SX900, Korg PA1000, and S970.....

Tend to agree with Fran. Not overly impressed with the demo.
