It sounds good. Drums are better than in previous PSRs. Joy stick is a big improvement. The few programmable buttons are a big improvement. The things Yamaha does well are all there, fills, endings, multipads, sounds. There is a lot of value for the dollar. But, Vocal Harmonizer is still terrible. No aftertouch. Many icons on the screen are very small for my big fingers. Operating system still archaic. Still no XLR input, no phantom power, still uses wall wart power supply.
If there were no other options, it would be wonderful. The Genos gets closer, but is still just another Yamaha. You love it or not. And the Genos is too expensive for a lot of people, even though in the big picture, it's worth the money if you do love it. DNJ, are you trying to convince yourself to give it another try? You already know ALL the pluses and minuses. Don I have been going back and forth with buying another Yamaha unit It would be my 3rd SX of both but you just confirmed my thoughts on why I got rid of them all or go the synth workstation route Fantom which after watching so many demos my head is still spinning , Montage, Modx, etc, and get creative again, but at what cost and tedius work to get there?... maybe a SD40 & a controller too.. ? You always make sense Don I just remembered the horrible playlist feature also on SX.. I am in a search mode at the moment. We'll see or wait.

Hi Donny, not instead of the sx, but certainly wouldn’t rule out a new model Korg pa ? in addition to the sx.
I’ve always had a psr,( even if not the latest model) in addition to a Korg.
I sold th Korg pa3x and Pa4x, but I held onto the ec5 pedal ( which I’ve had for about 30 years, it went with my Korg i2, ) plus I held onto my Paas speaker system , just in case. Haha.
Had been considering a new Clavinova , but, think I came to my senses, starting completely over and learning solo piano again, ( instead of keyboards) maybe too hard, not that many years left , haha, Whereas keyboard in conjunction with my p121, that is achievable.
