#72867 - 12/12/02 04:37 PM PSR1000 vs PSR2000
rattley Member Registered: 11/14/99 Posts: 838 Loc: Punta Gorda Florida USA	Hey hey.............I was going to buy a PSR550 until I heard and played with a PSR1000. I like 4 style variations, the extra intros and endings too. So I'm saving some more cash to buy one........Then someone says "For a few bucks more ($200) you can get the 2000" Is the PSR2000 worth the extra bucks? Are those organ drawbars worth the extra money? All comments welcome. Thanks -- CHARLEY

This will permit you to store more than twice the amount of user files, thereby providing you with greater flexibility and ease of access. After trying both, the 2000 got the nod from me and lots of other professional entertainers. _________________________ PSR-S950, TC Helicon Harmony-M, Digitech VR, Samson Q7, Sennheiser E855, Custom Console, and lots of other silly stuff!

It is a much better board. I would have bought one, but my funds would only allow me to get the 550...

George Kaye Senior Member Registered: 11/24/99 Posts: 3305 Loc: Reseda, California USA	Another major reason for the 2000 over the 1000 is twice the polyphony. The 2000 has 64 voice polyphony and the 1000 has 32 voice polyphony. The PSR2000 has a digital EQ and the 1000 does not. The 2000 has the vocal harmonizer and the notation disply and the 1000 has no vocal harmonizer, no mic input and no notation display. 2000 has a modulation wheel and the 1000 does not.
