Yamaha Tyros 3

Arranger, Tyros 2 successor. See Yamaha web site for more information!

UTILIZATION

Easier configuration than on the Tyros 2 because the layout is better thought-out and the sliders add some advantages. But I miss a Roland or Korg-like touch screen.

Very easy FX editing but poor sound editing. Style editing requires a computer (a CD-ROM is provided).

The user's manual is quite good but I haven't read much of it because I just got the Tyros 3 today!

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using it for one hour!

Pros:
- Sound articulation details (articulation 2 allows you to create nuances, especially for solo instruments)
- Piano, saxophone, guitar and Celtic instruments' sound quality
- Accompaniments quality. A real delight, I had never heard such quality (the U2-like 80's accompaniment is amazing, as if U2 were actually playing with me). It's very inspiring for my own compositions. I love it...
- Quality of percussions and rhythm parts

Cons:
- Keyboard quality. I wish it were a half-weighted keyboard (M-Audio has a good one)
- The sliders look very cheap.

The value for money is quite good. Compared to the Tyros 2, this new version brings few but important enhancements. People playing in a top 40 band won't notice big differences between T2 and T3. On the other hand, solo entertainers will notice that nuances and quality have been greatly enhanced. It's stunning! As if you played the instruments for real.

There's a lot of talk about the Audya, which will have a live rhythm section, but I think its solo instruments won't reach the Tyros 3 quality. Will the Audya have such a broad accompaniment palette to choose from as the Tyros 3 ?

To wrap it up: you get more styles, better sound quality, enhanced expression and a more ergonomic instrument, making it more enjoyable.

It's been a while since the last time a synth surprised me (Korg M1). It sounds so good, with such detail that it brings my creativity and my songs further.

If I could I would buy two... but I would have to be rich!!!

Good Evening,

I play the piano and keyboard buttons and I like to know if it is good for the elders of meals (over 60 years) for the following styles of music:

Waltz, Tango, Paso Doble, Marche, Samba, Bolero, etc ...?

Is there the Trumpet sounds, Accordion, Saxo etc ... of fun too?
it is as good as the Ketron SD5 and SD8?
Thank you in advance for your reply

Musically,

Miss, Mr.Plusieurs people do not like the case of Tyros3!, Yet the majority of keyboards are well built, do you think that with a metal case? Weight would be much pesant.Moi I had many keyboard from 10/10duE86, E70, PSR2000, PSRS910, TYROS3, these keyboards have been around, and move once or twice a week, and nothing is coming, even in the evenings, it is often happened as dancers came to ask me such a melody, putting their elbows on the keyboard, which was only a support X, and was also supporting a sound module, the MS-40, with a medium fit and a side of this medium supported on the end of clavier.Déménager by many who came to help us unload all of the family, and put them back after some musician soirée.Si log on notes rather than playing normalement.J 'am Tyros3 for 4 years or so, and nothing at all is to get to the box, only a few keys on the letters on the top, one can effacer.C is certain that if you do it on purpose, you will break, but if play like musicians who love to play and love their instruments, no problem! ... Hi, and end to fear, saying that yamaha and other manufactures their evil claviers.Salut.HENDIDI
