Good job I love it.

[@flossyflue4305]

Thank you!

[@delysmurphy8103]

Thank you .

[@tomintoledo372]

I really enjoyed your Demo, It was slow and easy, so many Demos are to fast, this was great. I've been watching your videos since Tyros Tipsters, I have a Tyros 5 76 key, want a Genos but the wife says NO. Thank you

[@paulcook468]

Thank you for your comments Tom. Flowers, chocolate and fizzy wine might help!! 👍🏼

[@michaelbanks5102]

Easy to solve - Exchange the Tyros for Genos and follow the same route and exchange the wife!!😉😉

[@LeighWilbraham]

Nice shed 🙂Hope you're well Paul, long time no speak

[@richardrobbins1422]

thx!!!!!!

[@danield.kidane4811]

Thank you so much for your great presentation, sir. I have one question, In PSR SX900, do you think is possible to use a touch screen external monitor and operate the keyboard from that monitor? I have seen people were able to do it with the Montage and MODX. Thank you.

[@kurauonemutimwii2193]

Thank you. How about recording a multi track midi file saving and playing it back later. I seem not to find what l recorded

[@krishnansubramaniam1255]

Thanks for the Share ! Quick question - can a pair of speakers be plugged in directly to the line outs of the SX-900 ? Or do they need to go thru an amplifier ?

[@guidodeciccio3853]

Hi Paul what is best way to set up left hand chord comp so you get the best reaction to the chords in songs ::: i note sometimes if there are 3 chords in a 4/4 bar the sx900 does not pick it up nicely

[@keithmuller223]

Very nice, Paul ... OTS is so ignored and a great function .. especially the muted voices hidden in a single button..many forget this and just think the next button is a 'clash' so ignore , OTS... Great intro to touch screen ... better than PSR/tyros ... although I would like to see position in folders highlighted when you exit back a step ... Thanks for a great demo . Keith

[@paulcook468]

Thanks Keith. The touch screen for me is a major step forward....easy, quick and precise.

[@keithmuller223]

Yes it's a big improvement Just posted your link on PSR forum ... there's s guy on there in need of your vids .... Nice to see some playing rather than button pushing ...I'm an old Hammond man ... so, well done... thanks

[@zionbeats6527]

Sir how to set button light blink ?

[@raymondwelcome7164]

Hello Paul. I want to use the auto accompaniment features because I’m a non-musician and I want to use the easy play today song books and play the shortcut chords. How do I get the cords displayed on my touchscreen? And the fingering for the easy chords? I just picked up the Yamaha PSRSX 900

[@antonscherrer5670]

I bought a second hand Tyros 5 a few years ago, some of the instruments (esp. strings) are now not as loud as they used to be, therefore I think of buying a PSX900. I have all registrations on an USB stick. Can I use them on a new PSX 900 without problems or do I have to register and arrange all my songs again?

[@johnmoxon6037]

Paul, what other songs fit with that particular style- fantastic playing by the way,

[@paulcook468]

Hi John. The good old swing rhythm....any big band number like ' night and day' ...' I got you under my skin' ....the world is your oyster with a 4/4 ....Any song with a 4/4 timing signature will fit in here.....get creative and see what happens.....

[@ThamilNesan]

I don't mind for touch Pad but most musicians preferred fiscally touching keys for music to enjoy the music atmosphere I believe Yamaha will have to add both and on Genos they killed the uplifting screen options which is ridiculous Yamaha has to bring back for Genos model and Up lifting Screen on PSR SX 900 too.l

[@amusic9825]

8:30 those lights are running like crazy. How do you did that?

[@paulcook468]

It's actually something that occurs when videoing...I can assure you the lights on the keyboard are clear, bright and static. It just shows them pulsing on playback....hop that helps ,👍🏼

[@iangrant9197]

Bog rot👍

[@dddddddd9870]

Did you noticed that it have ugly noisy keyboard, very bad quality? Very much worse than old cheapest keyboards (DGX-230 for example). And also bad touchscreen quality, bad response, graphic stutters? Last few years every cheapest smartphone have touchscreen better than this! Shame on Yamaha! And also very bad quality of main encoder (value selector in the right of touchscreen), with non- touch-responsable positions

[@dddddddd9870]

Also this useless graphic "animations" take time when need change settings faster. ...For example Korg PA700 don't have no one of this troubles higher. I more like some Yamaha's sounds but look into much more user-friedly Korg because of all this reasons
