Hi, I have the Tyros 5 (76) now about 2 weeks. As I didn't keyboarding the last 7/8 years and didn't had before a Yamaha, there was a great gap getting to know the Tyros (5). But for me it is a part of the joy. For a great part this forum (and much appreciate their helpful members!!) is a great 'wiki'. There is also a huge amount of knowledge and instructive (video's) in the cloud as the Yamaha's are popular keyboards. That is sure a benefit for newbies like me.
I'm very satisfied that I bought this keyboard. Personally I love the sound and quality of the (preset) styles and voices. For my ears I eq-ed the output a little to get a better balance and bite in the drums for a personal taste. This is an example of the flexibility of the T5. I have invested reasonable time in learning all about the keyboard. Momentarily I focus on functions like: the freeze-function concerning the Registration (which is a complex item to get between the ears!, but very important), the ensemble-function and the file-organisation. I didn't payed attention (yet!) to the style-creator-function. The OTS and Musicfinder function, mmm.... sometimes handy but mostly not 'fitting' (for me). The next 'step' will be to connect the T5 to my Daw etc. etc. I'm not in a hurry, so once ...
So, thanks for reading. I go on with tweaking and twirling on my machine and hopefully there is some time rest for playing (
).
Do you still remember what were the most difficult items to master (or still are?) your (new) keyboard?
