I wonder if the S975 is available in the shops yet ?
I would like to see a video where all functions and applications are shown.
I also want to know all the differences between the S970 and the S975.
Is the S975 just a simple update or can it be called a real upgrade ?
Your feedback would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks, Babette

Hello
PSR S975 is available in Europe , I don't know about U.S.
I don't see any significant upgrade from PSR s970 to S975.
Maybe I miss something ?
Extra memory , live control registrations , halfbar Fill in , a few voices , a few styles .
As a result it's not easy to see differences in videos.
You can see specs and new functions here :

I would call it a S970 enhancement. About 100 more Voices, Mono Legato, save Arp parameters in registrations, more styles, and 50% more expansion memory, etc. This is just a teaser keyboard. If you own an S970 you will take a big loss on buying the S975 for just a few improvements. I recommend waiting for the next PSR (or whatever it will be called) upgrade after the S975 . I believe it will have even more enhancements / improvements.

So I post at the same time as Joe H and i totally agree with him.

Thank you ALL for your feedback.
Very much appreciated.
It looks like most S970 owners have no intention to upgrade.
Apparently most people prefer to wait for another 2 - 3 years.

It may be called something else but it will have all the features of the S975 plus more. It would be nice to see a PSR equivalent with no speakers with more Live Control knobs and faders. If that is what Yamaha is working on it won't be called a Genos I think... but a new model of PSR without speakers. Something in between the PSR S series and the Genos. It could have a new name/model as well. (not PSR Sxxx)

If only the next arranger could have a better keybed !

Why not a 61 keys Genos Lite ?

Genos Lite : To my mind Yamaha want to sell their Genos so they will propably maintain a big gap between Genos and future PSR (whatever they will name it).
