... I doubt Yamaha will release another SX successor IMO. Genos V2 or something else maybe. Usually Yamaha will release a flagship then the PSR version to follow, also trickle to the Clavinova CVP.
Correct. They have to release a Genos successor *before* releasing a proper PSRsx900 successor (although they *have* released half step updates. EG the PSR2000 and PSR2100 were virtually the same board but the 2100 had an improved piano and nylon guitar. Likewise, the PSRs970 and s975 were identical except the s975 had 4 sample packs pre-loaded, and 256mb more free sample space, and the new half bar fill. Other than the 4 preinstalled packs (which were available separately except 2 oriental mix kits, but now are available anyway) the patches were identical.
Meaning they *could* release an sx905 with the same sound banks, but maybe more memory, that sort of thing.
But as the PA5x has just been released, it will take Korg a while to trickle down to the PA1100 (I wonder what they'll call the intermediate model? the PA750? they've already used the name PA800), meaning at least a couple of years before Korg has a new PSRsx level board (It was 3 years between the PA4x (May 2015) and the PA1000 (April 2018)). Meaning Yamaha doesn't even need to do the half-step upgrade til 2024? 2025?
We'll most likely see the Genos 2 by then. After that the sx910/710 (or sx925, whatever they end up calling it). It was exactly 2 years after the Genos that the sx900 series launched.
