Yamaha S90 - a dream come true!

[littledog]

I just auditioned the S90, and it's now my favorite keyboard ever!

I already own a Yamaha EX5, and Kurzweil PC2X, both of which I often use with a Roland XV-3080 module. But I must say, that the pianistic touch and response plus the fabulous collection of sounds forced me to spend a couple of hours in the store annoying everyone by playing non-stop.

It wasn't in my budget, but I guess I have to have one!

yeah, I played the S90, and thought

it was a nice keyboard. I didn't have much time to play the different patches but I had heard of the triple strike piano sample,and wanted to check it out and compare it to my s80 piano. I was playing in a noisy room so I probably missed most of the nuances of that patch, but it's a nice sample for sure.

I would be curious to know what improvements the S90 has over the S80. If it's another set of patches, then I can pass. I also noticed that the S90 did not have most if not all of the knobs the s80 has for real time tweaking. How is that dealt with?
