But you can't argue with their midi integration. Every parameter. Pretty sweet.
Some of the PS series had sequencers which, you're right, were initially unpredictable. But they weren't flexible, either, so once you figured it out (ahem... RTFM) it was no biggie.
But that's how Yamaha kinda was. They did what they did and everyone else just kinda had to make way for them.
