Don't forget that there will be new preset voices, also. The new ROM is twice
as large. There is a second piano (I think the one from the newer S series
boards), and several voices from the Tyros line. I heard the Tyros trumpet (the
one that shakes), and it sounds really good (and has a few extra expression
features that aren't on the Tyros). I also know that additional megavoice
guitars are included.
Motifator already has several demos up, but they don't show off many of the new
sounds. They sound like XS demos, mostly. In fact, I think that the people that
made the XS demos had more skill. Funkalicious, in particular, could sell the
XS to a lot of people, and was programmed extremely well. The new ones just
don't sound very imaginative. Well, most demos don't. Yamaha usually does
pretty well compared to others in terms of demos, though, so that is why I
suppose that I expect more. Undoubtedly they'll put out others, though. The XF
has only been announced for a week or so.
Of course, nothing beats playing it yourself.

Yeah. I want to try it out first. I think $3079 for a 76 key keyboard is
ridiculous, and if it is just adding flash rom, which I would like and some
more samples, is it worth selling what I have to get only an incremental
update, which will just cost me more money in the end? I'm a little annoyed
about this, honestly, but I'll try it out in the store first.

Hello,
Just curious: has there been any talk at all of a new motif being
released next year? I figured it's been about 4 years since the xs, so maybe
yamaha is planning something?
