Yamaha PSR S900 Review

by ANDY THOMSON
(ESSEX ENGLAND)

I BOUGHT THE YAMAHA S900 FOR ONE REASON... THOSE SUPER S.A.
VOICES WHICH MADE T2 THE BEST PERFORMANCE KEYBOARD..
S900 HAS 23 S.A. VOICES THE SAXES ARE THE BEST AND IT IS SO EASY TO CONTROL THE VOICE.
S900 HAS ABOUT 300 STYLES WHICH JUST BLOW YOU AWAY...
WHEN YOU PLAY STAR WARS OR THE MAG 7 IT IS JUST INCREDABLE...I HAVE ADD THE REST OF THE MISSING T2 STYLES TO THE S900 ASWELL..... THE USB CONNECTION MAKES
ADD FILES OR SONGS SO EASY PLUS YOU CAN RECORD STRAIGHT
ONTO THE USB STICK THEN BURN OFF YOUR OWN C.D.'S WHICH
IS GREAT...THREE WORDS FOR THE S900. FUN FUN FUN....

the S900 is all about SA voices, if it didn't have them, it wouldn't be worth the price.

The sounds couldn't sound more realistic and the styles sound great.

The only thing i don't like are the rubber buttons, Yamaha made a step backwards with it.
I hope they last enough years O.o!

S900 is deffinetly a nice improvement of the 3000 (not considering the buttons) Some buttons are back such as "voice effect buttons"

On the other hand, the quality of the keys has improved a lot compared to those found in the 3000. The USB recorder is another great improvement and now recording voice or an external instument, is possible and the S900 will save it as .WAV file.

I don't regret having changed my old 3000 for the new S900, i bet you won't either.

starstarstarstarstar 		comparing PSR9000 and PSRS 900
by: Anjalika Silva

I was a 9000 owner and loved the machine but it was too heavy to move about so I got rid of it and bought the PSRS 900. I don't know if my instrument is a lemon but the sound is awful. The maximum volume is nowhere neare the PSR 9000. I adjusted balances and nothing works. When I play the base sounds shudder. Need to hear from someone who bought a PSRS900 whether they experienced the same.

I want to call the store and exchange but will have to pay a restocking fee although with my experience playing for many years, there is something wrong with this machine. My $200 YPT400 sound better than the $1600 machine.

Please share your experience.

Thank you.

Hello, I bought this machine a couple of years ago, and I'm very pleased to have it.

The voices are really real, the guitar voice is just like a normal guitar, caused by the amazing effects throughout the whole time you play the guitar.

Although, the sound from the boxes is on full power not that great, sometimes it has some difficulties with it, but i connect them to a pair of boxes, 2 by 1 meter ;D Then it sounds really really great.

The voices, styles and the rest is really great. I thought the rubber buttons gave some trouble, but after 2 years they're all very clean, and still working. It's much 'chique' when you have those soft buttons.

Conclusion: Great machine, great sound, great everything. Only the sound sometimes whobbles, but that's easy to fix for another 500 euro's or so. If you play just on the normal sound, then there is no trouble.

I hope I informed you enough to make your choise.
