Let's take a look at the new Yamaha Tyros2 61-key workstation.

The price alone should be an indicator of what you're getting. The retail price for this keyboard is $4,095.00, although you can buy it online for about 3500 bucks. This professional portable Yamaha keyboard comes with 1,312 great sounds from MegaVoice technology, a large VGA screen, 400 styles, a high-quality keyboard, and optional hard disk recording.

Only when you seriously want to invest in your music do you need a keyboard like the Yamaha Tyros2. Otherwise get a cheaper keyboard.

Whether on stage, at home, or in the studio, you won't find another keyboard like the Yamaha Tyros2. It's in a class by itself.

The new Yamaha Tyros2 comes with more pro features. It has 42 sounds from Yamaha MotifES, a bigger screen, new styles, new sounds, a music rest, and aux in and return. The keyboard accepts Yamaha, .wav, and .aiff samples.

One feature that I really like is the optional hard disk recording function. You can add a hard disk to the Yamaha Tyros2 and achieve CD quality recording results. And with as many as 1,312 sounds from MegaVoice Technology, you will find all the sounds you want. You can use reverbs, choruses, and other DSP effects to make the various voices sound even more professional.
