Yamaha Tyros 4 vs Tyros 5 

It’s an audio style

Yes. You got it.

Personally I would go for the PSR-SX700 or SC900 as the SX600 doesn't have the 5 pin midi connectors.

Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White

agree

Very agree!!!!!Tyros5 is a child comparing with Tyros4....only the sound of t4 could satisfy me!

Last summer I was very tempted to buy a black Tyros 4. I sort of wish I had bought it. I very nearly bought a Tyros 5 before I resigned but maybe I might reconsider buying a Tyros 4. I have heard quite a few people say the Tyros 4 is better than Tyros 5. It partly depends on how much I would be willing to spend, even if I owned a Tyros 1 or Tyros 2 I would have no intention of ever upgrading and those are still fairly decent keyboards.

I agree. As an owner of the Tyros 4 I like the new sounds of the Tyros 5 but I don't think it's worth spending that much money (again) to change. If you are a performing artist ( I'm not!) I guess you have to keep up with the newest features but there are so many things that Yamaha did not incorporate in this new version. There could have been a touch screen or at least memory that can hold ALL of the premium voices/styles which it can NOT at this moment. It is more of the same. More and improved voices/styles but no real changes. Yamaha should listen to its users. There are lots of ideas in the forums........

Toril Susegg 😂😂😂😂😂

Olá amigo Tyros 4 tem coisa que o Tyros 5 e o genos top de linha não tem que é vc fazer sample nele mesmo

@@jessingamer yes - tyros 4 has soul and spirit - live, clear beautiful. I have tyros 2 (still love it as certain sounds are unique). Tyros 4 has voice creator which Yamaha removed and gone to YEM expansion....

Tyros is Korg Sound... You have no idea what you're talking about Sir.

daniel scott-lewis Some also think sounds better to T4, as well as styles Bluegrass better at T4

Last summer I was very tempted to buy a black Tyros 4 when one was listed on EBay ( maybe I should have bought the black Tyros 4 as I would have had nothing to regret ). But Last October before my birthday I had finally decided on a Tyros 5 but partly because I resigned I had decided I was not going to get an arranger keyboard plus also I needed a new computer so I couldn't do both although I'm reconsidering buying either a flagship Yamaha arranger or a Yamaha PSR-SX700 maybe in 2025, 2026 or 2027. Or maybe if another black Tyros 4 is listed I might buy it but a silver Tyros 4 is not completely out of the question. But there is no deneying the Genos is definately better than any Tyros. The Tyros 5 is still a fantastic keyboard despite the fact I was very upset because I thought I had got my hopes up for nothing but if I still want a Tyros 5 badly in 2025 then I will get one as I would have been very thrilled with a Tyros 5 had it not been for my unfortunate resignation I would be the proud owner of a Tyrls 5 right now and would probably never want to stop playing it! But at least I have more time to decide weather or not to buy an arranger keyboard.

this silly machine can bring you 1000 euro in 2 weeks. If you know what to do with it

+Cristi Cristian WoW!!! HoT damn!!! I just might get to know this silly machine!! Lol.... Things we don't understand seem silly at first, but I'm sure its more to it than what I see..... :-) #motif xf8 #cp5 Yamaha respect

Where’s your s.

I personally have Halion 6 and it has those same saxophone sounds that were introduced in Tyros 2 so many of those sounds made it into later Motif models yet many of the SA2 sounds like the Tyros 3's clarinet are exclusive to Tyros. You can now get a used Tyros 3 or Tyros 4 for a reasonable price. The only reason I'm thinking of getting a Tyros 3 or 4 is because my computer is starting to play up and if I ever had to reinstall Windows I might not be able to get Halion 6 working again but even Tyros 2 sounds better than Halion 6 because sounds that originated on hardware are difficult to pull off in software and the Super Articulation is good technology because it automatically switches playing styles based on how your playing the keyboard and with VST instruments it can be very time consuming using the traditional key switching as well as having to assign several different channels of articulation for just one instrument when Tyros does it automatically. If you particularly like the sound of Tyros instruments then buying a Tyros is a good investment even if your not going to use the auto accompaniments.

I was very nearly suckered into buying a Tyros 5 last October. The only reason I didn't was because I resigned and I have been unemployed ever since. But in all honesty comparing all these sound examples with Halion I prefer the sounds in Halion as Halion is a workstation. Arranger keyboards are specifically designed for one man band situations they are not designed for studio productions and I agree if auto accompaniments is not your thing and midi sequencing is your thing then you should buy either a workstation like Montage or just stick with VST instruments. Halion is also much cheaper than an arranger or a workstation which cost thousands. The only good thing about Tyros 5 being overpriced is so that I mugs like me don't buy them for all the wrong reasons. It's very misleading of Yamaha to call Tyros and Genos "Digital workstations" as they are clearly arrangers.

Its the reverb, its set higher on sounds on the Tyros 4 then the 5, You can turn down the reverb on the voices on the 4 and they will have that dryer but more realistic sound like the 5. But honestly I am like you, I prefer reverb, but some people do not.
