Re: Things Fusion does better than the ES
One of the earlier replys mentioned the Yamaha EX5 as ahead of the pack with on board sound synthesis types. That is correct, but the limitations of such advanced software and programming is why we have plug-in boards today.

Re: Things Fusion does better than the ES
Plugging in a new expansion synthesizer board is so much better than what the EX5/7 had ... amazing features to be offered, but painful reality as to what could be accomplished ... We don’t need another EX5/7 mess as a workstation

Re: Things Fusion does better than the ES
That’s a good point about having everything in one package, but if you were Mr. Yamaha would you really want that or would you want the consumer to buy more accesories/options/expansion boards? The consumers may want it all in one but I think (maybe except for the current Oasys line) that the manufacturers can benefit from additions.

Re: VGA interface
Those are great shots. Thanks for including them. No doubt the future is continued progression towards synergy of hardware and software. Roland is definitely on the right track with these products, and Yamaha looks to be as well with Studio Manager, et al.

Re: VGA interface
Okay - I am officially drooling at this point. Vote: Yes for VGA board technology! I can’t wait for NAMM either. I would figure that there has got to be a big announcement from one of the big three. (Yamaha, Roland or Korg.) Let’s hope it is Yamaha with a Motif ES Studio kind of thing with either a redesigned user interface with a larger LCD or VGA output - not to mention direct transfer for audio to your computer. That seems like the logical progression at this point. I would have one right now if the UI did not take a college course to master. (Much of that has to do with the not so generous LCD.) I have a grasp of the user interface but its nowhere as near user friendly as say a Roland Fantom X. I would gladly pay more for a “super” Motif that has it all. (As mentioned earlier, - I am selfish and want AW 1600 features thrown in as well - CD drive - bring it on!)

Re: VGA interface
Here’s how it looks in Yamaha’s own product, PM1D/PM5D series of digital mixers.
