A few comments. Yes the SX900 is impressive. However I prefer the aesthetic look of the PSR-S975's menus, chassis and overall look. The "lack" of touchscreen in actual use is of no consequence because the S975's screen navigation is excellent and very easy, and most importantly much more pleasing to look at. As to sounds, the SX900 has more sounds and more registrations, but actually I prefer many of the similar or same sound patches on the S975, which to my ears sound more subtle and tasteful. SX900 sounds are often over-bright and tinny. Both keyboards are excellent, but a used PSR-S975 will now be excellent value and in almost all practical ways just as good as the more expensive SX900.
I've owned Yamaha keyboards for 30 years. I tried both keyboards and I wouldn't exchange the PSR S975 for the PSR SX900. I'll wait for the SX900 update and it will have to improve a lot.
The speakers on the S975 is better than SX900 IMO, the low freq is better and the high is more soft to my ears. My school has both keyboards, so I can compare them directly.
Are both the keyboards eq’d the same way? I’d expect the SX900 to sound a little better but the difference is almost stark in the video, which doesn’t seem to be the general consensus. Thanks for taking the time.
I just bought it in October and I thought that the SX900 would be a little better but in my opinion that is not the case. No effort was put in the voices and styles.
More sound according to how we choose expansion packs by selecting with help of yep software.. sx 900 have 1gb expansion space and s 975 760mb so sx 900 can have more sounds. Voices
I think he may have a couple of small settings different between the two keyboards. When one dives deep into the menues of the SX900 it is impressive how much the sound can be changed.
@@roggyo In this video I am thinking he didn't have the settings like for like between the two. Some of the S975 sounds seemed different and in a way a little better. But he had something turned on with the sx900 that added a type of compressed chorus to everything.
Hi Can I do a real time key change using the transpose feature while a midi file is playing. At the moment all mine does, is to transpose the onscreen score down one for every one increase in the transpose. No change in the pitch of the music playing, however.
The piano sounds are very similar on the S950 compared to the sx900 that I have replaced it with. I would say half the sounds are of comparable quality. A used s 950 is a bargain keyboard.
Is this better the KORG PA1000? I've seen some demo videos and it appears to be a very versatile keyboard, with realistic sounds, modern rhythms and editing possibilities. The Gorg seems to me to have a more compressed sound unlike the Yamaha which is a bit unbalanced. How about. Should I buy one, which one do you suggest to me? Thank you
@@evanroberts4666 no, but yamaha has to improve their keyboards a lot, the problem is that they always have the same rhythms and the occasional new sound that's all, in my opinion it's not worth upgrading until yamaha doesn't change all its rhythms and sounds and make them new
They are very different products compared to MODX and Montage. SX series is an arranger keyboard so it has backing styles and understand chords and matched with intros and endings etc. MODX and Montage do not do that. The keys on the SX900 feel much nicer then MODX but not as good as Montage. The SX900 is not the same level in terms of sound selection to MODX or Montage. They have more sounds and much more focused on sound capabilities, quality and control. SX900 can not do what they do with sound and especially with the effects processing and super knob controller etc. MODX/ Montage is designed for studio and live work where SX is designed for the home keyboard player - although its sound quality is superb and can be used live as well as many do. Hope that helps a little.
@@achamilton Thank you so much for this. It sure helps a ton. Looks like I’lm going to eliminate SX900 and MODX. Could you answer one more question? Is one of the NORD keyboards a good alternative to Montage? I don’t do production. I just want it for good sounds. Great pianos and organs. Also love good synth sounds and the ability to somewhat (beginner level) tweak the sound). I was looking at Nord Electro 6 for pianos and organs and Nord Stage 3 for more capabilities. Piano 5 is nice too, but it’s missing the organs. Should I go with Nord or Montage?
Surely the better definition of sx900 could be for higher quality of its embodied monitors. The difference clearly is more evident in the organ voices. Why isn't an example of full organ?
Hi Justin here in France we have a curfew from 6 PM to 6 AM so practically we stay at home for 12 hours a day... interesting videos such as this one help biding the time. The PSR SX900 sure looks like a very fine instrument! Are you going to do a review of the new DGX670? There seems to exist the same quantum leap between the DGX660 and the DGX670 as between the PSR S975 and the PAR SX900. The DGX670 looks like the perfect home instrument for the whole family. When the lockdown and the pandemic are over, we’ll organise a huge party over the Channel 😎🌈
The advantages of the PSR-975 with its large number of small buttons are obvious to visually impaired and blind people. How can they use the beautiful touch screen with big pictures? And there are enough such people. No thought was given to their convenience.
Yamaha took forever to catch up to Krog. All the new features in the 900 have been in PA 600 an up since 5 years ago. I do love the sounds on the 900 though. I ordered one.
Such a dumbs. U don't know the power of the sx900. I had used the s975 in stage and sx900 in stage. The sx900 punchy styles and performance in sx900 is the best I've ever seen. But in s975 the styles are like somthing hitting the shit.

your compare is not correct! i am an audio studio engineer, so its easy to hear that you set up higher level of bass to sx900 than to s p975, so the sound lf sxp900 is more voluminous, you should not think that your watchers are stupid!!
Voices quality if we mix it very well in any model it will come good it's depending on how you mix the Voices with effects psr sx 900 having 3 layers so one more we can add in 975 only 2 that's better other all things is with tuch screen we can use easily.. but using with user banks and user created styles it will come same quality according to user's experience and quality that's all..
Hi Kelvin, There are lots of new styles but this video was just concentrating on comparing with the previous model, maybe we'll do another just with all the new styles on

Correct. S 975 sounds neutral, fuller and balances. SX 900 sounds tiny and high end forwarded as well. S 975 remains winner for mixing.
Tnx alot It was useful...it helps to decide the better one...I can't wait to perform in SX900
I've owned Yamaha keyboards for 30 years. I tried both keyboards and I wouldn't exchange the PSR S975 for the PSR SX900. I'll wait for the SX900 update and it will have to improve a lot.
Hey so is the sound whole lot different mate ?
Yamaha sx900 is fantastic keyboard in the present keyboard market. They now compete with Korg pa 1000 with voice and style patterns.
The SX900 has the hottest sounds
Great video, grabbed my attention from the start !
Old is Gold🎹❤
7:39 what is the tone name in sx 900?
SX900 sounds like remastered to high quality audio.
The speakers on the S975 is better than SX900 IMO, the low freq is better and the high is more soft to my ears. My school has both keyboards, so I can compare them directly.
How about if they use the same speaker ? Does it sound different ?
The sx900 seems to sound better in a way. i belive the tone generator.
All voices sounds brighter?
Are both the keyboards eq’d the same way? I’d expect the SX900 to sound a little better but the difference is almost stark in the video, which doesn’t seem to be the general consensus. Thanks for taking the time.

@@amitandutube Not better. Most of the voices and styles of the S975 are superior.

Thanks to your video, Great! Very informative and details.
Outstanding review,,,thank you , from across the pond,,,,will be buying a 900
Generally we only ship to the EU, great choice though
@@achamilton could I purchase the organ sounds I play in 2 churches for masses
One of the reasons I wanted to buy from you
could you do a demo of the 900 organ sounds,,,,B3 etc
Hello . Is there a difference in the quality of the keyboard mechanism , or the same in terms of tactility? Thanks
The PSR-SX900 has a much, much better keyboard type. The S975 has the same keyboard type as the SX600.
I want to buy one of them This is why I'm watching this video I am still searching
I actually like more sounds on the older 975 than the sx900
so true. More realistic than the newer one
More sound according to how we choose expansion packs by selecting with help of yep software.. sx 900 have 1gb expansion space and s 975 760mb so sx 900 can have more sounds. Voices
You must be kidding! I have old PSR and new PSR SX900 and new has incomparable better sound and everything else than the old one.

What are people listening to? The sound quality of the SX900 is leaps and bounds better.
My worry about the touch screen of this kind of model of piano is this" what if the touch screen Freeze's up"
You can still use the button controls.
The piano sounds are very similar on the S950 compared to the sx900 that I have replaced it with. I would say half the sounds are of comparable quality. A used s 950 is a bargain keyboard.
on the playlist, can we create a list of styles set with our favorite voice or it's only for song list only?
This is a real comparison indeed.

Korg pa1000 is very good..🔥
Love the favourite idea, but can you save multiple sounds/songs etc in each category, i.e. if I had say 6 waltzes can I save them as a group, thanks.
I don't know why I sold my yamaha psr 970 thinking that yamaha would release a more advanced model and I was wrong. I regret selling it.

Sx900 has better sounds than psr s975 i love it
Did you use the sam voices on both keyboard?
Can i buy sx900 in this mid 2022?????or a successor coming soon???
Surely the better definition of sx900 could be for higher quality of its embodied monitors.
