Hi, I read a question someone asking if it is good to buy a Tyros 1. I bought the Tyros 1 shortly after it came out (which I still have but now want to replace with the new Genos). I have been happy with my old Tyros but want to pose a friendly warning, some of the switches in my Tyros went dumb and dead. I had five switches replaced by bigger internal switch components that solved the problem, but now switches that I haven't replaced are also going dumb. It is quite frustrating because if you want to change say a sound whilst playing, initially you have to press the button hard to do the change, but as the problem gets worse, pressing the button does nothing.
So I would say, if you consider buying an old Tyros, check the buttons. I am hoping that Yamaha made some changes by using more reliable switches in the later models. I am actually very concerned if I might have the same experience if I buy the the new Genos. If anybody knows more on this topic, could you please publish something.
