Excellent synth... I think it can outperform not just newer yamaha synths, but some rolands (jv80, jv90, jv1080) and korgs too (x3, x5d)... If it were 64-voice polyphonic...!!!! If you expand the sample memory and start to getting 2 mb multisamples into it you will know the value of this keyboard.

I've got to laugh at myself....I've had my '85 for years.......and I still cannae use it right.I've got a million Q's if anyone's got the patients.For ex....How do you change from one drum kit to another when recording patterns? Any help on best sequencer to get would also be met with tears of joy and laughter 'cos maybe there is still a chance for me yet......... Cheerz.

THE SY HAS SERVED US WELL.ONCE YOU GET INTO MASHING THE FACTORY PRESETS YOU CAN CREATE SOME AWESOMELY DARK SOUNDS. WE'RE INTO DARK JUNGLE AND HARD HOUSE AND THIS IS DEFINITELY A DANCE KEYBOARD. SO MANY UK UNDERGROUND ARTISTS USE THE SY SOUNDS IT SEEMS THAT ALL YOU NEED IS AN SY,S3000 AND A NORDLEAD TO ROLL

I bought the SY85 in Holland a couple of years ago for about �650 to use as background for my guitar-based recordings. This thing sounds great.... big reverb etc....I could only compare it to other synths in the shop but it was way ahead of those 3 times the price. I don't have enough time to use it regularly and the manuals are just "OK", so I'm not getting the best out of it...is there an SY85 chat page/club or whatever out there ?? Let me know......
