Does SX920 have as many S. Art2 voices as Tyros5?

Hello friends :)
Am I right, does the SX920 now have S. Art2 voices? If that is the case, I am considering it. I like that it has the scat doo-be-doo-voices too! My Genos is only used at home, so I take my S975 or my Tyros5 on gigs. The Tyros has said voices, but it is a little bulky and heavy. Our store has not got the 920 yet, but have the 720. I tried it, and was surprised by the updates of styles and sounds.
My "problem" now is: Should I stick to the Tyros for gigs, or get an SX920?
I use external speakers on gigs anyway, so that doesn't matter.
I never got around to selling the Tyros, because I like it so much! Even now, when I have had the Genos for many years, it gives a special feeling to fire up the lovely silver Tyros, with the wonderful look. I am a nerd, I know, I know :)

It has about as many S.Art 2 voices as Tyros 3, (12 vs 11); and it's missing the Irish Pipe .

It's missing 63 S.Art2 voices compared to Genos. T5 has 55 S.Art2, Genos has 75.
sx920 is basically a baby Genos 1, missing 84% of S.Art2 voices and again uses live drum versions of the Revo drums, but otherwise it's all there. Excellent little keyboard!

Hi Toril

Nope you are not a nerd you are a Tyros owner and the reason they are hard to still find is nobody wants to sell theirs.  I sold my SX900 pretty darn quick after the keys started rattling and bought a used Tyros 4 (couldn't find a 5sadly) They are so many reasons to stick with your Tyros 5 .. a really superb key bed and apart from the Motif range the only range with after touch. I still think they sound awesome and have so many features that even the new models don't have. If you sell it you will be sorry!!

Hi Toril

If you did I for one would be disappointed too!! There must be something really special because very few Tyros owners are willing to part with their keyboards!

The SX920 vs. Tyros 5 voices - the SX920 outshines in these aspects: The SX920 has 15 S.A.+ voices not on T5 or even in Genos2, more S.A. voices and more MegaVoices. But the T5 has more S.A.2 voices - and aftertouch.

What is the difference between the SA+ voices and SA2?

The SX920 new Guitar voices for using in the OTS are like WOW!

There are so many nice ones to pick from for country music.
