The only regret is the fact that there are no physical drawbars in the 88-key model :| :| :|

What I see is all fantastic, and they've addressed some long-standing criticism:

- the stage finally gets drawbars! I vowed years ago that this would make me immediately buy a new one, and I'm already re-figuring my budget
- seamless transitions between programs
- more piano memory
- more flexible split - the cross fade should be great for combining piano models across the keyboard, for example.
- they've moved the "transpose" button to the top - no more accidentally hitting that during a solo.

but I'm missing the following:
- Where are the status LED rings on the morphable pots? These are essential for seeing what's going on.
- no new layered sample format. No mention of this.
- still only fixed split points, and only three regions.
