Should we delete the external Link to the Yamaha website?

I'm wondering if we should remove the link to the Yamaha Tenori-on site - since linking to it contravenes the external links advice concerning sites which "primarily exist to sell products or services". (External links). What does everyone think? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! Rich Lem 09:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I replied on Talk:Toshio Iwai. The link is relevant to that page, I think, but, even if it is removed from there, it should definitely be kept here. Cormaggio ^@ 11:14, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I also replied over on Talk:Toshio Iwai. Thanks for the advice - let's keep the link! Best regards, Rich Lem 21:30, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Link to Source for version 2.0 firmware

The link "Source for version 2.0 of the Tenori-On firmware" seems to point to a binary download, not source. I don't believe that source code has been released - it's not that sort of product. I think that link should be deleted.

What does it do?

2011-09-16 2355 - RD - All that I can see on the first couple of pages on Google talks about the white and orange versions, and who uses it. I'd never heard of it until today, and I can't find any reference which tells me what it does. The fact that it has a given number of LEDs and that you hold it in your hands and you can copy a block from one place to another doesn't in any way address this basic question. A paragraph in this page which explained that would be very good. Pretty please? Rd@cotswold-it.co.uk (talk) 22:58, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is it really an instrument?

There is still not an answer to the question above ("What does it do?"), at least for someone who expects an "instrument". If it weren't for the loudspeakers, I'd expect to see it described as a controller or interface. More detail about sound production, if any, and the functions of the array of buttons beyond "Any of these switches may be activated in a number of different ways" would certainly be helpful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:16B8:2CF6:F200:CD47:83AD:AA4F:4621 (talk) 14:04, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, i found [[1]] Which says it generates its own sounds via AWM2 sound generation technology (a newer version of AWM used on older Yamaha synths), the article goes on to say the sounds it produces (via its loud speakers at the top as you have said) are pads, basses, piano, strings and organ. There are also 14 drum kits available on the unit too. Hope this helps Ijustwannabeawinner (talk) 12:56, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
