TAKE A VIRTUAL TOUR OF YAMAHA PRODUCTS

No travel necessary with "Virtual Tours"

BUENA PARK, CA (August 30, 2002)—Yamaha Corporation of America, Pro Audio & Combo Division, has produced a series of "Virtual Tour" demonstrations for a selection of Yamaha portable keyboard products. Using FLASH technology, internet users can view function demonstrations, control panel and work surface closeups, and hear sound clips from the Yamaha 9000PRO, PSR9000, plus the PSR1000 and PSR2000—which also offer talking demonstrations. Virtual tours may be accessed from the "Demo" section of the appropriate Yamaha product pages, or viewed at the following:

"The 'Virtual Tour' presents an ideal option for present and potential customers to go online and learn about products from their office or living room," states Mark Anderson, product manager, Yamaha portable keyboards. "Likewise, it's an ideal teaching tool for music dealers to educate their sales staff."

Future online tours are planned for products for the Yamaha Piano and Digital Musical Instrument divisions, and a tour of the recently-introduced TYROS is currently under development.
