two different non-piano sounds (a jazz organ instead of a second church organ, and a choir instead of a second harpsichord)Ī) The P95 has a nice matte finish to the black keys, the P85 has the glossier, more plasticky finish. (Though I realize they could have tried both and not mentioned it.)Īnyway, here are what appear to be definite or likely differences: And in all the messages I saw that said they sounded/felt the same, there were a total of zero from people who said they'd actually played both of them, which makes me feel less confident about their opinions. I could have missed some posts, but the one and only person I found here who actually said he played both instruments side by side (Liztique) said he noticed differences in the sound and feel. However, the more I looked into this, the more I saw that there are some notable differences between the two models. As far as I can tell, this idea traces back to comments made when the P95 was announced, by people who had never played a P95 (it wasn't out yet), and the premise has been repeated religiously by numerous people ever since. Whenever discussion about low-priced DPs start around here, almost always someone mentions the Yamaha P95 and says that the older P85 is pretty much the same (except for a couple of its non-piano sounds).
