This comment or observation could go into several categories however I have both the M8 and PA5x for comparison.
I'm not sure specifically whether the touch screen is capacitive but I think that it is on the Korg. If it isn't it's exceptionally responsive.
It's so responsive that I can actually play on it in many ways such as change instruments seamlessly instantly in real time. I'm betting the G2 can not do this and I know the M8x can't do this.
It's another dimension related to real time playing I can literally DJ from the touch screen without flaws, lag or error.
This feature relates back to a previous discussion concerning what's most important; sound quality vs UI vs built quality/features etc.
The only PA5x touch screen "compliant" is that if you accidently get close enough to it to change something inadvertently. Not much of a complaint once you are aware of it. So yeah this is probably more of a comparison to G2 however they all have touch screens and Yamaha didn't improve on the Montage thus it's still squirrelly acting. Just a corner that shouldn't have been cut IMO on Montage rev2.
