I just ordered the CP 88 and (never noticed b4) I assumed that the polyphony of 256 would for sure be the same as most other NEW keyboards especially the P 515 .? Why would 'nt I need 256 for my performances . Why would Yamaha cheap out on the polyphony of only 128 ? I would have even paid extra for it.....better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it Why is it that I will not need (or not want ) 256 polyphony especially later on ? This really ,really upsets me !!!!!! I guess never assume !! Is this not a PRO model and not a home P 515 ?What am I missing here ?

That the number of notes of polyphony do not necessarily determine if a keyboard is “pro” or “home”.
The P515 is 16-Part multi-timbral with a built-in 16-Track Song Recorder for GM/XG song playback. Optional (furniture) stand — this makes it perfect for the living room or den.
The CP88 Stage is a 3-Part engine, with a 4-Zone Master Keyboard feature for use as a Controller on stage. It features a PB Wheel, and MW for performing, and two jacks for optional Assignable Foot Pedals, plus an assignable Foot Switch. Both balanced and unbalanced stereo outputs... and a stereo input unbalanced 1/4” for connecting an external keyboard/module — these features make it at home on the stage as the center of a stage rig.
These are some of the things that make the CP88 Stage “pro” ...that and the real-time access to customizing and storing your sounds and your entire stage rig’s setup!
