Yamaha PSRE283 61-key Entry-level Portable Keyboard

61-key Portable Arranger Keyboard with 28-note Polyphony, Accompaniment Styles, and Onboard Song Lessons

Yamaha’s PSR-E283 is a 61-key portable arranger keyboard designed specifically for those just beginning their musical journey. It’s packed with everything you need to create great-sounding musical pieces from scratch, including realistic instrument voices, onboard lessons, and a Smart Chord function that helps you play complex chords with just one finger. There’s also a Style function that automatically delivers rhythm and bass accompaniment; musicians here at Musiekwereld are particularly keen on how this allows you to achieve a full-band sound on your own. As far as a versatile beginner keyboard that’s packed with supportive appointments, the Yamaha PSR-E283 sits at the top of its class.

Explore, create, and store your own sounds

To keep your creative juices flowing, this arranger comes with a formidable set of features. It’s all powered by Yamaha’s AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) stereo sampling engine that re-creates the natural dynamics of acoustic instruments by playing back samples of different playing strengths. There’s also an expansive collection of voices for you to explore, play with, and tweak. Once you find a setting that you like, Registration Memories come into play. You can save and recall voice settings and styles with just a few button presses.

Ideal for beginners

To ensure that anyone can learn to play keys, Yamaha added a Song Lesson feature to this arranger that enables you to listen to a model performance, improve your timing, and more. You’ll be able to learn at your own pace, and thanks to Duo Mode, you can even practice with a friend or teacher! Once you hit the Duo Mode button, the keys will be split into two separate keyboards with the same octave range.
