Touch-Sensitive Keys Enable Expressive Playing
The PSR-E383's 61 touch-sensitive keys detect how firmly you press them, allowing volume changes based on your touch.

Great Yamaha keyboard
I bought this for my kid and myself. I loved being able to pick up at the store. I don't want a keyboard sitting outside my house after being delivered. This is great sounding and it has a lot of sounds and beats. Even though it has midi I like that I don't need a computer. And I like that it's made by a reputable music company like Yamaha.

A passing fancy!
Having had previous keyboards, including a top line model in the 1990's, and a small one for use when traveling, I am disappointed with this keyboard. I thought after 30 years, there would be more flexibility in setup. I use split keyboard, and have always had two instruments on right, and something different on left. Yamaha has no individual volume adjustment, so the secondary right "sound" is not loud enough, should be adjustable. Same for the left hand on split keyboard. Also should be adjustable for key, so that left hand could be an octave higher, as my previous 2 keyboards and digital piano were able to do.

This product is better than expected simple to record will work for experience musicians unless looking for studio style recordings… Have only spent a small amount of time on it. Sounds are good. For the money can't go wrong worth more I think… A pitch blend wheel would help with its enhancements. My PSR 2000 sound board and display went out can't find parts, so I didn't want to spend a lot of money on another after have not played in about nine years… This will do for now and then maybe the PSR 425 because of microphone set up. I also purchased the p-225 88 key piano…

When I first got the product, I was actually overwhelmed because of all the buttons, but everything was easy once I started playing with it. It also easily plugged in with a midi cord, so it was easy for me to use it with my music software. I highly recommend this product.

I bought this keyboard for learning how to play. Been practicing everyday and it's been perfect for what I need. The volume is very clear, never need to use it at it's loudest. The options are very accessible and easy to understand and configure. I also love that I can connect the keyboard to my computer, phone or tablet via USB. Very happy with my purchase!
