Good Value for the Cash

I compose music, and perform live. Own and use SX-700 about 5 weeks, so use a grain of salt with this comment... What's Not: Design seems less practical than aesthetic, the USB port requires awkward peering and body position to install and remove. Computers have moved the USBs to the front YEARS AGO, catch up Yamaha! Tell your Chief Designer he is wrong and the young guy who agitated for putting it on the front is right! Familiar Computer method: 1) Click on object, 2) rt-click COPY, 3) rt-click PASTE. Odd SX-700 Screen: 2) Touch COPY, 1) touch object, ?) touch "SAVE HERE". Yeah, not normal, obvious, or explained in manual. Try changing SAVE HERE to PASTE. Keys are too slippery, what's wrong with a bit of friction? I get that top performers likely don't have an issue with finger placement, but what percentage of your market are they? FAQ online are TEN YEARS OLD! Really? How about some updates? And are not sorted to model. Klunky and not useful. Chat session timed out with John, no answer, no warning, no reason. What's hot: Voices are yummy, friends say they are hardly distinguishable from real instrumentation. Styles are fun. Intro, Main, Break, Exit just great. I look forward to years of pleasure with this keyboard. WISHES: I wish you had BANKS of intros, mains, breaks, exits instead of only one rack for each style. I wish there was a strip of LED lighting at the back of the keyboard for the low-light situations. I wish Yamaha provided video tutorial for each step and concept in the Owner's Manual. Seems written by geeks but is read by artists.

OK but expected more after 11 year old PSR 710

Have been playing keyboard for 30 years, mostly on Yamaha products. Best choice so far has been my now 11 year old PSR 710 keyboard. Had to do some repairs to keys, as were not working properly but otherwise has been reliable. Now have SX700 keyboard. After 2 months of use, I have to say that my OLD model is still overall a better choice. Menu is much more organized, with all key information readily available at the home screen. To find the same info on SX 700, have to either pull up other menus or look at some TINY number or symbol in an obscure location. Home screen should be user adjustable, so can add or delete which screen items want to see. Three generations later and sadly, not much improvement IMO.

    I bought a Yamaha PSR SX900 from the Roseville GC. Ben was the sales guy. He was very helpful and ordered it for me. Arrived three days later at this store. Perfect sales and support. Highly recommend.

    This keyboard is a dream to use! I was able to record music within the first 30 minutes. As I spent more time on it, I did notice a couple of things that kind of annoy me! 1) by default, left hand voice is Always off. Have to press Left hand voice button, then if I change preset voice (1-4) it turns off again. 2) in order to block unit from changing what the pedals do I have to make sure "lock" is on. Why can't these two issues be added to the lock function ? Aside from these two little gripes, I am having way too much fun just playing whatever comes to mind.

    I bought this keyboard in July of 2020, and I have nothing but great things to say about this unit. I use it in church every Sunday. It is now February of 2024 and it's still going strong. I can even use this unit as a tone generator for my midi accordion. I only wish it had 88 full sized weighted keys.

    I loved playing Yamaha PSR SX-700, nice and easy to play, the sound quality, the voices and styles, i have extra expansion packs downloaded and installed and I play in my church worship. I love playing this board in our church, recording new songs. Yamaha is the best.

    You can't record the song on the keyboard you would need to attach the keyboard to your computer and record through the computer.
