Yamaha Portable Keyboard-PSRE473

One of the few PSR-E series devices with two channels for insertion effects is the PSR-E473. With the most recent LSI tone generator, this instrument produces high-quality effects that were previously only seen in high-end versions.Yamaha updated the control panel and LCD, eliminated the numeric keypad, and introduced Direct Category Access buttons. The redesigned control panel makes it quick and easy to access Voices, Styles, and functions, allowing you to spend more time being creative. You can intuitively convey the sounds you're hearing in your head with dedicated buttons, Quick Sampling, and revolutionary Motion Effect features.
