Yamaha PSR I300 Portable Keyboard

Full Description

Infinitely versatile

The PSR-I300 has an exceptional Auto-Accompaniment function known as "Styles," which adds accompaniment and rhythm to your music while playing chords with your left hand. An extensive range of support functions includes Smart Chord for one-finger performance, a Music Database suggesting frequently used combinations of Voices and Styles, and a Chord Dictionary for chord look-ups. This keyboard caters to a wide range of genres, including rock, jazz, and the patterns found in Indian music.

The Riyaz Lite function plays Tabla/Mridangam and Tanpura, facilitating scale practice and singing while providing backing for Indian music. It's the perfect keyboard for anyone who wants to perform with Styles without any knowledge of chords or music. From classic songs known worldwide to the Raga scales unique to Indian music, the PSR-I300 keyboard has a variety of lessons for independent study that will put beginner players at ease. These lessons are designed to help you learn and master everything you need, making it the perfect keyboard for beginners.

Touch sensitive keyboard

The easy-to-use keyboard makes the learning experience as simple as ABC. With a touch-sensitive keyboard system that responds to your style of play, the I300 is perfect for an expressive and emotive performance. Integrated with the lesson functions, the keyboard offers you a detailed review of your performance so you can improve your skills. The touch sensitivity on the PSR I300 gets your playing closer to a high-end piano.

Premium DSP effects

To add a new dimension to your performances, the PSR I300 comes complete with premium DSP (Digital Signal Processor) effects. Now you can add a variety of on-board effects to your sounds and enhance your overall vibe!
