    Yamaha DGX 300

    This unit cost £327.00 from a Churchills Music in Bristol. The cost included courier delivery and a really heavy duty power unit. This was what swung the deal, as most other suppliers were charging extra for both.

    Right from opening the box, this is a really beautiful piece of kit. It just oozes musical professionalism. The Grand Piano sound is excellent, and with the choice of effects and styles on board, you would be very hard pushed to find fault with this keyboard. If anything, your playing would improve.
    It has a disc drive, so recording your own music, and downloading more midi files, of which there are thousands free on the web is a piece of cake.

    So far I haven't found out how to use my own Style (.sty) files with the keyboard,
    and I am having difficulty setting the melody volume. There seem to be two volume settings, for accompaniment, and style. probably I just haven't got the hang of it yet, but it isn't too clear in the manual.

    The manual is good to fair, but could be a lot better.

    The build of the unit is first class.
    Can't fault it at all. Everything easy to get at, and the built in speakers (3 each side) are very good quality.

    Go get yourself one. This is about the best value I've ever seen in a keyboard.
    If you like 'real' piano music, then this is for you too.
    With 78 keys, and as many sounds as you'll ever want, this is truly an awesome keyboard.

    7 octave keyboard arranger.
    MIDI connectors, headphone jack, sustain pedals.
    619 voices, 135 accompaniment., 135 styles, 208 music data base functions.
    Sharing feature of the keyboard, polyphony on a same key, floppy floppy's.
    5 + 1 recording tracks backing track (for the battery for example).
    Possibility of having the support varies according to agreements.

    UTILIZATION

    The handling of the keyboard is comfortable to put out this function as the lead arranger o it will help in the manual.
    The functions are fairly intuitive especially with the LCD screen.
    The manual trs are clear, as tjrs with Yamaha, and some notions of music are discussed.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a year.
    What trs enjoyable with this keyboard is to piuvoir do many things alone, to register, call, etc.. While the feel of the keyboard is much better than on other keyboards equivalent of competition, I wish I did not have a heavy touch.
    I tried to choose before tournament ROLAND, CASIO & KORG.
    The ratio Q / P in addition to ^ be excellent, it is unbeatable. Keyboards 7 arranger octves not lgions especially in this price range.
    I do it again this choice compared to other models.

    7 Octaves
    MIDI connectors / Headphones / substain
    619 sounds / 136 Accompaniment Styles / 208 music accompaniment / 100 pieces
    Dual functions (2 sounds together) and Split (sharing the keyboard)
    LCD Keyboard

    UTILIZATION

    easy to take in hand. It is easy to use and play the accompaniment. It is easy to edit sounds and make these mixtures to obtain new sounds nice.
    The database of sounds and accompaniments is correct but it is still lower as compared to the upper keyboard ranges.

    The MIDI recording and editing is a bit more complex and requires extensive reading of the manual. First
