- 487 voices total - 11 drum kits with a few dj sounds - USB-Midi interface built in eliminating need for additional midi-usb interface - Good for midi controlling - keys aren't weighted - no midi jacks, just usb, so you can't expand much, other than just into a computer
$200 USD
UTILIZATION
If you read the manual and follow directions closely, you can easily hook it up to pc/mac for Midi controlling with included software. Works with virtual instruments with many programs (I used cakewalk).
OVERALL OPINION
Overall pretty clean for a keyboard. Can't produce sounds like a Yamaha digital piano, but it's also $300 cheaper.
Well built, it's a Yamaha
Good for practicing keyboarding. Decent for MIDI controlling. USB saves the hassel of dealing with usb-midi interfaces. Can't hook it up to hardware sequencers/samplers though. If you like making beats with computers, for around $200, it's great.
