Yamaha PSR-3000

Arranger keyboard with color LCD screen
Host USB port for connection to a computer Midi
USB to Device (USB 1.1 also supports USB 2.0 but 1.1) for connecting external peripherals:

1) USB HUB
2) USB to LAN connection for internet keyboard
3) Hard Drive
4) CD
5) USB Cls
6) any format card reader (MS / Compact Flash / Memory Stick ....)

It comes with a floppy drive and an external USB SmartMedia card reader Intgr. Bed and described on maps until 128 MB

Finally tl output for connecting a television (traditional or LCD) and choose between PAL or NTSC. Computer monitors are not accepted (unless they possdent a TV tuner). This displays the score, the words or clicks on the keyboard. It can also display the score on the keyboard and words on TV.

UTILIZATION

The keyboard is oprationel standalone ds out of the box and APRS connecting the power supply (provided with).

For connecting a computer, it's not more complicated. You plug a USB cable (not supplied) the keyboard is recognized immediately, there is just install the driver and then restart the computer and keyboard.

For those who used an adj PSR (1000, 2000, 1100, 2100) or the Tyros PERIOD adaptation is ngligeable. For others it's a keyboard quite easy to implement.

Note that the part ORGAN FLUTES which allows for a formulation of a Hammond LOT amliore t with 9 drawbars floor of 0 8 and the rendering is great.

As usual the Manual Yamaha is not a "BIBLE" and external hard drives we say we can use but not a word about the capacity or the type of formatting (FAT 16, FAT 32 or NTFS )

So this guide will lower a little note

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 7 days but before I had a PSR-2000 which represents the basis of a PSR-3000.

Likes:

1) See the description above.
2) The path south.
3) The MegaVoice make this a mini keyboard Tyros.
4) The wide range of storage devices.
5) The compatibility GM, GM2, XG, XF, GS.
6) Small books Yamaha software with the keyboard (Megaehancer to replace the normal channels by MegaVoice / Musicsoft Downloader is a mini Windows Explorer but for the keyboard).

I dislike:

1) the manual not complete enough
2) The Downloader because it forces the cut / paste files and not copy / paste.

A keyboard with a good quality of TRS with USB port and Internet connection without using a computer, well I found no equivalent.

This is a keyboard that I pay less than 1600 in the Paris suburbs in an agr Yamaha dealer who will never sells Yamaha keyboards. It is a good value qualitprix trs.

I would do without this choice hsiter.

Type synthe 5 octaves, midi in and out out out the jack and ren 6.35 and RCA and USB to host jack, microphone jack 829 sounds and 240 styles, sections of DSP effects, 16 tracks sequencer

UTILIZATION

Config generally easy to use as well as edit sounds and effects, the manual is clear

OVERALL OPINION

I have the last two weeks, great sound and great support over it accepts the style of other brands (Roland, Korg, Technics, gen, Solton) no other attempts to model I rely on magazine and opinion on the net (j've tried a tyros what I believe, the tyros psr 3000 is a free hard drive without the system and subwoofer and the satellite). The quality / price is correct 1579euro in France as a gift a piano with a support 256 usb keys, a headset and an USB floppy drive. I would do the same choice without hesitate
