Yamaha PSR-S710 Keyboard

The Yamaha PSR-S710 Keyboard is an arranger for professional musicians who are looking for an affordable option but something that is still a professional keyboard, something that is better than the psr-s550 in Yamaha's arranger keyboard series. In case you have been using an entry level or mid range keyboard like the psr-e423, then the PSR-S710 is a good keyboard to own especially if you are keen on music production as well. It has many useful features and is available at a much lower price than the psr-s910.

In terms of cost, this Workstation keyboard is less than the 1500 dollars mark. Not real cheap but this is the range from where most entry level arranger workstation keyboards start. There are many keyboards that are much more expensive, but this keyboard offers a nice balance of features and cost. If you have been looking for professional sound & features then this is the keyboard to consider. The addition of USB audio to recording on the Yamaha psr-s710 keyboard delivers tremendous benefit for all musicians, irrespective of whether you are a hobbyist musician or pro looking to use this keyboard in public. As you go higher in the PSR arranger series, you will find most of the keyboards retaining some sounds from the topmost models like the Tyros and the psrs910. The same applies to this keyboard as well.

Most sounds have been retained from the higher PSR arranger models, so you can certainly expect the sounds & styles to be a lot better. You get around 850 plus realistic sounds. It has Polyphony of 128-note max, which is good enough for most purposes. The 16-track sequencer will let you create complex arrangements. Large LCD screen lets you see lyrics, chords, notations and all the selections that you have made. Internet Direct Connectivity and USB connectivity lets you expand the capabilities of your keyboard since you can make it work with useful software on a computer.
