Built-in USB Terminal
The USB port acts
as a MIDI interface, freeing you from having to purchase
other MIDI peripherals like cables and adapters to play
music. Simply connect to your computer, open your
favourite music software program and hit PLAY.
Easy Song Arranger
In addition to
each song's default style, you can select any other style
to play the song with the Easy Song Arranger feature. This
means that you can play a song that is normally a ballad,
for example, as a boss a nova, as a hip-hop tune, etc. You
can create totally different arrangements by changing the
style with which a song is played. You can also change the
song's melody voice and the keyboard voice for a complete
change of image.
Yamaha Education Suite
You can select
song you like and use it for a left-hand, right-hand, or
both-hands lesson. You can also use songs (only SMF format
0) downloaded from the Internet and saved to flash memory.
During the lesson you can play as slowly as you like, and
you can even play wrong notes. Song playback will slow
down to a speed you can handle. It's never too late to
start learning!
Music Database
You want to play
music in your favorite style, but you're not sure how to
select the best voice and style for the type of music you
want to play ... simply select the appropriate style from
the Music Database. The panel settings will automatically
be adjusted for the ideal combination of sounds and style!
Performance assistant technology
Play along with a
song on the instrument's keyboard and produce a perfect
performance every time ... even if you play wrong notes!
All you have to do is play on the keyboard--alternately on
the left- and right-hand ranges of the keyboard, for
example--and you'll sound like a pro as long as you play
in time with the music.
Portable Grand™ button
Playing piano is
fast and easy with Yamaha's Portable Grand function. One
dedicated button brings up a great sounding piano,
stunningly rich and authentic in its sound and
exceptionally responsive to your playing touch, as well as
setting up the keyboard to play as a piano in full
keyboard mode. |
