It is found that only two memory bank buttons (with 16 options).Ĭan we use the buttons 1, 2, 3. I used to perform stage shows, as you know there we need to switch over to various tones on selecting single buttons.

#YAMAHA PSR E403 PRICE IN CHENNAI UPDATE#
UPDATE (Dec 18 2011): I noticed an advertisement on The Hindu (dated Dec 17 2011) regarding a new model of Casio with Indian Instruments. UPDATE (Feb 7, 2010): Here is a nice comparison between Yamaha PSR i425 and Casio CTK 5000 (another indian focused model). But for stage performances, it is not a good choice. It is more than sufficient for self learning or practicing at home. I basically have a very modest Yamaha PSR 350 at home. Ofcourse it can't come close to a live instrument, but something is better than nothing.Ĭheck out the brochures of these 2 models: This is a welcome move and I hope it gets better and more affordable. Even drum pads have such tones in them for long.

I always thought why they couldn't reproduce an indian classical instrument on the keyboard. It can store songs and information in an SD card in addition to the USB port available. In addition to western tones and accompaniments, it has around 15 indian tones and 7 indian rhythm accompaniments. I did not check it out, but I was told that the Yamaha model was better than Casio. There is a new model from Casio too serving the indian market. The salesman told that this was made exclusively for india and hence it won't be available in other places like Singapore. This Yamaha keyboard was priced at around Rs. You can plugin your USB drive too to store or transfer songs or recordings. It had a pitch bend, which was absolutely necessary to serve the indian classical market.

So may be you should check yourselves if you are looking to buy one. The brochure says amazingly realistic sounds. However I did not check the other instruments. The western instrument tones such as the piano was not that good. There were also some indian style accompaniments like bollywood mix, bhangra, Qawwali, Bhajan, indian pop and even a tamil folk beat (which was basically a 6/8 beat which lacked punch).

The indian instruments included 2 types of sitar (very good), harmonium (single reed, double reed and triple reed - very good), sarod (not impressive), bansuri (OK), Tanpura (good) and indian percussions like tabla, dhol, mridangam, etc (very good). This contained certain indian instrument tones in addition to western instruments. I saw the demo of a new Yamaha Keyboard there. More than a month back, I had been to Sapthaswara Musicals in Mylapore to get some voice mics to aid in our practice sessions for the Inter Corporate Music Competition.
