Budget Priced - Expensive Sound
The PSR-E333 offers built-in speakers featuring the Ultra-Wide Stereo DSP button which creates greater separation and a more spacious sound. Only a company like Yamaha - which pioneered sound projector technology in home theater - could add such sophisticated functionality to an entry-level keyboard.
"Entry-level keyboard customers are used to seeing 61 black and white keys with a panel of buttons and a display," says Dane Madsen, Yamaha Electronic Keyboard Marketing Manager. "It's the new Ultra-Wide Stereo DSP button that makes the new PSR-E Series stand out from the crowd. It creates the same 3D sense of space you'd experience with an elite surround sound system – at an incredibly affordable price."
Additional features include the Yamaha Education Suite―built-in lessons that let users teach themselves to play, a new power-saving mode and 61 full-sized keys. These highly affordable models also let users play along with a band using any of the 100-plus built-in accompaniment Styles, or use the dedicated Portable Grand button to instantly call-up a great sounding grand piano.
The PSR-E333 adds a USB port for computer connectivity, touch sensitive keys for expressive, piano-style playing and a more powerful speaker system for a fuller sound. Connected to a computer, the PSR-E333 is also an excellent XG-lite sound source for use with a variety of music software.
`The new PSR-E333 is a great instrument for introducing or re-introducing players to making music. Playing along with the built-in Styles is a fun way to develop a good sense of time and rhythm without the strict feeling of a metronome. They're also an excellent `band` that will always follow you whenever inspiration strikes,` added Madsen.
Yamaha PSR E333 ships with Manuals, Music Rest and Adaptor as standard
