As an owner of an E363 it does everything I need it to do, the voices are cool, touch sensitive keyboard is great, sound quality is great, overall I'm satisfied for the value of money I've gotten from this keyboard. This is super cool for amateur learning musicians trying to improve their skills but maybe not made for pros.
@@user-qw3qu1wb4f casio ct3200 is very good,i have it at the moment,depends on what u want,..i can tell u its very good for midi control and good quality voices are about 402..entry level its perfekt
Well done on a great video. I just bought this keyboard and was a little bit crestfallen after watching your "10 Bad things about the PSR-E463". However, you've demonstrated it's attributes and suitability for a whole range of musicians. So I now realise, it's probably just right for me as someone who wants to revive my interest in music after a hiatus of 30 years! Thanks again.
I have a PSR-E463 and it is also NOT suitable for playing really large midi files from the USB memory stick. I ran into problems when trying to play the midi file of 'Tubular Bells' from a stick. However, I could play the file when the keyboard was hooked up to my DAW. Just thought I'd let people know.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHEARING IM A VERY HAPPY OWNER OF MY YAMAHA PSR E463 LOVE PLAYING IT I CAN PLUG MY PHONE INTO THE AUDIO JACK IN THE BACK I CAN DO MORE WITH THE KEYBOARD. LOVE IT.
Nice I'd say that the PSR E series are suitable for beginners and advanced players or those who are on a budget, however if you're a professional, you'd choose the PSR S series for more functions and sounds.
I had a psr. I learned synchronized stopping and starting, variant filtered instrumentation, and music arrangements (instrument by instrument) all on the psr, and played the styles too with enjoyment, as well as used the harmonic tones you can set for the voices, and learned to do them all myself on the keyboard afterward: and all with the psr! I’ve been dabbling with music since childhood, and my first keyboard was a toy Casio. I then graduated to the accordion and drums. Later, I graduated to another Casio (still cheap!), then graduated to my beloved psr for “real professional sounds and play.” After some years and nicknames from schoolmates friends and family, I graduated to an oxygen midi, using daw in GarageBand to arrange and produce off my MacBook Pro, till the damn laptop broke! Now, I’m looking into the best yet cheapest workstation I can find. No Roland or Casio- they’re toys to me!
Why it's not suitable for me? Two reasons 1. Lack of style and sound editing features 2. Doesn't have Rhodes and Wurlitzer sounds. All the electric pianos are synthesized 80's style
every time i watch a video like this (from you also) i change my mind on what to get. Its frustrating. Im a tottal beginner 29 years old. I want to learn piano but also have the fun options of different sounds and things you can do with a keyboard (Play from classical pieces to modern music). I also have understood that playing with weighted keys is uncompareable to non weighted. Im in a position where i dont know if i should invest on a more expensive machine or buy something cheap and than upgrade. My options were narrowed down to ew300 or ew400 (i kinda want 76 keys over 61 which raise the price) casio wk7600, also i was thinking about p45 although its not a keyboard. Now i see the DGX-660 you just mentioned and has everything i need but its like 755 euros.. What is your opinion for my case, i know there are a lot of people in the same exact situation. Im researching 3 days now and havent decided yet.
Hi Jeremy, Nice and informative video as usual.👍 For a real beginner (for instance, a kid who is not sure of going on with the piano after the first 6 months), I’d say the PSR EW300 could also make a sensible option, costing only 200 USD and having the 76 keys which will suffice for most piano pieces, plus all the nice features of the PSR E363. After 6 months or one year, if the kid is still serious about piano playing, he/she could then move on to a Casio Privia or a Yamaha DGX 660 (a second-hand DGX 650 or 640 could also be an option). Having learned the piano before I moved on to keyboard, I went through the option you suggested: buying a cheap, used, real acoustic piano. I had one some years ago. It had a lovely sound (which was the reason I bought it in the first place). There were two big issues, though: 1) I had to pay half the amount that had paid for the piano itself to have it moved to my home and 2) it costed a fortune to tune it and when it was tuned, it remained in tune for maybe one month, then started to sound out of tune again, which I couldn’t stand because as you noticed, I have sharped ears LoL 😂 So I decided to sell my acoustic piano and buy the DGX 640, which had a nice piano sound, nice action, and was never out of tune! I then sold the DGX 640 a year later to buy the DGX 650, which, like the DGX 660, has the nice Natural! Grand piano of the higher-end Clavinovas. IMO, any serious piano player on a budget should go in a music shop and try the DGX 660. Now I’d like to buy the PSR E463 on top of the DGX 650 because 1) I had a PSR E433 and liked the creative possibilities it offered and the E463 has even more possibilities and 2) as you pointed out, the DGX 640-640-660 are moveable (from the living-room to a sleeping room for instance) but not portable (not suitable for gigging). I think that the PSR E463 is really a great tool for musical improvisation and composing, with all its sounds, rhythms, arpeggios and other features such as DSP effects, arpeggios, Live knobs etc. IMO it is a good stepping point into the world of song arrangement and sound synthesis before investing in higher-end workstations or synthesisers. Regards. 😎
Hi Jeremy, thank you very much for your reviews. learn so much from them. I am a beginner and looking to buy my first keyboard. Been told to consider the Yamaha YPT 360. What are the differences between the YPT 360 and the PSR E363? Which will be your pick, please? Thank you once again.
You can do exactly what I was hoping you can do. my order came in today. There is a phones/output on the back of the keyboard. Plug a quarter inch into the that spot and plug it into the instrument line on your audio interface and you can use it as a physical instrument inside any daw. This way you dont have to install any drivers and take up space n your computer to record your projects.
Well.. i have a psr e 363 and it does everything a hispanic person needs but i recentoy got the PSR-E463 its.coming on monday and im excited to open it but if your looking for a cheap keyboard just buy the psr e 363 or the psr e 463
Hi Jeremy, how is doing? I'm from Brazil, and new to your channel, and all videos are amazing, thanks for your dedication to them. I have a question. I'm absolut begineer and I intend to buy a keyboard. I was gifetd to an 49 keys midi controller, But i do have a daw to use it. My intention is to in the future play and produce eletronic music (not restricted to edm) for my leisure. PSR-E463 is an option for me? Or is better to go for a synthetizer like Casio XW-P1? Or psr first then go to a synthetizer?
Thank you so much for the Vid you do it so well done. I am looking for longevity keyboards what do you recommend I am looking for something affordable but something that will last me for years to come
Yo!!!! Jereme how u doing thanks for this video, well I browse little about Yamaha Geno's, woo what a machine super sounds, user friendly functions, one touch switching more registrations I really like it thought the price is totally out budget right now.... But it's takes my heart wonderfully engenering.
In the phils, this costs almost Peso 20,000 ($400) The higher price, the better sound. I think for amateur performers, this is already fine. But for long time professional.performers, you can settle for higher priced keyboards.
I'm starting off as a sheer beginner and have recently got hold of the Yamaha PSR E463... I will begin my piano lessons starting this September but otherwise, I'll have to catch up to everything on my own... How do you think I should approach it if I wish to master piano & arranger skills along with working professionally on MIDI systems to compose music & songs...?
Deb E Get yourself a book focused on arranger keyboard playing, like one of the Trinity books of one of the books by Kenneth Baker. Maybe Jeremy could give us some book suggestions in the next Q&A? This would really be cool.
Hi . I’m 58 & want to finally fulfill my dream of being able to play the organ. I have zero knowledge of music. Can you tell me what model of Yamaha keyboard is suited for me? I like to learn to play the oldies tunes. Thanks.
Thank you sir for replying My question....it's a grt work you are doing sir... Love from India! Sir I work with both western as well as Indian music.. will Yamaha PSR E463 or Roland EX 20 do better for me...?
@Jeremy See: Do you think it was stupid that I just ordered the Yamaha PSR-E363 because I want to play keyboard, what I have started in the 90s and given up after some years because of jobs and different liefstyle, bevor the new PSR-E373 comes on the market?! Should I cancel now and wait until end of october?!
I want to learn to play the piano. what do you think about the "alesis v61"? it's semi-weighted, has touch velocity, full size. BUT, it's a MIDI controller (I understand what the MIDI controller is)
Hi Jeremy (or anybody who wants to chime in). Planning to buy my son a keyboard for his 10th birthday, it will be his very first keyboard and will start to learn from zero knowledge (I've been teaching him a bit of guitar, ukulele and bass - all beginner level and simple chords). He's not interested in playing classical piano music but wants to learn how to play modern pop songs we can sing along to in the family room. I've pretty much watched all your videos about the PSR range and the CTX range and I am still confused which one to choose between Psr e463 and Casio Ct-x800 (they are similarly priced where i live). Which one is more useable if ever he improved in a couple of years time and not have the need to upgrade very soon.....or Which one is the best bang for the buck? Please help! Thanks in advance.
Sir...I am 40... planning to learn Keyboard as I am really feeling I don't have a hobby and feeling that during these unprecedented times....also wanted to teach my Daughter and Son who are 9 and 6 respectively....can I buy this Keyboard??..... please suggest??
Hi, I am just a beginner. Looking to buy a keyboard under 200 dollars. Which will be best for me? My friend has suggested E363 model. I want to do youtube cover songs basically. I use audacity regularly and wish to play with MIDI functions. Please reply if you have time.
HI Sir. I m a beginner from India in Keyboard training playing a Bollywood songs. Plz suggest me a good keyboard. Lot of confusion between Yamaha PSR F51, E363 & Casio CTK2500/3500 OR CASIO CTX700. If any other model plz suggest. PLZ HELP.
Anybody clever enough to play Chopin and Mozart would have to know a Yamama E463 would not be good enough. An 88 key digitial piano with weighted keys is quite a good option for someone who has not got space/money for a real piano. However, I think the E463 is the better option career-wise than a digital piano, unless of course you want to be a concert pianist!
If you're a beginner and you want to play classics in the future, but don't play them yet, you may not know anything about digital pianos/keyboards, weighted keys and other charactheristics and therefore not know if Y E463 is good or not to learn. Thus it was very good advice by Jeremy.
Hi Jeremy, loving your videos. I have a request. Can you get hold of the Casio CTK 7200 and do some videos. I've got my eye on that one, but I'd love to hear about your opinion on it before pouring down the cash. That'd help me out a lot.
I bought the Yamaha 453 a few years ago as a small gigging portable keyboard because I liked Yamaha over Casio sound from past experience. I took it back because it dropped out notes with layering sounds and a drum style. I bought the Casio ctk 7200 instead and kept it because of the 64 note polyphony and drawbar organ sliders. I can also edit sounds. I think I made the right choice for me. There are good and ok sounds on the keyboard. Depending on how you use your keyboard the 7200 is a good choice.
E363 is a great value for a beginner keyboard... It just lacks a pitch bender but otherwise very good voice and styles, and very affordable too. Look also for Casio model CT-X700 too.
Hi, Jeremy. Are you working as a Yamaha / Country Distributor with some different brands product specialist for a certain country? Thank you for sharing your school of helping thought. Keep your channel up, cheers!
Thank you for being our next generation public multi brand product category specialist and multi brands behaviour study coach. You are doing great, Bro! Where are you living at the moment? (if we may know)
Jeremy See With your level of proficiency at the keyboard, I am sure that any music shop in Singapore would be more then happy either to lend you some keyboards to do your demos on RU-vid, or to hire you to do live demos of keyboards of various brands in the their shop.
Ok you say EW410. So you mean that e463 grand piano sounds same as of e363 ?? Are they both sound same(e463 and e363) when in Grand Piano mode. Which has good grand piano sound e463 or e363 leaving EW410.
Hi Jeremy See! I encountered a problem with these keyboards. I see products named as e453 e463 e473. Are those typos or are there variants of each variant?
I just came to see if I should buy one, because I seen a display model on clearance for $279 at the Guitar Shop. I had to subscribe to your channel because you were brutally honest, yet still pointed out it's proper use. I am 52 and retired, so I may just get some Seagram's Escapes and binge watch your channel.
It depends. It is exactly as he said. If what you want is to learn excellent classical technique so that you come to play classical music and this is going to be your only or main instrument to exercise a lot and play, no, it isn't ok. He made some suggestions. You need at the least weighted keas, with a good hammer action.
Hi Jeremy, could you suggest me a beginner/intermediate keyboard to buy? I'm a beginner and I want to have a decent sound keyboard yet budget friendly.
IS THERE ANY (MORE OR LESS) EQUIVALENT KEY BOARDS (INCLUDING QUALITY AND FUMCTIONS) OF KORG PA4X (OF ANY OTHER COMPANY PERHAPS) WHICH COSTS MUCH MUCH LESSER?
Hi there Jeremy I was just wondering is it correct that most of the PSR now only have a headphone and not a main help output. do they sound ok through external speakers please. Thank you
Jeremy See the type you did for Happy Birthday, Für Elise or Perfect for instance, in which you show your own arrangement and make your own sheet music for the song.
I also have another question. I played the keyboard from ages 5 to a teenager. But i didn't have a teacher to teach me anything about it. Could this help in my skills at playing at all?
But the question is can I record arrangements into my daw with it. Like use it as an instrument create a track and record a layer. I domt want to control anything with it I just want to add some atmosphere to my music on my tracks
@@JeremySee could I theoretically plug a cable into the headphone/output put an adapter on the end quarter inch and run it strait into the front of my interface and select it in my daw through the interface so I dont have to download the driver for it and just use it as a physical instrument. Sorry I got alot of questions I'm an idiot when it comes to this stuff
Hi go to Yamaha website and download the manuals to both keyboards to check, but I am almost certain they are the same keyboard under two different names.
Hi sir...Can you please help me I am just a beginner but I want to learn classical music in my piano... So i am getting confused between Alesis Recital 88 keys for beginner and yamaha psr463.. Because Alesis has less options than yamaha but it has weighted keys and touch sensitivity
Hello Jeremy what a good Keyboard for Contemporary Christian Music for a small church I had the yamaha 410 but I didn't like I took it back not crazy about the sound now I am looking into Casio WK 7600, WK 6600 and Privia PX-5s can you help me
Hey Jeremy next question If the church say no because it not in their budget for this year how about the Casio CTX-5000 will that be close to the Casio Privia PX-5s what will be close to the PX-5s thanks for your help.
