For a Piano Player the EW425 really appeals, mainly due to it's extra keys and better samples Great comparison as always!

Jer, really good comparison video. You really went the extra mile and covered a lot of possibilities. Nice job!

Thanks Jeremy… your video is perfect.. Your comparison is more than fair in highlighting each machines strength Cheers from 🇨🇦

And as always, the Yamaha keyboard PSR-EW425 is my definite choice, and I won't change my choice. Thank you so much Jeremy See for doing a comparison on these 2022 Yamaha Keyboards, especially on Yamaha's updated E-series. Thanks a lot sir 🥰

I am busy in my studio because of purchases made on your recommendation. Thank you, Jeremy.

Another Great Demonstration Jeremy. As you started playing the Organ Voices, my Eyes were drawn to the Leslie / Fridge, behind You 😉👍👍👍

Thanks for your review, Jeremy. It is very helpful to me in making a decision. Actually, I'm going to order both models, for different locations in my house.

Well explained. KEEP GOING AHEAD!

Great comparison, helped a lot!

super material danke Jeremy

Both of these keyboards were brought out by Yamaha in mid 2022 at the same time. The thing is that the PSR-E473 originally brought out in 2022 has in 2024 been upgraded to the PSR-E483. Said by a large Euro retailer to be available just prior to July 2024. Therefore for those wanting the PSR-E473 they could pay a bit more and get the PSR-E483, after that is checking out the differences on Yamaha web site. Best to. Some differences but not a great deal of them I notice. Who wants a used older model though? should the intent be to sell it on later on. In the longer term it would not matter so much. Though any remaining PSR-E473's may soon see a price drop, just so that Yamaha and the dealers get rid of them all. A nice bargain could be had. Also then we could be seeing soon an upgrade coming on the PSR-EW425. Yamaha have not released any details about it though later on this year I suspect it may get an upgrade. Maybe, maybe not. The 76 key PSR-EW310 however is getting an upgrade at the same time as the PSR-E473, it'll also be in stores around July 2024 time in the guise of a PSR-E320. Originally brought out in 2020. I would imagine the dealers prefer newer models as over the years the retail prices do tend to drop from the original RRP. With a brand new model for a while they can stick to the RRP set by Yamaha and maybe make a nice bit of profit, then the numerous Yamaha dealers gradually drop the retail price, so that 'they' get a sale and not some other Yamaha dealer. I get the feeling a PSR-EW435 could be on the way, though from what we hear in this video both the PSR-E473 and the PSR-EW425 sound good enough for me. Even folk more in to Synthesizers than these Yamaha/Casio type home keyboards are better off getting something similar to these Yamaha PSR range of keyboards. Having a good collection of the established musical instruments of the world on a keyboard, and having them 'actually sounding' like these instruments can be a handy addition to whatever synthy type music that they do like to make. Mind you having just looked through the online manuals, neither of these Yamaha models have 5 pin midi in/out, just usb midi to a computer. So I would not be too keen on either, having other 5 pin din midi equipment that can't connect to a computer without first purchasing a midi interface unit. $120+ for a decent ESI M4U type one. Manufacturers reluctance to fit 5 pin midi in/out on their products loses a sale there then with me. It would cost them $25 at most and make these keyboards far more versatile. Not just having it computer based or in stand alone mode.

The usual stuff - entertaining, informative 👍 Jeremy talks like a teacher, even though English is not my native language, due to the way he talks, I can understand every single word! 🙂

Another great video, thanks!

Thank u so much sir for making this kinds of videos appreciate it so much😊😊😊

Nice comparative review and with enough detail to decide which one is better suited to the player 👏

Thank you, Jeremy, for this excellent review, as always. Towards the end of your piano voice demos for each instrument, I noticed you operated several other controls. Can you comment on what you are doing in future review videos. Cheers.

Watching your channel made me decide to buy PSR EW 423 76 keys that I can carry out from my home .I was told by our department to play music this coming December not only that I will be the DG .I have a Yamaha 88 keys keyboard but it’s heavy and attached to a wood stand .I have 61 keys that I have been carrying outside but it’s limited features/ small for my fingers since I upgraded to 88 keys. Thank you again for your channel.More power to you.

These are so helpful!

Cool! Thanks for sharing.

Hey Jeremy, Donner just came out with a upgrade of the Donner DP-20 and its called the Donner SE-1, i would love if you reviewed that one!! Great video by the way

Thank u for the review I am going to buy E473

Regarding somre orgnan voices, the user's manual on page 11 states the following: "Voices of numbers 28-37 have the same display names on both the PSR-E473 and PSR-EW425. However, on the PSR-EW425, a percussive click sound at key-on/key-off and a leakage sound are added, providing more realistic vintage organ sounds."

Woow, thank you for this great Video!! I didn't know that these two models are almost the same. I think I'll take the cheaper one for my small music room!!

Hello Jeremy,you're videos are the best for those who buy a keyboard but after getting it,there's some common things we should do and shouldn't do,so can you please upload a video which explains the do's and don'ts of a keyboard,It'll help each and every one who has a keyboard,like how to properly on and off a keyboard,some safety precautions,etc... It's better to know these from a expert like you.

Hello Jeremy. Thanks to your advices I decided to buy the PSR-E473. After switching from ancient psr-270 I must say that the quality of the new one is overwhelming

You convinced me … usually a casio fan however this EW just sounds better than x-5000 and Korg E50. Worth pushing the boat out for additional keys and earthier tones. Love the videos, Now to find best price in Singers, as all my other keyboards back in blighty !! 👍

Just purchased the EW425 online and eagerly awaiting its arrival. Thanks for sharing this. I was thinking about the E473 but when I saw your other video about the display problems I went for the EW425 instead. For only a few dollars more I agree with you and I think the EW425 is much better value.

Thank you jermy Helpful

Everyone should know that if you buy an E-473, like I did, you may get stuck with a defective display (inconsistent contrast, with lighter/darker lettering and numbering). I bought in the U.S., and recently determined that I have the defective display. I have been unable to get the situation rectified so far through Guitar Center, where I bought the keyboard. Apparently Yamaha is not standing behind their product. I was not aware of the problem when I bought the keyboard, but after your warning video, I checked and found the display to be compromised.

The 425 is my choice for home use as well as on stage in a small group.

Hey Jeremy! Your channel is the best! I recently got a PSR EW425 based on your reviews and I have afriend looking to purchase a new keyboard. I was telling him about this model, because he wants to be able to split the voices - like a bass sound on the left side another patch on the right side. However, he wants weighted keys. Which models under $1000 if any have these features?

Jeremy thank you for great reviews. I am so happy with my DGX 670 course. So, can I take the Psr ew 473course for my new psr ew425?

Hey Jeremy! Thanks for the comparative analysis. Meanwhile am asking to know if there is a way i can detect original vs fake yamaha psr e473. Or if there is no fake versions of psr e473

Another excellent and helpful comparison. However, even after listening to this video with headphones, I am hard pressed to hear much of a difference in the sounds. Clearly your younger ears are better than my old ones. LOL

It would be nice to know which organ-sounds are from the YC. (the 425 has got several organ-sounds from the YC-Keyboards). I've got the EW425. It's a great instrument for the price. If you're not satisfied with a preset-sound, you can change the settings like Cutoff, Attack, Release, Reverb,Chorus,Resonanz or use a DSP-effect as well - or layer it with another sound. Tip: Connect it with a subwoofer. E.g. Yamaha KS-SW100 at mono-output. The PSR-EW425 has not a special EQ-setting for this subwoofer - like the SX-familiy - but it's an upgrade (sounds awesome)

HI Jeremy. After watching a number of your keyboard videos I have decided to purchase the Yamaha E473 keyboard. I will be playing gospel music. Please recommend an Amplifier and microphone set up to go with it. I really appreciate your very knowledgeable videos. Thank you very much for all the information you share.

Dear Jeremy. QUESTION: How good is the PSR-EW425/E473 as a midi controller?. I heared the casio CT-S500 can be configured; the knobs (maybe even buttons) to send CC messages. I will confirm all by downloading the manuals later, but maybe you can share some knowledge to all of us (regarding this point). THANKS for all your content. That casio is really an interesting choice; maybe a superior key action and it's so portable.

Thanksssss❤❤❤😊

I will definitely go for ew425

*Thank you your bright lecture! where is made both products?*

Hi Jeremy, could you kindly tell me, why does the Ew425 have such a 'resonant' and reverb-y sound effect on grand piano? I am interested in definitely using it for piano but can't stand this looongg reverb on this piano...all the notes blend together in an annoying hum and echo, almost like a harmonica instead of being clear. Is this fixable in the settings? Have you noticed this? TIA

Good video sir. Can you suggest me which is better Yamaha psr e473 or Casio ctx 9000

Which one do you think is better, one of these or the Korg ek50?

Hey jerem ! Thanks for all your vidéos !! I am playing in cocktails and piano bar , wich modèl would you recommand for this ???? I mean , what’s the game changer for you ??? Thanks !!!

Hi Jeremy, great channel and videos, subscribed. Since it's 2022 now, is there any way to connect these keyboards to Bluetooth headphones/earphones without the lag/latency? I've been meaning to buy but don't know which, so I can pair it with my Sennheiser Momentum True wireless 2 to save some cash. Hope you reply please. Thank you.

Hi thank you for the informative video. I wanted an affordable piano centric keyboard and EW425 seems better but I wanted to ask does this also come with the mic feature as PSR E473? Thank again for your hard work.

Hi lovely post thank u. Would u regard the acoustic piano and epiano samples on 424 as decent enough for small pub gigs? I am considering the 425 or Casio ct s500 for my small gigs. Regards Isaac

Ur are giving ❤️Great demonstrate of psr e473 ,I got very useful about this keyboard series I have same keyboard I need a help can please give demo of what's user present, how to save and use it🙏

This sounds awesome. Where can I get the midi backing tracks for this specific machine? Ones you can rely on to work proper for a part midi live show.

Good video. Which will be better? korg ek-50 vs yamaha psr-e473

Yamaha would be wise to put you on their payroll. You would be a powerful asset for them to sell more keyboards.

Thanks

Hi Jeremy, loved all your videos. they are packed with so much information. I desperately need your help. I have a 7 year old son beginner. Should I buy Yamaha PSR-E 373 or get a old Yamaha DGX-660 for $500 with pedal. Please help. The DGX deal is good I feel

Excelente video Jeremy me podrías ayudar Se que en poco tiempo sacarás la comparativa del Yamaha psr e473 vs Roland ex50 ......estoy por comprar cualquiera de estos 2....pero quiero saber cuál sería mejor compra Saludos desde México

Is there a "sustain" option in the function in EW425 or E473 if i don't wish to use a sustain pedal... ?

Today I ordered the EW425, so this review wasn't in time for me. Based on your other videos I made the right choice, I think. Although very thorough, I miss extensive information about the connectivity (can I plug in a guitar and record it?) and the use of the samples (do the keys respond or just the pads?). Anyway, thanks for the info you provided and maybe I can answer my own questions in a few days.

hey jeremy, love your videos! i actually want to know how to start recording a style in middle of a recording on yamaha psr e453, i mean to say that i have a keyboard and flute track recording, and for the style recording, i want a couple of starting beats without rhythm, and then turn on the beat in the middle of the recording. is it possible? or is there any alternate workaround for it?

Jeremy, Could u make a review video about the Casio ctk 6250 pls. Looking forward to it!

Question! I love your channel by the way! I was wondering, if Im looking for a keyboard with the features of the Casio ct cs 500, but the feel of a graded hammer action keyboard, what keyboard would you recommend? Im attempting not to spend over 800, if possible.

What is the width of the keys of the keyboards? The width of a octave of a piano is 6.5 inches or 16.4 cm. Some Yamaha's keyboards have a slightly smaller width of 15.9. I am wondering is the keys full size or the slightly smaller ones.

Hi Jeremy in Ew425 is it possible to make sampling with internal sounds/drum kit of keyboard Without giving any external inputs ?

Hey Jeremy, could u please review Roland Ex 50, which just launched.

Does anyone know if there are supply chain issues with these boards? I work in China and have been trying to buy a 473 since February but nobody has them. If they're freely available in SG (in the 'English' version) would the music shops there be able to send one up to China you think? Been looking forward to an upgrade for my older Casio for a while now.

Can you suggest some good midi keyboards? Is buying midi keyboards better or normal keyboard with midi option?? It would be better if you suggest w.r.t India.

Help me please and tell me what could be the problem my Casio Lk110 has because when I press some buttons,other buttons also produce sound yet they are un touched

Can I connect iPad to these E series 473 to an iPad to view larger information? I am old eyesight not that good . Thanks for all these valuable information in RU-vid

DGX-670 has an accompaniment mode called 'full keyboard' where you can play anywhere and the chords will be detected. does any of these keyboards have that?

Can we use yamaha psr sx 600 as midi controller???? In this case, if yes on board transpose, octave up down, pitch blend and modulation will work???

Jeremy could you make a comparison between the yamaha psr E473 vs yamaha psr SX600 to compare the quality of the sounds of the preset pianos? you make excellent comparisons

We need more contents on EW425

Hello Can you help me PLEASE 🙏 My question: How I can use loop function on Yamaha psr e 473 from tones and styles? It is said on manual that loop to pad possible from microphone, audio or USB. But I need make loop from keyboard itself from tones or styles. Please help me. Thank you

Hey Jeremy does it support Indian styles through flash drive???

Hi Jeremy, i just wondered if can show demo with the Vault Caesars MK2 88 key. I would highly appreciate you. I really like to buy this for giving classes and for my family. Could you please do this favour.

What if we connect either output R only or vice versa to amplifier, what could be the quality of sound?

For a beginner which keyboard should I buy if second hand available...

Hello Jérémy please can the super articulation on these keyboards be triggered using the pedal

I can't decide whether to buy the yamaha psr ew425 or the Medeli akx10. Can I have your advise?

Hi Jeremy I like to know witch of them can play Yamaha USB styles. Thanks

Hi Jeremy planning to buy PSR EW425,. I also want to know how to download more style like movie songs and what sites i can go to get the styles

I would like to see a comparison between Roland E09 and Korg EK-50 Limitless.

Roland rd 88 or Yamaha p515 ?

Imagine the PSR-EW425 having a piano-focused twin model called DGX-270 with box shaped, semi weighted keys and the live control knobs removed, but shares the exact same sounds and style (except the ethnics, as Yamaha digital pianos always lacked ethnic/world sounds)

Muchos teclados hermano regalame uno quiero iniciar en la música 🎶

Hi brother, i really need a suggestion what should i buy Yamaha psr e473 or ctx 3000 i am redy to buy psr 473 but I just saw ur 1yr old video I ctx really better than psr 473 ?? Or psr 473 is more nice?

So it begs the question ..can you load the 425 sounds on the E473?

I actually didn't know about the differences you mentioned and thought the keyboards were identical, except for the size. Out of curiosity, I even looked at the DGX-670 to see if it would have been worth it to upgrade to that one. Considering the differences you mentioned, I momentarily would have been tempted to go for the 76 key version. But the price difference and batteries would have been price prohibitive on my budget. I bought the PSR-E473 for the microphone and sound. I'm happy with it. It would have been for home use anyway. Thanks for making the distinction. It definitely gives one the information they need to decide if the differences are worth the extra money.

For beginner what you suggest @jeremy see Psr e473 or ew425...

Jeremy hello. First I am so thankful I found your channel you always give great learning advice and reviews… I just purchased the PSR 425. But unlike my previous keyboard, that had a sustain button, this does not. Do I need to buy a sustain pedal? I really need that function. I hope you got my message. Thank you in advance.

To everyone who are planning to buy EW 425 or E 473....I had purchased the keyboard a week back. I was using E 453 before. My advice to everyone....don't buy this keyboard. Really disappointed with the quality of the same. Reasons 1) The first tone...Live Concert grand piano which is the primary piano tone is horrible...it is very thin as a sample and you can't edit it as the problem lies with the sample itself.....the second tone which is Live Grand Piano is way better..it is pretty fuller and acceptable. 2) The speakers are very poor and less louder ...you need to keep the volume at 85 to 90 percent ....the voice coming out is pretty average. Now they have given a button call MEGABOOST which can increase the volume which increase all the frequencies...it has level 1 and level 2....once you go to level 2...the voice distort.....this is so stupid...why will you do that....instead the speakers auto should automatically be powerful and stable enough to do that specifically for EW 425 which is said to have stronger speakers. 3) The build quality of the keys and off on button is the worst...cannot believe it.....yamaha is degrading the quality of the keyboard...it looks like 4) Lot of voices present in the keyboard are too thin and these cannot be edited or usable....specifically the Live Concert Grand piano This is the most genuine feedback you will find on any website.....these youtube reviewers won't tell all these flaws since they are paid by Yamaha...it looks like......my E453 was way better overall

3:12 the default concert grand sound

Hi all. I am beginning to learn piano keyboard. Can anyone recommend to me whether I should go for EW425 or E473? It is pertinent to mention that I am starting from scratch and I am not learning for commercial purposes (just a hobby). Your kind help regarding this will be admiringly appreciated.

Ew425 its very natural for the grand piano sound

I am impressive to ur demo ,Can u please give a do of what's user preset ans how save it to USB and use it
