Yamaha PSRE-473 is an ideal first keyboard in many ways, but also a robust alternative for more experienced players who are seeking advanced features as they perform or compose their own music," said Mark Anderson, director of marketing, Keyboard Division, Yamaha Corporation of America.

"This portable keyboard, with its wide-ranging capabilities, represents a great value as it will grow with players as they build their abilities and confidence."

The PSR-E473 enables players to jam along with their favourite songs stored on devices, such as MP3 players, via its AUX line input and advanced vocal/melody suppressor that lowers the volume of vocals and melody lines of the original recordings. Players are able to filter and adjust sound like they would on an analog synthesizer to create dramatic sweeping effects, using the model's cross-fader, pattern retrigger functions and two real-time control knobs. 

More than 750 high quality Voices-ranging from acoustic to electric instruments, to cool synthesizer arpeggiators-provide an exceptional tool set for the creation of professional-sounding music from this compact portable keyboard. For learning or performance purposes, players can simply press the Portable Grand button to switch off all other effects to enjoy a stunningly rich and authentic piano tone.
