Realistic, Sensational Sounds

Get inspired with over 1,300 sounds -- like the Yamaha staple grand piano sounds, electric pianos, fantastic orchestral pads, huge synth sounds, a wide selection of world percussion, and fully customizable Organ Flutes. Super Articulation voices make acoustic instruments sound so real -- capturing nuances and articulations like note bends, trills, fall-offs, and staccato arpeggios during performance. For example, play a guitar sound and you'll hear authentic open and muted strings, slides, strums, and body noises. And Yamaha's Mega Voices lend realism to guitar-based Styles, reproducing the chord voicings used by guitarists. There are even distortion effects based on digital models of classic guitar amps and effects pedals from the '60s and '70s. The voices you hear sound real because they are real -- you're actually playing a sound that was sampled from a real instrument. The PSR-S770's dual 15-watt stereo speaker system amplifies these sounds beautifully, read more but you can also plug into to an amp or directly to the house PA via stereo 1/4-inch outputs.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Excellent product for the price; packed with something for everyone. I am performing keyboardist.pianist/singer and of course, Arranger. I cover,as close as possible, music from Classical, Standards,Oldies,Broadway, Rock, Orchestral(like Peter Cetera in concert).,Disco,jazz,etc. I study the music and arrange,program each one for all parameters, Beat,Style, Instrumental voices,fills,etc. I have 100s of songs,Custom Arranged, in the s770 memory. There are a few Cons--seems heavier than published,possibly due to a non-user friendly shape(grip-wise), and a seemingly impossible procedure ,for the 1st time user, to figure out how to make everything work, Instruction manual looks simple but its not ! Ive had a s710 and thanks to a Yamaha rep, learned some things that most Music Store Keyboard guys really didnt even know. But for the $, if you have the time and desire, its worth every penny,especially with 12 payment deals. I Endorse this Product with the previous considerations Mark C
