January 15, 2004
Set to deliver in June, Yamaha's 61-key PSR293 (MSRP $349.95) is designed for children or adults who are interested in learning at their own pace while having fun at the same time.
The PSR293 includes the built-in, upgraded Yamaha Education Suite (YES III) with exercises, interactive lessons and the innovative "Your Tempo" learning mode, which allows the user to learn songs by progressing at a suitable rate and repeat any difficult sections.
Expandability and computer connectivity is easy and affordable with onboard Flash ROM and a USB connection.
Other features include a 6-track sequencer for recording songs and performances, plus 487 XGlite/GM voices, including Yamaha's ultra realistic Portable Grand Piano function. The PSR293 comes with 135 built-in styles which will follow your playing like a built-in band. Choose from one of the 30 internal or 70 CD-ROM songs, or download songs from the Web.
The PSR293 is easy to carry, and can be battery operated with six "D" cells (not included) or connected to an optional power adaptor.
