Yamaha Launches PSR-EW425 & PSR-E-473 Keyboards

January 24, 2022

With the introduction of the new PSR-EW425 and PSR-E473, Yamaha has further evolved its already highly popular PSR series of portable keyboards. Both models expand on the success of the previous generation and now offer a wide variety of new features designed to bring even more power, selection, and playing enjoyment to every performance.

Aside from coming with a wide array of augmented effects and styles from around the world, the PSR-EW425 and PSR-E473 also feature pro-sound quality for the first time: a highlight that was previously only available in high-end models. Among the many new performance features found in both models are higher resolution instrument voices for authentic acoustic results and sound greater harmony. The PSR-EW425 and PSR-E473 are the only models in the PSR-E series to feature two channels for insertion effects. Equipped with the latest LSI tone generator, both deliver the kind of top-quality effects that were previously only known from high-end models.

Both the 76-key PSR-EW425 and the 61-key PSR-E473 come with touch- sensitive keyboards for the authentic response and tone. Players can also choose from a wide selection of 820 realistic Voices and international sounds for even more musical variety. The PSR-EW425 and PSR-E473 also come equipped with Super Articulation Lite. These Voices realistically simulate each instrument’s unique tone, resonance, and material characteristics for hyper-realistic tonal nuances.

The control panels and LCD of both models have been redesigned to offer players more clarity and comfort. Additionally, the Numeric Keyboard has been phased out and Direct Category Access Buttons added. By optimizing the control panel, players have quick and easy access to all Voices, Styles, and other functions for more convenience and expression while playing.

With the Mega Boost button, players can add an additional +6dB of powerful volume to their music and be clearly heard even without a PA system. Additionally, both PSR-E473 and PSR-EW425 come equipped with left and right audio outputs that allows players to easily connect to PA systems and studio equipment – separate from the headphones jack.

Performances are also given a boost with the Microphone Input & Vocal Effect feature which makes it possible to connect a microphone and sing along while playing. The built-in studio quality vocal effects give every performance its professional sound and dynamic impact. And with the innovative Quick Sampling and Motion Effect feature, players can intuitively express sounds that come to their minds for even greater spontaneous expression.

Both models are available in approx. March/April 2022 at all Yamaha dealers.
