    Outstanding professional sound quality and styles at unprecedented price points mark out new Yamaha keyboards


    The PSR1500 is loaded with amazing voices. In fact, there are well over seven hundred sounds including beautiful grand pianos, rich acoustic instruments, sparkling synthesizers and a full set of Yamaha XG voices. You can rest assured that XG and General MIDI sequences will sound their best when played back on the PSR1500.Yamaha's highly-acclaimed and exclusive "Sweet", "Cool" and "Live" voices, previously only found on the award-winning TYROS, have been incorporated, resulting in instrument sounds of breathtaking realism.

     
     

    Simultaneous Style & Song Playback


    Imagine being able to play a MIDI file and a Style at the same time. This keyboard has separate controls for song and style playback. The style will automatically sync to the MIDI file. Maybe youd like to try one of your favorite songs with a different rhythm. If you are a writer, maybe youd like to try your song with many different styles to see what it sounds like. If the song has chord data in it (many XG files contain the chord data or you can input it using the keyboard or software programs like XGworks), the style will actually follow the chords in the MIDI file and play a complete instrumental background. Its unique and different and just one of the cool new features of this keyboard.

     

    Incredible Music Styles


    The PSR1500 contains a wealth of fully arranged music styles, including specially designed Pianist Styles, to backup your musical performance. Yamaha style makers around the world have been working very hard to create some wonderful new styles for this release of the PSR1500. Each style has 3 Intros, Main A/B/C/D variations, and 3 Endings, as well as four fill-in patterns for added musical expression. You can change the instrument part settings of any music style, or even create your own custom styles.

    Exceptional Sound


    Dynamic two-way stereo speakers effectively reproduce the PSR1500s high quality voices with rich, full-range sound. The keyboards built-in ports enhance lower frequencies.

    One Touch Setting


    The One Touch Setting (OTS) function automatically configures keyboard parameters, such as melody voice selection, tempo, and accompaniment volume, to optimally match each music style you select. This feature has been improved on the PSR1500. You can, if you like, have the OTS advance automatically with the 4 Main Sections of a style for ultimate hands-free operation.

     

    Great Organ sounds


    The PSR1500 features a dedicated organ flute function complete with graphic drawbars that can be individually modified, delivering classic jazz and rock organ sounds. These sounds can be further crafted thanks to the extensive programmable tremolo provided courtesy of the onboard digital signal processor.

    Large Full Dot LCD with Song Lyric Display & Score display


    Sing along with your favorite songs! The large LCD featured on these keyboards displays song lyric data from Karaoke disks in real-time for endless singing enjoyment. This unique display also makes keyboard operation easier and more convenient by displaying more information at once. On the PSR1500 you can display the notation for your own recordings as well as commercially available song data and have the notation automatically shown on the display - in whatever size or zoom level you want. You can choose the tracks you wish to display, or let the keyboard automatically select the tracks. The Score display will even show you the names of the notes, if you wish. This powerful feature not only lets you view the entire score, it shows where you are in the piece with the help of a moving cursor that follows along with playback.

The correct tempo, matching style and appropriate sound(s) for the melody are just waiting for you to start playing. Take your music to new heights by inputting your own Music Finder songs. You could put in your favorite music book so that all you have to do is select the song and the keyboard is ready to play. This is a great tool for professionals as well as home hobbyists.

    16-Track Sequencer & Lyric Editor


    Whether youre an enthusiastic beginner, a serious composer, or anything in-between, the PSR1500s 16-track sequencer has the power to release your musical talent. Arrange up to 16 different instrument parts to create your own fully orchestrated songs. A variety of recording modes and editing functions are available to suit your playing style. You can even see the notes displayed on the large LCD screen (scoring ability).

    Editing is easy and intuitive and offers cut, copy and paste features, just like a computer! Once you enter the Song Creator mode, youll notice that we have a new section that allows you to input lyric data into songs. Very cool. Once you enter the lyrics, they scroll by as the song plays back - you just have to follow the bouncing ball.

    Chord data from standard MIDI files can be imported into the style section for further editing, which is perfect for songwriters and arrangers.

    In addition to MIDI connections, the PSR1100 and 2100 feature a USB port enabling effortless computer connection, opening up a whole new world of educational and creative possibilities. Expand your musical possibilities by connecting the keyboard to external MIDI devices or even to a personal computer.
