If you are on a budget or just starting out, forget those more expensive models. So it makes no sense to but a Tyros 3 or Yamaha MOTIF if you are not skilled enough to play it well. Their skill blew my ears off! But when I was just starting out on keyboards, no matter how hard I tried I just couldn't make a top of the line keyboard sound good.

I've seen professional players make cheap entry level keyboards sound like they were worth many times their price. It has a lot to do with your level of playing. But a player must always be mindful of the fact that it is not only about the keyboard. Sure this keyboard is a cheaper keyboard. I compared this keyboard to others in the same price range and this Yamaha keyboard was unmatched. The Yamaha PSRE413 sells for about $229.95 and I'd say this is value for money. I particularly liked the percussion instruments and horns.

I find that instead of the cheap earphones it comes with, a USB chord would have been better. The keyboard comes with a number of great features like the Yamaha Education Suite and USB/MIDI connection. It's great for practicing and for familiarizing oneself with an entry-level arppegiator, real time filter and effects controls. Having said this, the Yamaha PSRE 413 keyboard itself is an outstanding entry level keyboard. Highly Recommended : Go here for the BEST piano/keyboard course I’ve seen on the Internet.

Unless you've got lots of money to throw away, this is a must because the 4 AAA batteries it comes with will obviously go weak soon and you would have to change them frequently. You have to buy a separate adaptor (part of the survival kit). It's the fact that unlike previous portables, the keyboard doesn't include an adaptor. I have many nice things to say about this keyboard but let's start with one of my disappointments. Here's my review of the Yamaha PSRE413 61 key digital keyboard in case you're thinking of buying it.
