I am a guitarist who wanted a keyboard for recording some tracks. This keboard has been the center of hours of jams with me an the kids! Fun, and great for the home studio on a budget.

This keyboard is great, I just got it today and I am very happy. This is a great synth, keyboard, and piano. For the price this is a steal. I would recomend it for anyone who wants some synth effects, a pitch wheel, and a good keyboard.

NOTE: If you have not used synth effects before look at the manual because it will teach many good effects for the keyboard.

Also it is limited so get it now, you will not be sorry.

I bought this keyboard so I could have something easily transportable for practicing... the default piano sound is ok, but it really comes alive when you start messing around with the effects and filters--the dynamics are excellent. I can appreciate the accompaniment styles and six track recorder... this keyboard is an excellent value for the money! I don't think there is anything else at this price point that can do what the PSR E403 can do.

I've owned this keyboard for about 4 months. It continues to amaze me with its features, high quality build and the seemingly infinite number of voices it has. I use it primarily to augment my home recordings and it has filled that need and more (my instrument of choice is the bass). Only recently have I begun to use the midi function. It's function as a midi controller only enhances this keyboard's utility. I strongly recommend this instrument.

I own the yamaha PCR-E403. its worth the money. The features that it has are not on the proffesional level, but the style and tones are good enough to make a beginner great. If your a beginner then the yamaha PSR-E403 is the one to purchase.
