A Portable Grand with both Educational and Advanced Features!

Yamaha's YPG-235 adds to their popular Portable Grand Series - and it's packed with a host of great features, especially given its modest price. There's a 6-track sequencer onboard for immediate song-building, as well as a music database of 267 setups, listed by song title to get your creativity flowing - plus it uses Flash ROM memory, so you can easily download more songs to your YPG-235. Its 76-key design gives you enough keys to express yourself, but helps keep it light enough to carry anywhere your music takes you. Plus, it has a USB connection so you can easily use the Yamaha YPG-235 with your computer.

Plenty of great features for songwriting
You'll enjoy the YPG-235's onboard 6-track sequencer - great for capturing moments of inspiration, and building onto them right away. The YPG-235's Easy Song Arranger feature actually allows you to remix MIDI files so you can play them your own way, while the the YPG has 489 quality XGlite/GM voices for even more expressive playing. You can use layer and split modes to further enhance your sound - playing bass notes with your left hand, and controlling a string section with your right! Once you've gotten the parts sequenced perfectly, you can easily save the song to your computer via USB - or just pop in a portable USB thumb drive, and you can take your project with you in your pocket!

Educational tools right onboard
This YPG-235 features the Yamaha Education Suite, which gives you interactive lessons to develop your piano skills and even monitors your progress. It has 30 internal songs, with 70 more on CD, so you can play along with more challenging pieces, while practicing your playing "in time."

Excellent Keyboard

by Indiana Music Man from South Whitley, In

Music Background: Hobbyist. 10 year classically trained pianist and a learning guitar player. I play at home, church, and in a band.
This is a fantastic keyboard. Excellent quality and value for a keyboard in this price range.

The Grand Piano voice sounds just like my upright piano. This keyboard has so many voices a... read more [+]nd many of them sound exactly like their real counterparts. Keyboards, strings, synths, horns, drums, etc. The guitar voices aren't so real, though. I like to combine voices with the Dual feature.

Yes, it only has 76 keys, but I hardly miss the extra 12 that a full piano has. It's easy to get used to the semi-weighted keys.

I take the YPG-235 to church and other venues to play on. And because I'm too cheap to buy a case for it I bang it around a bit. It holds up well. Scratches don't show up much on it.

I live just a few miles away from Sweetwater Headquarters in Fort Wayne, In. So I picked it up at Sweetwater HQ. They were very friendly and had the keyboard down from their massive warehouse in 5 minutes.

Their HQ is so roomy and their toilets are eco-friendly. There were lots of instruments on hand. They even had free pop and coffee for patrons.

I bought a stand and a pedal with it and found candy in the sweetwater bag. Nice touch.

Bottom line: If you want a good keyboard and don't want to put a large hole in your wallet the Yamaha YPG-235 is a very good choice. close [-]

The Yamaha YPG 235 76-Key Portable Grand Piano Keyboard is
a great deal for the money!! This keyboard has one feature that is

the keyboard if you so desire to simulate the weighted action of a
piano. This keyboard also has a great sound, try the Grand Piano
setting and you won't believe you are playing a $300 keyboard.
It has many, many features that you would not consider in this
price range and it has that great Yamaha quality and value. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer knows all his products. I can call and ask him anything and he's on top of it. Some other places just want to sell you something, but I've found Sweetwater to be a helpful, professional company to work with.
