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!

MIDI songs so you can then learn them using the Education Suite!
