This is exactly what people need to make, videos of the sounds the board makes because this is what people look for when wanting to know about the board.
Thank you CVM! My thoughts exactly, I've always tried to make these reviews for people choosing a keyboard. That's also why I keep the tunes very very simple - so people can really hear the timbre of the individual tones. Thanks so much for 'getting it' !
It's one of the best keyboards to buy I love it it has the best grand piano sounds and guitar sounds , all 385 voices and 100 styles are awesome, I even use this keyboard for composing music in fl studio
Have the same keyboard but it's PSR E244. Bought mine in Fukouka, Japan 5 years ago and it's all in Japanese. Watched your video and given me guides on how and what to do. Thanks!
A couple of weeks ago I bought a used PSR E253(as a collection). What made me felt disappointed about the PSR E253 compared to its predecessor PSR E243. The PSR E243 model has USB host, but the successor PSR E253 has none. It doesn't make sense at all 😂. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think PSR E243 was the last PSR E series that has Tempo setting feature .
You're local music store would be able to sort out a package deal for you, I'm sure. Personally I'd just buy one second hand, grab some basic headphones from a department store which will replace them if there are any problems, and just use TH-cam for learning the songs/styles you desire :)
You can use headphones in this and it comes with a builtin trainer to give you those lessons... until your ready to buy some books or download some lesson sheets.
Hi Keith, nice little keyboard. Personally, I would advise any beginner to go for the PSR E343 though, because it is touch sensitive and it has 9 registration memory slot, as well as an aux in for a MP3 player. Nice set of sounds on the E243. Granted, the Grand Piano is a disaster, but there are some decent sounds such as the electrical pianos, the clavi, the organs are esp. good for an entry- level keyboard. A lot of looping on the string sounds, but well... And that baritone Sax really sucks... 😱 On the other hand, the more recent PSR E360, which is supposedly meant to replace the PSR E2xx series, is a disaster. It does have the sensitive keys but it lost the USB connectivity in the process, which is a shame since Yamaha USB-enabled beginner keyboards are usually class-compliant, which means quite a lot of fun with iPad apps, etc. Regards.
Gearfacts Oops 😬 sorry Glynn. I tend not to sleep enough these days because of personal stress and very high night temperatures so my brain is overheating I guess.
Madame,may i know one thing please... Do this keyboard have the dual and touch function.. Actual those touch, dual, split functions are showing on the screen.. But I can't find out any of these stuffs on the functions.. Could you please figure out all my confusions...😊
@@gearfacts That's why we need you! There are no tutorials on youtube so you'll get views and there's big demand! I'm 100% totally new so dont know how to use it
Haven't got a 3000 anymore sorry. It's one of the few instruments I literally gave up on. I really wanted to love it because it sounded so good but beyond live performance (which I am not good at) its features are just un-usable for me :(
@@imade7075 I think so Haha glad someone was interested in this thing too... Far as I know if in FUNCTIONS there is no option as the "velocity keys" We cant do anything bro :/
I bought this around 10 years ago and i still play it to this day.

The PSR E244,
Have great tones right?
Do you use it in gigs?
Really great voice
Very thankful Yamaha
Thanks to you
Very helpful. Thank you
Happy New Year G!
You too, sorry about the late reply :)
Am about to pull my hair out, how to I use the split feature on the board
Hmm I can't remember, but the manual is still available online, you just search "Yamaha PSR-E243 PDF" and a link will appear

Yes I've struggled to understand exactly how Yamaha's model numbering works...
can this keyboard recording or use to midi controller with digital music workstation? im sorry i am so beginner about keyboard, thanks
Yes, it can work as a controller through USB
معي هذا الجهاز واستفت منه نوعا ما لكن كيف لي ان اضف اليه اصوات وايقاعات ؟
اشكر من يعرفني بهذه الطريقه
أعتقد أن توصيله بجهاز كمبيوتر هو السبيل الوحيد
Bro how to play karoke on psr243
Bhiya ye kiprad ka USB fhamsam banana
Is there a little newer model that comes with headphones and some lessons?

Good informative practical demo,

I'd like him to review the Yamaha psre363
All valid points. (and who's Keith?? haha - It' Glynn)

Why the grand piano is disaster?
That’s not all that bad just seen one for £30 it’s worth considering just for messing about with 👍👍👍👍
Actually it’s £40 just ordered it didn’t know it interacts ipad cool
Yeah the ipad thing opens up a lot of possibilities :) #gearfacts
How to turn on sustain
It's in the FUNCTION menu
Have the same keyboard. I wanted to know how to turn on reverb on this keyboard . Could you please tell me😊
Keep pressing FUNCTION until you see REVERB appear on the screen. You should be able to increase its value.
please make tutorials about casio ctx 3000 the puzzle
Oh it's sooo hard to operate...
@@gearfacts That's why we need you! There are no tutorials on youtube so you'll get views and there's big demand!
I'm 100% totally new so dont know how to use it
Interestingly I think Keith is being ironical here... 😂😂😂
@@HubertEtAlice he's not
Haven't got a 3000 anymore sorry. It's one of the few instruments I literally gave up on. I really wanted to love it because it sounded so good but beyond live performance (which I am not good at) its features are just un-usable for me :(
How to create bank
Try the function button, press repeatedly
i still use this but still ick me how i cant import midi files into the keyboard haha
wheres the "touch"?
This one doesn't have touch response, the PSR-E3 series has touch response.
Bro how can I activate the "Touch" function if I dont have the velocity sensativity in my PSR E243
The PSR-E243 has fixed velocity keys so there's not really anything you can do :/ #gearfacts
Thank u anyway bro :)
#gearfacts
@@Duck-fq9hl So that mean you can't enable/find the Touch?
@@imade7075 I think so
Haha glad someone was interested in this thing too...
Far as I know if in FUNCTIONS there is no option as the "velocity keys"
We cant do anything bro :/
Are the keys touch sensitive?
Yes, 61 touch-sensitive key portable keyboard with almost 400 sounds, 100 accompaniment styles and 102 songs.
@@gearfacts Is it touch sensitive? Then how to turn it on😢
How do i turn it on😭😭@@gearfacts
I dont really like it the first time of using it since the keyboard doesn't have a touch setting
Yes, that’s a fair comment.
