i was just wondering if these two kinda of instruments can be compared.
i'm intending to get new keys, and i like yamaha. checked out their PSR-S500/S700, alright with them, but i really like MO6.
supposed to use these keys in gigs, but i'm not too sure which is more suitable.
advice, anyone?
depends on your application,, if you are into more music production, go for the Mo6.. more live performances.. Psr series..both are targeted for different audiences not really comparable to each other..
PSR are marketed as a fun/family keyboard. Is has all the auto accompaniment and stuff.
Synthesizers allows editing of the sound. You can tweak the sound to make it different from other people's.
Nowadays, due to advance technology, most keyboard sound pretty good out of the box. You should go down to the showroom and try out the instrument. Check out the different sound and compare which you like better.
i understand that PSRs and synthesizers are meant for different purposes. hmm, but would the PSR be suitable for gigs? i have a PSR at home, and its more like the budget type, so i was wondering if PSR-S500 is good enough already. i mean. i've tried it out, but it is really appropriate for gigs, since you mentioned its a fun/family kind of keyboard.
If you're willing to fork out the money for a new S500 and know that you'd be satisfied with its performance, why not consider a mid-range arranger workstation like S700 or its predecessor PSR1500 or even a PA50?...And then, when you do have the spare cash in future to upgrade, go for an 88 key keyboard as an expansion, not replacement, to your setup. Go try them out
actually i'd prefer S900, but i dont have enough cash. even for s700, its 500 bucks more. i was also looking at korg's PA50, but i havent tried them out yet.
haha.
portable keyboards vs synthesizers
