First-time visitor to your channel but I must say I really like your approach Sir! As a Jazz player and Genos owner, I am interested in real-life applications of the features and clearly you take a musician's approach to discussing the keyboard features vs. discussing technology for technology-sake as it is often done by other reviewers. Well-done!
can I pay you to answer some of my questions regarding the sequencer and a better work flow. Is it possible? I don't understand why the accompanyment somes comes on without me initiating it? Thank you..
Nice to have all official Yamaha videos explained here ;) Now I'm just wondering what is the difference between SX700 and SX900. i've already noticed that there are no CHORD LOOPER buttons on the 700. Probably you'll make a video comparison in the next weeks ;) PS : subscribed again to your channel, you are the Yamaha reviewer reference here on RUclips :)
Dear Jeremy, I am in my early 60s and not very computer-savvy. I have owned a Yamaha PSR 3000 for the past 20 years, and the display light has been blown. I wanted to replace it, so I ordered the flagship Yamaha PSR SX 900. I am still within the 14-day return period, considering returning it as I find the keyboard too complex. No, I do not want to create my own styles or anything like that; I just want to find styles suitable for well-known songs from the 60s, 70s and 80s created by experts. For example, in PSR 3000, if I wanted to play "I Just Called to Say I Love You", I could look under 'Music Finder' and play the "Called to Say" beat, which would be ideal for that song. I need help finding such a song bank in SX900. Please advise me which new Yamaha keyboard would suit me best.
So Yamaha has done its homework and copied well everything it could from Korg: the touchscreen, joystick, chord looper, layout etc (it's better late than never) - even the naming convention is similar. Now if this is true, I can easily guess that their next model in series will be the Yamaha PA300. Oops sorry...I meant the Yamaha SX300, of course.
Well,I just looked. The keyboard is available for pre-order, but not for purchase yet. The pricing is a little bit higher than my S770 was for the equivalent keyboard, but looks like places like Sweetwater,Kraft, etc., will discount a bit. Also, three are 61 key boards, that will fit my present case. That's nice. I'm immediately saving my pennies.
Most new features could be implemented by software update, and most features also are already included in Korg mid range keyboards. I don't know why Yamaha doesn't include, for example, a full synthesizer or Sart2 sounds...
The demo unit is in my store today in the UK!! That's earlier than expected!! Maybe another few weeks before stock are available.... Not sure. In meantime, can get a go on it...
Will maybe do when I get it....going to hook it up with one of my ek50s I love these boards ... Great to set up 40 upper voice sets to use on the fly with any arranger ...and they have some excellent sampled voices for an entry board.... I think the pair will be great together .the ek works a lot like Yamaha which is a whole lot easier than Korgs PA OS .... Keith
They sure snuck that one up on me. I was expecting new boards at NAMM. They hadn't even been trying to tease us and build our anticipation. So, when is Yamaha going to do a grand release, or is this just going to be left to sneak up on us. Looks like this was released in Europe, and perhaps hasn't been released in the US yet. I think you've almost been caught flat footed too since it appears that you don't actually have access to one at this time. The layout looks a lot like the regular PSR S series. I'm going to miss the well lighted keyboard that my present Yammie has. I noted that it uses a full color screen, as the Genos does, and also seems to be a bit longer board. There are a million questions to ask, and I'm very excited, but would have really appreciated a reveal such as Peter Baartmans did with the Genos
Jeremy, I have a now ancient PA800 from Korg. I really would love to upgrade that to a PA4X 76, but honestly, I just can't afford it. I've been considering a PA1000, but now I see this, and while I recognize that this new Yamaha has stuff the Korgs have had for ages, it still piques my interest. Would it be possible for you, in a future video, once you get your hands on the PSR-SX 900, to do a comparison between the two. Not 'which is better', but which you like, and why. Thanks in advance.
Hi Jeremy, this is an interesting video because you synthesised the content of all the short videos Yamaha issued today about the PSR SX900/700 so now everything is much clearer. 😎👍 Feature-wise, these boards look great on paper at least (although much was copied from Korg I guess). Sound wise, I think I am hearing the same old samples again (even if they are good, I have got the feeling we’ve heard them too often). For instance, at 10’10’’ the sample is the same old Sax soprano which was already on the PSR E433! The grand piano is not bad but the Natural! piano sample of the DGX 650/660 sounds better IMHO. To sum it up, I have got the feeling that the ergonomics (chord looper, joystick, manual bass, touchscreen... you name it up) are brilliant, but that the sounds could have been revamped, esp. if Yamaha wants to compete against Korg on the mid-range arranger field. Of course, we will need longer demonstrations to decide which is best. The sweet spot might be the PSR SX600, it it ever comes out I am in (this might be the reason why the PSR S670 was not replaced yet, by the way - it would have been nonsense to issue a PSR S675 last year to replace it now with a PSR SX600). Looking forward to the next video. Regards.
Thanks for stopping by Vinciane. You are right! Quite a lot of the usual samples being rehashed over and over again. We need to let the dust settle and evaluate it more objectively. Yamaha Singapore has loads of unsold S975 and they will not sell me a SX900 until they clear their S975. 😭 From the pricing strategy of SX700, it is almost certain there will not be a replacement for S670 anytime soon.
Jeremy See Too bad... 😥😥😥 Well, the PSR EX400 will maybe come out next year... By the way, here in Europe, the PSR SX are already in pre-sale at Thomann’s 🙃
Thanks Jeremy. I just did a quick search for the chord tracker app. Unless I am mistaken, it is only available for Ios and not for Android. Casio does kind of the same thing. But I am really not going to buy an Ipod for Casio or Yamaha. In other words beats me why they don't realease their apps for Android.
Would really love a video detailing the price and feature difference between the SX900 and SX700. The price of the SX900 is certainly out of reach for me.
Does this keyboard have a "Full sequencer" like the Korg PA1000, and 2: SX 900 vs PA1000?? Thanks for the video buds, you've got yourself a subscriber! 😉👍👏
Hi, I have a yamaha PSRs 950, and would like to know if there's a foot pedal controller, that would let me switch chords (i.e. a progression, etc..) with my foot, so my hands are free to play guitar/ or trumpet etc..? thanks for any input. basically, a live backing track that allows me to switch chords with foot pedal.
Looks like Genos light, but is in fact a PSR S970 with more YEM memory, with Revodrums and this was it. You're wrong, chord detection on right side is also in PSR S970. Ok, the bar retrigger is nice feature.
S970 chord detects on right side with full keyboard detection. SX900 ignores the left side for chord detection so you can play an independent bass line.
I quote from standard manual page 59 "By changing the chord detection area from the left-hand section to the right-hand section, you can play a bass line with your left hand while using your right hand to control Style playback"
I've seen your used a (smartphone) earphone instead a Sennheiser professional headphones, but your small help which should l buy, KORG PA4X or Yamaha PSR SX900? Thanks in advance, John.
Hello Jeremy. your video explanation about SX900. is useful. At a certain point you speak of free play styles. I am looking for them in the listing of the styles, but they are not separate. Can you show me where to find those 6 freeplay styles or can you name these free styles? Do you know where I can download or buy additional free styles? Thanks in advance. Paul
Good news. However, I have been looking in the styles for the icon that fits the free style but I have not found it anywhere. Or should I look elsewhere in the SX900. I tapped "free style" in the viewfinder but nowhere is there a verbatim reference to free play style. Can you put me on my way to find the 6 free styles quickly? Thanks in advance. Paul

Not really the same, on full keyboard mode, the PSR-S will still use the left hand notes in detecting the chords. With M.Bass, the left part is totally ignored in the chord detection.
Hello Jeremy: I would like to know if the PSR-S975 series and earlier stylos are compatible with the new psr sx900 because I have more than 50,000 PSR series stylos. hehehe Thanks for answering.
Whoa, looks like some of the stuff like the touch screen interface's look and lit buttons came straight from the Genos! Does this have the MIDI recording, step record, and direct audio recording to USB? Those features of the Genos seem like they'd be useful, but that thing is $5,499! I say MIDI recording and not "user song recording" because I've seen videos of the Genos and it seems to give the user an actual MIDI file instead of a backup file that I can't extract my songs from. Recording to USB would be overall more convenient than finding something that connects to an output thing and recording from there, and step record…I have the PSR-E413 and in some ways I miss step record from my previous Casio CTK-671.
Hello Jeremy , Excellent video , very well explained too , Questions for you , are there any new Dance / Trance styles on the PSR SX , how much expansion memory does the PSR SX 700 have , and in your opinion is the PSR SX 700 good value for money and when can we expect it to be available in Europe !
OK , thank you Jeremy , always good to watch your videos and your always spot on with the fine details , thank you for replying to me , best of luck filming , I know how much work goes into making a video and editing it too ! , great to see your channel grow so big so quick ! , thank you !!! 😎AK☘ 👍👍👍👍👍👍🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻☘☘☘☘☘☘
Hello Jeremy, do you know if the sx900 also has the full drawbar-section as in the s975? I mean exactly the same, witch you can customize sooo good? Thanks in advance.
SX900 = true improvement, highly recommended, fresh sounds and certainly a cheap Genos ;) The MSRP price of 17m IDR (US$1200 approx.) is worth for the improvement. Some Indonesian online stores sells it even cheaper at approx. 15m IDR SX700 = meh, it's just a PSR-S975 under a SX chassis. As usual, Yamaha is at it again for stripping down too much on the lighter version. FYI, SX900 has 1300 sounds / 525 styles and SX700 has 989 sounds / 400 styles -_- If you don't mind, I recommend you to make "do not buy the PSR-SX700" and use this comment as one of the reasons
Yamaha mentioned a new keybed called FSB(?). I really hope it is a better keybed than in the PSR S975 or 970. They finally gave it a "right3", so now you can layer up to 3 voices on the right side like on the Genos. Why are there no more Audio-styles? Are Revo-styles better or just more tweacable? Hope you can give us these answers very soon, like youre reviews so far and subbed just now. Thank you for youre hard work !!
@@JeremySee , thank you. This, together with the new FSB-keybed makes me want to go from psr s975 to the new psr sx900. But only when the price is right : )
I’ve been trying to figure out for quite some time but have not got an answer till now. Why is there no ‘Ballad’ category? That’s specially the category I find myself using the most.
Okay thank you Jeremy. Am considering this one, was not sure whether this one had those beautiful Yamaha ballads (love song, organ ballad, 16bt to name a few). Also in my country, this is still not available so couldn't confirm it myself. Thanks for answering my query.
Действительно джойстик от Роданд)) аккорд секвенсор был уже на коргах ранее в частности па600 .ямахе б ещё рулежку звука и возможности секвенсора как в коргах сделать то цены бы не было а так норм.
How can I control the levels on the 975 or 900, using an external slider control like the Korg Kontrol 2. I don’t like the touchscreen for adjusting levels of Style and Voice volumes. Please be specific.
Hi J. Ordered mine ..but noticed some list prices changed in UK today with some dealers ..!! Had heard Yamaha were maybe increasing sometime soon what with the weak £ ... You heard anything?
This function right hand play arranger u can play even on yamaha psr950 this is same function called:full accomp...its not new function its old...even on tyros 1 from year 2001 u have this function in keyboard hahah
Many of us have no use for a76 key version.it wouldn't fit in our cars for transportation to and from gigs, play dates, etc., and for us older folk, would be too heavy for us to lug around in the first place. For me, this is the perfect size.
@@JeremySee Good, too far away up from Roland BK-9 or even E-A7. Hahaha. But, if some one bought it for me - well - sure I will be using it for my music ministry anyway - so cool. Got some tweaking ideas while watching some videos of this product. Thanks.
You know, I always appreciate your video's however, I always wonder why you have never reviewed the Casio WK-7600 and Casio XW P1 (sound performance workstation synth). Still for sale, in an under 500.00 range and still unmatched in there features and workstation abilities. As you know, the Yamaha DGX 660 displays music scores of current popular songs on its large screen which you can take out vocals of the artist or play the right or left hand or single finger cord play the record to a USB drive. I can only imagine that they are not for sale in Singapore so you do not know about them or you have discounted them because they have been around. Your reviewed instruments pale in comparison to what they offer and it makes me think you are just not aware of them because what you are saying makes no sense.
Yamaha would be NUTS not to send you one for review. Your reviews AND OPINIONS are greatly appreciated.
Very good demo of the main psrx900 main features! Thank you vert much.
Very cool video I like that chord looper feature on the sx900 looks very convienent

Great reporting! You're the man for new info on these keyboards.
I really miss Yamaha chord sequencer after using Roland and now Casio. The integration with Chord Tracker app is fantastic.
Which Casio? the MZ-X500 does the same on its 16 pads, one for each variation plus intro ending, you still have 10 pads to do even more!
So Yamaha has done its homework and copied well everything it could from Korg: the touchscreen, joystick, chord looper, layout etc (it's better late than never) - even the naming convention is similar.
Now if this is true, I can easily guess that their next model in series will be the Yamaha PA300. Oops sorry...I meant the Yamaha SX300, of course.

Light Genos 👍 I think it's better than Korg Pa4
On psr-s If you set up your arranger on full keyboard you can play manual baseline just like on the sx
Not really the same, on full keyboard mode, the PSR-S will still use the left hand notes in detecting the chords. With M.Bass, the left part is totally ignored in the chord detection.
@@JeremySee I tried it now. it doesn't change notes if i play with bass. I'll make a video for proof
What brand do you prefer between Korg and Yamaha overall?

I've just sold my PSR S770 and saving up for the SX900 next year.
This year, however, I might be getting a Korg B1 to replace my aging Privia
Korg will sending me a Korg B2 for review next week. Look for it.
@@JeremySee I hope B2 added a USB MIDI and more sounds. B1 already has great sounds but sadly lacks a MIDI connection
Is it possible to layer two sounds over the whole keyboard? How to do? I see only the split function on the display of the SX-900.
Yes up to 3 layers across the entire keyboard.
Many thanks for your very informative video.
Long story short: I call this keyboard Genos junior

you can download free audio styles from Yamaha and load onto PSR-SX900
It seems, audio styles was introduced only, to impress customers. They did this feature in a way, what is limited.
@@JeremySee You can download but I have doubt, that you can load more than 8 into the PSR SX
You will be able to load almost all the audio styles in the SX900 due to a much bigger audio styles memory.
@@JeremySee , thank you. This, together with the new FSB-keybed makes me want to go from psr s975 to the new psr sx900. But only when the price is right : )
Is there anything that the S975 has that the SX900 doesn’t have. In other words, did they REMOVE any features, capabilities of the S975? Thanks.
I think, possibly Audio Styles
But you can add ALL the audio styles as a download. There is a bigger memory now.
I’ve been trying to figure out for quite some time but have not got an answer till now. Why is there no ‘Ballad’ category? That’s specially the category I find myself using the most.
The styles previously found in Ballad has been distributed to the other categories.
Okay thank you Jeremy. Am considering this one, was not sure whether this one had those beautiful Yamaha ballads (love song, organ ballad, 16bt to name a few). Also in my country, this is still not available so couldn't confirm it myself. Thanks for answering my query.
Thanks for this video jeremy
❤❤❤
Sir dose it have an orintal voices (arab voices) and the quarter tune scale ?
It's working in same to same s 770 ????
Do any of the Tyros styles of SFF work on it?
Действительно джойстик от Роданд)) аккорд секвенсор был уже на коргах ранее в частности па600 .ямахе б ещё рулежку звука и возможности секвенсора как в коргах сделать то цены бы не было а так норм.
Good job Jeremy!
How can I control the levels on the 975 or 900, using an external slider control like the Korg Kontrol 2. I don’t like the touchscreen for adjusting levels of Style and Voice volumes. Please be specific.
i used a Korg Kontrol pad as well on Pa600 as PSR S750. Just use same chanels for nano global chanel and psr keyboard chanel.
Thanks!
Hi J. Ordered mine
..but noticed some list prices changed in UK today with some dealers
..!! Had heard Yamaha were maybe increasing sometime soon what with the weak £ ... You heard anything?
Yes, UK dealers are adding a price buffer due to the inevitable weakening £ from the impending Brexit. 😥
Was PSR SX300 released too?
Not this time.
Good video, I hope you can also post the factory demo songs! :)
Sadly they dont put cfx piano inside.
Wow.. Roland style joystick!
Disaster. Try to pitch up and modulate down at the same time.
Pitch is left/right, modulation is up/down. It's largely preference.
Price?
Love your vids keep it uo
What is the price in India ?
when will you demo a Sx900....?
Stay tuned! 😉
My sir recommended me to buy this keyboard . And my last keyboard was psr e 333

Nice Informative review...
This function right hand play arranger u can play even on yamaha psr950 this is same function called:full accomp...its not new function its old...even on tyros 1 from year 2001 u have this function in keyboard hahah
do a versus with PA1000
Thanks jeremy
Why no 76 key version.... 61 to small
Many of us have no use for a76 key version.it wouldn't fit in our cars for transportation to and from gigs, play dates, etc., and for us older folk, would be too heavy for us to lug around in the first place. For me, this is the perfect size.
What do the letters psr on yamaha keyboards mean?
No one knows officially.
Now we need a keytar
Indian tones workd? in this board
No
The Price, Jeremy?
Hello friend, expensive. 😂 USD$2,199
@@JeremySee Good, too far away up from Roland BK-9 or even E-A7. Hahaha. But, if some one bought it for me - well - sure I will be using it for my music ministry anyway - so cool. Got some tweaking ideas while watching some videos of this product. Thanks.

No after touch? This is annoying. Bite me Yamaha...
Precisely. A massive bummer, no after touch!!!
Fucking Roland like joystick :(
You know, I always appreciate your video's however, I always wonder why you have never reviewed the Casio WK-7600 and Casio XW P1 (sound performance workstation synth). Still for sale, in an under 500.00 range and still unmatched in there features and workstation abilities. As you know, the Yamaha DGX 660 displays music scores of current popular songs on its large screen which you can take out vocals of the artist or play the right or left hand or single finger cord play the record to a USB drive. I can only imagine that they are not for sale in Singapore so you do not know about them or you have discounted them because they have been around. Your reviewed instruments pale in comparison to what they offer and it makes me think you are just not aware of them because what you are saying makes no sense.
Thanks!
