I’ve noticed AudioPilz does too. Something in the German water…? 🤔 Not to mention Heinbach! I’m half-joking of course, I watch some people of other nationalities who are also strong improvisers. And you’re absolutely right that most demos really do not show off the capabilities in real tunes, just bash out the same chords for every voice.
Finally! A keyboard reviewer that actually knows how to play the instrument. Great job. I really feel that you gave a well developed overview of what this machine is capable of. If your other reviews are similar, you have a new subscriber. Sounding Excellent!
Consider that the recording is audio directly recorded from, probably, the headphone jack(?). Most people aren't aware of this and will assume this is ambient sound from the onboard speaker. If that were the case, you'd be hearing all the noise in the room or space the keyboard was filmed in (movements of the person playing the keyboard, dogs barking outside, etc.). This is not an intentional deception, it's simply the way audio for videos is actually recorded, i.e, the same way it's recorded for movie or TV production.
@@GaryR55 stil alot of features on it who sucks. No aftertouch , a litle small keyboard so for me its still a toy..... but i have plans to make it to a keytar hehe
it's not budget keyboards - it's just these little yamahas that have this fabulous sound. listen to any other small keyboard across different manufacturers and they sound like toys from '90. honestly I was instantly blown away by the sound quality first time I checked this F30. edit: in fact sound of these is often better than many of larger keyboards from many manufacturers also. just use your ears!
Finally someone who knows what he's doing, gives a great demo of the features and isn't just selling stuff. Most reviewers just do some demo stuff but clearly don't know to use all the functions.
Best $60usd I've ever spent. I use this with the A50, acoustic guitar and loop them all with a Roland 500 for a monster fun mini work station. It's a blast and everything runs on batteries. I can't thank YOU enough for producing these amazing videos. Keen On Keys is one awesome channel.
Hey, i am deciding between f30 and a50 for pure fun. I have zero knowledge, this will be my first keyboard. I just want to have some fun. Which one of these two would you recommend?
@@VTun1ngIf you just want to have fun or use for casual public music playing, f30 has more voices and styles. But A50 has some of the music modification functions and USB midi out, more suitable for music making. Find out more by referring to each keyboard's manual downloadable from Yamaha website. 37 keys isn't much and may not be enough for some songs. If possible, go for 49 for better musical expression. 61 keys version is even better and more flexible. It will cover most modern songs but not classical music pieces.
@@VTun1ngHi, did you get one yet? If you want a fun keyboard for all around music, the F30 will keep you entertained and learning. I still used mine when I need inspiration haha. It's basically an arranger stand alone music work station only mini. Good luck and Keep 'Em Jammin' 🎶
Thank you for the wonderful review. I have owned the F30 for several months now and I think it is one of the most amazing low cost keyboards on the market. I love it because I can carry it anywhere in my backpack and improvise any tune I can think of. I am also attracted to the A50 but I will have time to evaluate its purchase. See you soon.
I can't tell you how much I continue to enjoy your videos. I keep coming back and re-watching them over and over. They're very entertaining and enjoyable. Thank you!
Glad to see you and your mysteriously apt hands in the video feed again, Keen! =) Always a pleasure to hear your smooth dulcet tones, and your voice as well.
Wow it is so nice to see another great review from Keen on Keys. A fantastic musician with reviews that are totally professional. Loved your A50 review as well. Take care.
Excellent review. Thank you. I've been looking for a small keyboard, and after this nice review I am able to decide that this is just the kind of thing I'm looking for.
Having started my keyboard 🎹 journey with a PSS-400 which my father brought back from Hong Kong - to the PSR-SX900 I own today, I have to say that the quality of the styles and voices in this lower-end Yamaha keyboard are quite respectable. Thank you for another thorough review
@@KeenOnKeys I would say it really depends on the keyboard. I love how In-depth these videos are, I am still in awe of your Yamaha pss-480 video series. I probably going to get one before my first deployment.
Wiedermal faszinierend, wenn man so gut Spielen kann wie du, hört sich auch das "einfache" Werkzeug toll an, Respekt auch was dir so alles an Melodien einfällt !!!!!
It’s a fantastic little keyboard. I play it daily to relax. But there’s one sound I miss greatly, which would go so well with the world rhythms. That is the Steel Drum sound. I can’t believe it’s not there. I’m so used to having it available with all GM keyboards I’ve used.
Great review. I've got the PSS-F30, had over a year now, and play it every day. 3:22 the missing chip is the USB MIDI interface device, found in the PSS-A50. The PSS-F30, PSS-E30 Remie, and PSS-A50 are all the exact same hardware, with main difference been the firmware, and front panel printing.
This is the most useful review of this keyboard I’ve found. The main reason I might choose this over the A50 is for the live accompaniment function which I want.
When watching this video, it brings me back to my primary school days back in 2005 when me and my buddies, classmates would compose and sing during any school events or special days, and we do challenge other classes too. But the problem is non of us have access or own a proper electronic keyboard, İ only have a small Yamaha keyboard mainly build for kids like myself during those years back than to learn how to play keyboard that cost almost exactly like this one. I forgot the model of it, it only have voice and pre install melodies. No drums or accompaniment, seeing this new Yamaha keyboard like this one should have been made back than where it would cheap to buy....
It's always good news to see your videos in the feed. Always an amazing work. It's nice that there are new compact keyboards with newer voices but it's disappointing to see that their construction and design is inferior to the old ones. And I think three octaves is not enough.
Wow from most of the videos I’ve seen for this model. It is very impressive you know how to use all it’s functions in full glory, in this little grab n’ go keyboard. I have been convinced that this is all i need for as a beginner that do not know nothing in how to play. And just want to try and learn.
I was waiting for you to review this model, great review. I have this one and the A-50. Actually play this one more lately. I agree with you on the harmonium sounds, they are really good for an inexpensive keyboard. I notice they are sold out a lot of places in the US right now. I've seen this before, some sites say they are back ordered. I had to wait to get one months ago. In a perfect world there would be a little bitty pitch bend wheel on the left side on the next model. :)
Hi Keen on keys. I really like your videos. They go well into every functions on keyboards. I have to say, I am quite excited by Yamaha bringing back the PSS models. Who knows how far Yamaha will make this series grow. Usually Yamaha updates their models every 3 to 4 years so we might see another PSS keyboard soon.
I got an A50 and I was pretty good, but I believe the F30 is even more useful when it comes to improvise and play music anywhere. I'm definitely interested into one now!
@@Elazarko the A50 doesn't have any kind of baking track, songs of rythms, you can build some sort of simple style with arpeggios and the recording feature, but you can't play anything like with this keyboard
@@Elazarko Yes! I don't get why there isn't a higher tier model like A60 with both F30 and A50 features available but I guess that would such a small market to target.
Wow, that was a banger at the end. I definitely prefer this to the Casios, not that I need either of them. For one, I love that it still has recognisably “Yamaha” design sensibilities, such as the typography for the function keys, or pretty much the same interface/voice selection method as they did on the PSS-270! Second, the voices where they sampled what sounds like one of their FM engines are wonderfully-applied for their purpose. It’s not the most ambitious device, but I appreciate that they’ve played to their strengths.
This is just unbelievable how cheap you can buy such a cool instrument. I have a PSRE303 which is a 61 key Yamaha (from the family, bit used) from about 2005 and I just started to learn stuff on it and if anything happens to it I'll be buying one of these. Love the sounds which are really at the level or higher than the PSR (yeah, I know, decades apart) and that it can be used via USB and not a specific charger. And it's CHEAP! Thanks for the vid! Subbed! PS: why do they usually advertise it as "for kids"?
Got some brilliant designers at Yamaha. Once these functions/features are burned into a chip Yamaha can cut costs and put out different models with simular or better quality depending on hardware..anyways most important the sound comes out of it...which is great. Thanks for the excellent review
I was thinking of buying this thing on amazon, but was confused. but watching your video made me to go and place the order. and yes, awesome playing. ended up subscribing!
That pipe organ really does sound like a street organ. The ones that you still hear here mostly play covers of pop songs these days! Always funny to hear, until they're in front of where you're trying to work for a couple of hours.
I used and still use the PSS-F30 to record string among other things with bands and artist. And no one would know that I used this small keyboard or the onboard sounds. This is how good it is.
@@KeenOnKeys Love it! I may have to ask you for a full recording of that song if you have the time. This song screams of me piling all my cheesy 80s synths on it. 😁💖
@@AndersEngerJensen No problem. I will send it to you. But it's more like a medley, the style changes three times before it comes back to the initial theme.
I can't play the piano to save my life. I'm a drummer! I Yet I love watching your videos! I always look forward to you making these keyboards sing in the final performances.
I saw it last month being sold where I bought my Casio SA-47, and wondered how it might sound like ...I think it's cleaner sounding, and made me wonder whether PCM sampling is different from brand to brand. I've always loved Casio, but Yamaha always seems cleaner, and Reface already has a good rep. Saving money for one, thanks a lot for this take. First video of your, instant sub :-)
@@jesuzmario I remember discovering that there is unused functional MIDI IN and OUT points on the PSR-E253's circuitboard. With some drilling and soldering to a custom add-on PCB, you can add in the missing MIDI ports to be able to plug in to other MIDI equipment!
The USB midi chip is not soldered on the F30 You should be able to transplant the rom and midi chip from the A50 since it has the same motherboard But I don't think anyone has ever tried that
If you hold down the C#2, F2, and G#2 keys simultaneously and then Power ON, it goes into a test mode. Then it shows the firmware version, mine is "1.00", as well as various tests of all the functions and buttons. Which I presume Yamaha would use during manufacture, and for their service techs.
@@stoomkrachtGoogle for the PSR F50 service manual PDF download, that tells you what to do with a few exceptions. The PSS F30 basically is a PSR F50 or F51, with less keys
I'm certain Yamaha has discontinued it now. If they've got any new similar keyboards coming out, no idea. Although Yamaha UK still has it listed on their site at £75.
I was not aware that these used the same keybed as the Reface series. That's a good piece of info. I'm quite impressed with the action on my Reface CP. Yeah, it's still mini-keys but they're the best mini-keys I've ever used. P.S. That electric piano tone sounds way better than it has any right to. Through some chorus and reverb, that would probably sound awesome.
After watching so many years on demos, you are the first person who can play some music instead of pushing only chords. Thank you. Regards.
I’ve noticed AudioPilz does too. Something in the German water…? 🤔 Not to mention Heinbach!
I’m half-joking of course, I watch some people of other nationalities who are also strong improvisers. And you’re absolutely right that most demos really do not show off the capabilities in real tunes, just bash out the same chords for every voice.

If you can find one buy it. I had to look a little bit to find one. It is a ton of fun. Very surprising capability for such a small unit.
I really love your videos. You are ingenious in getting out the most possible features out of this tiny budget keyboards. Thanks!

Thanks for the great review. You have great playing skills.
I always love the little ditties you play to demo the patches
This is definitely the best review that Ive seen!!

It's possible to hack in MIDI IN+OUT ports via soldering to allow hidden MIDI reception/transmittion (same way goes for the PSR-F50).
really? have you tried that?
@@jesuzmario I remember discovering that there is unused functional MIDI IN and OUT points on the PSR-E253's circuitboard. With some drilling and soldering to a custom add-on PCB, you can add in the missing MIDI ports to be able to plug in to other MIDI equipment!

You should be able to transplant the rom and midi chip from the A50 since it has the same motherboard
