Can you live the E363 keyboard my idol
can you please tell the difference between yamaha psr e273 vs e373
As of 2024 a better comparison might be between the Casio CT-S1 and the Casio CT-400. These are instruments with different purposes but with similar, if not identical, keyboard action and tone. One thing I think is chronic with the online reviews, assessments and comparisons of digital keyboards is that those who make these videos do not quite pay enough attention to keyboard action and tone. It makes sense that none of you would. You're all so good as pianists and keyboardists that you can make any instrument with black and white keys sing and dance at your command. For the rest of us, these details are what is most important. Especially, it is important for us, or for parents who are looking for a starter instrument for their children, not to make a buying decision based on extraneous considerations. My experience might be quite instructive.
I am over 70, but my position in the situation is that intermediate beginner. I also have some writing ability and knowledge of chord progression thanks to a little guitar background. Between these two things I have some songwriting ability which I am in fact exercising using the keyboard. I have an 88-key graded keyboard which I bought a couple of months ago. More recently, I had in my possession a Casio CT-S200 and a Yamaha PSR-E263. I found both of these instruments inadequate for specific reasons. The Casio CT-S200 had a nice keyboard action but, I thought, poor tone. The Yamaha had nice tone but a not-very-good action. I sold both of them in a lot and I just ordered a Casio CT-S1, which I think has both a nice action and good sound to go along with its superior portability.
The industry is selling these low cost 61-key keyboards as beginner instrument. Except for the Casio CT-S1 or other Casio models with the AiX sound engine, they are not beginner instruments. Most of them have a keyboard action which will not prepare anyone for playing an acoustic piano or even a digital keyboard with a superior action. The only brand with an adequate action is Casio, in my opinion. The other instruments, all of them, are suitable only for people with at least some musical experience be it vocal, guitar, some other instrument or at least some past keyboard development.
What I am saying here is that only the Casio CT-S1 and the CT-S400 and higher models have both the tone and the keyboard action to be a good beginner instrument for someone with no musical experience of any description. But there is a caveat. They might good instruments for an adult beginner but they are not, in my admittedly limited opinion, good instruments for a child or teen beginner, for the simple reason that their tone is too mature.
What I am doing here is frankly trying to influence the influencers. The industry needs to be called out for marketing these instruments as beginner instruments for the youth market. What youthful beginners need is a good keyboard action and a type of tone which appeals to them. The industry should get together and make a good youth design. The Casio CT-S1 would be pretty good if it had an outright youth mode among its selections. The Yamahas have pretty good tone but the action is not piano-like at all. The arranger features of the Yamaha might be useful to people with some level of musical experience but having 33 buttons to push on top of the keyboards is too much distraction for a kid with no musical experience. Say something.
Honestly love the simplicity of the Casio
Yeah, I'm looking at which one to rent for a month. I don't need 600 sounds. I'll probably stick with one or up to three max - lol
You are so awesome! You have helped me to decide and get my hands on a CT-S1. I just subscribed and am excited to listen to you talk about keyboards! Thank you for your work. Cheers!
Looking at one of these for my mom, I was so happy to find this review! I literally thought I wish this guy would do reviews for everything I'm interested in (especially photo EQ) haha.
Your explanation is so clear n precise. Very helpful. Thank you!
after your several vids. I decided to get PSR E-373 as a beginner's one.
With music it will be much easier for me to live under the air raid alerts.
Thank god your channel exists.
Your way of speaking used to be quite robotic and forced but it's much better now and it's great to see. Good video as usual. Quick, detailed and straight to the point.
Just bought the Yamaha PSR E373, looking forward to practice with it a lot and use it as some kind of rest from my hard studies, thank you very much for your help.
Have fun!
Got the RED CT S1, never been happier!
Lucky chap!
I'm really interested in this CT-S1. Please make more about it. Thank you a lot.
It's over a year after this video was made, and I have some reflective perspectives.
Yamaha and Casio have come out with late, improved, albeit more expensive versions of ther respective series of arranger keyboards, and both now have pitch bend wheels, and ¼" audio outs, and headphones outs if you need it for more professional sound reinforcement amplification applications without various adapters...
But this CT-S1 is still current for what is is, and became to have such viral popularity for It's sounds and playability in a compact and portable keyboard.
Because of the sounds, variations and velocity effects, plus nice keyboard playability and key textures, as well as the price, I am seriously considering getting this instead of the newer CT-S500/CT-S1000V for what I need at this time, as my other present keyboards and equipment/devices, and a few I plan to get will suit my playing needs and other functions. But the Yamaha Reface CP is also another for the reasons I mentioned previously. This is still a simple, compact portable auditory therapy device for those musically proficient and fluent to just sit a play for enjoyment and relaxation.
Still such a sweet keyboard fir the price, and my number one recommendedaction for a beginner that is not seriously training traditionally with an acoustic grand piano, but still is an option for home practice, if space, portability and budget does not allow you to have a full weighted 88 key instrument at that time.
I was looking for a keyboard for my student and i knew its always was yamaha and thanks for that amazing research you are doing it helped me make the right decision thanks a lot 👍🏼
Thank you so much, those vids are very useful for me, good content, I'm starting learning English but it doesn't so hard to understand what you are trying to say, keep up the good work! ✌🏻
I love the simplicity of CTS1. I hope someday i own this keyboard. Regards from Philippines Jeremy.
Bought an ES373 a month ago as a beginner and am very happy with it.
Great choice!
I think that a fair comparison must be with the CT-S400. Independent of the people demands, we must to clear this things and keep the good sense in terms of compare oranges with oranges. I would like to know if the new samples on CT-S1 are better quality in comparison with similar segment products. Thanks Jeremy.
Yup that comparison coming up
My man listened to the polls❤️
Hey man. Is the CT-S1 not available in India?
@@pranavgautam96 yes ur right. As I know, I couldn't find in India.
No it’s available in offline only
yes they do in India🇮🇳
it 17thousand rupees
I bought the Casio (gigs, practicing, portability, sounds, etc.) I don't have it yet but does it have audio USB built in through the cable like the Yamaha ?
Hello :) Which of these two has better sounding built-in acoustics? I had a PSR-E363 and quite liked the sound, although there was little bass. I also had a Casio CT-S300 and the sound was terrible. Very resonant and not pleasant. Thank You.
Yamaha has to go back to the designing room and the price value room. All Yamaha products are OVERPRICED! Casio seems to be changing with sound quality with polyphony increased. Casio is bring colors and the best bang for the buck. Go Casio you seem to be taking the right changes with quality, colors and price. Yamaha black on black is boring, depressing and same o same o.
Sir Jeremy i was wondering of which one is better for a beginner student?
I bought CT-S1 almost one month. Really love❤️ it!
Good choice!
Great comparison 👍
CT-S1 Fender Rhodes called "Stage E PIano" is a major improvement.
Hey can you tell me if you're using a seperate sustain pedal? Or does the e373 comes with an inbuilt feature that lets you have a sustain without a pedal?
Hello Jeremy, I have a Yamaha psr e363, I only play grand piano. Is a good idea to change for a Casio ct1 or the diference is minimum ?
hi. thanks for review. can you give me some reasons why i buy e373 over roland go keys? i am not decided yet.
Thanks 😊So, your opinion is that piano sound of Casio is better then piano sound of this Yamaha ? (I need only good piano sound)
thanks for this video. i was wondering about which keyboard to get as a portable, as i use a casio cdp-s350 as my home piano, while it is not perfect it is definitely a great keyboard for the price paid for it. i am torn between the casio and the korg go: 61, i've seen different accounts of which is better and which sounds better. what do you guys think? the go keys or the casiotone? and how much does it really matter with vsts and such? thanks
Nice informative video. But as someone who has yat to purchase any keyboard, I was really looking forward to hearing the audio differences. Learned a lot 'tho...
Has influido en mi decisión final muchas gracias, al final me iré por el Casio :D
Is the Wireless MIDI adapter for the Casio good for live performance, like is there latency or is there a significant delay? I’m trying to connect to Garage Band on an iPad 8. I was able to connect the CT-S1 to an iPad Pro but there is no headphone Jack and every dongle I try can’t connect both headphone AND the cable.
Is there a way to compare the E373 (new) with a roland go piano 61(used like new)? If both are at the same price
I'll buy a Casio CT-S1. Very nice electric pianos.
I’m just looking for a keyboard that sounds like a piano with not a lot of frills. Any recommendations. Thanks for the video.
Great video. Thank you!!
7:37 Mr. See can I ask a question? I was wondering if both of these two keyboards has the same loudness when cranked all the way up, so I wonder which one is louder?
as a person who has played both keyboards on full volume, for me the casio ct s1 is a tiny bit quieter than the other one. but it could be just my hearing tho, i barely notice any difference!
Ma you’re doing god’s work with these videos!
I just love Yamaha. I've had many. Use the rhythms (without bass) ALL of the time.
You mentioned you prefer the action of the Yamaha even though the CTS-1 action felt semi-weighted; can you elaborate on why you prefer the action on the Yamaha?
Is there any difference about the touch feels between the 2 of them?
Please which is better Yamaha PSR-E273 or Casio CT-S1?
Thank you Jeremy. I onced had a Yamaha CP 76 keys I gave it to my son. Then I have bought a Beale AK280 cheap one. I enjoy more voices. I think advanced players won't buy any 61 keys. However, keyboard's demo songs are worth to listen as background music at my home.
Does the Casio have a built in audio interface, as well?
Hi Jeremy! Very nice and helpful video thanks a lot! But I have a question :)
I don't understand how I could connect the CTS1 to my laptop's DAW
Is it only possible with the wireless adapter?
You can use the Bluetooth adaptor or just a USB cable.
@@JeremySee 😃 thanks a lot
Great video, but I would like to see a comparison video between the PSR-E373 and the CT-S400, as they are both arranger keyboards, albeit, the CT-S400 is a nominal $30 more. The Casio has a more portable form factor than the Yamaha, like the CT-S1, but I wonder if it is comparable in features and sounds to the PSR-E373 with more panel buttons and controls.
I mentioned previously that I would not want to take the CT-S1 to a park or beach, the CT-S300 would be more suitable, but I feel the sane for the CT-S400, even though it cost more. To me, the CT-S1 just seems like a more premium keyboard. I decided to keep my Go:Keys for it's features, sounds and 128 note polyphony. Despite the cons it has, this would be mostly affecting live performance. It would serve to cover all the otger voices as a second keyboard to the CT-S1.
But the question is, how good is the CT-S400 if it does not have all the sounds the CT-S1 has, and the extra 16 note polyphony? I would consider getting the PSR-E373 instead, that still seems to be a bargain 64 note version of the DGX-670, as the CDP-S350 is a Casio 88 key alternative for slightly less. Decisions, decisions, but we are blessed with all the choices.
My Go:Keys with the CT-S1 and the PSR-E373 would make a great mix and variety, with my JD-Xi which has a vocoder, 4 track capability, 228 note polyphony, and unlimited effects parameters.
At the price, all the keyboards I mentioned will suit what I wanted. With the Reface CP and YC being small portable EP and organ options or alternatives fir premium sounds and effects.
And I still have to rave about the $450 Alesis you reviewed so well as as a much cheaper alternative to the Roland RD 88 that is almost a perfect instrument for a weighted 88 note keyboard.
great i'm changing psr e 360 with ps with psr e 373 what do you think?
You're the best Jeremy
Thanks for your work Jeremy. Having just purchased the CT-S1 (based upon your reviews), I just want to say that one should not underestimate the value of a screen! This model is presented as being no frills with an emphasis on piano sound quality. But really, even something as simple as shifting an octave requires an arcane button/keyboard combination. I don't think there are too many people who would be willing/able to commit all of the combinations to memory. I thought I would be able to use the companion iOS app, but the remote control function don't work with this keyboard.
I'm also kind of disappointed with the built-in speakers. It's true that it sounds amazing with headphones, but one doesn't always want to wear phones. It would be really cool if you had a way to accurately record the sound from the speakers, from the perspective of a person playing the instrument.
I'm honestly not sure which way to jump next.
I just got a E473 and the sound quality is amazing
Each has their advantages,
Rest of it depends on which type of player you are
This video is very specific to me I went with the CT-S1
Thank you for this video👍👍👍
So nice of you
@
Jeremy See which is the best keyboard under 175 dollar pls tellanyone [cts 300 , ctx 700 , psr e373 , or any keyboard and i am a begginer
Why do you prefer the key action on the Yamaha???
MR see my question for you it is,,,,,,, if i connect one smartphone with rythms to listen in the yamaha373's speakers....can i record my new musicals compositions using that rythms.... inside the memory of Yamaha 373 ??? regards from colombia
Thank you, Mr See! I have placed an order for my first keyboard on your recommendation, and that's the psr e373! Your followers can never have any doubts about making a decision when it's a "go" from you. Thank you! I am very excited to learn the piano and then music production. I will practice a lot. Always enjoy your videos, keep them coming! 😊😊
Great choice! Have fun
@@JeremySee thank you! 😊👍
I has both keyboards, the CTS1 has better sound engine, almost all sounds has 3 velocity layers, whereas e373 only has 2 velocity layers, except on few sounds (grand piano for ex.)
Hello Jeremy See, plz reply me!
3 hours ago! I'm fortunate. I just wanted to know about psr e373 specifically in your channel.
The CT-S1 is just starting to trickle in the USA. Sweetwater has the Red, Amazon has Black. No sign of the CT-S400 Yet, maybe next month. Good stuff!
Global supply is constrained
Buy from Casio USA website all colors available with free shipping
Which is better CT-S1 or the CT-S400 ? Which is build better, better sound and better speakers?
@@Elazarko Jeremy already made a video about the two, but to answer your question, the CT-S1's case is a bit more solid than than the CT-S400, as for voices, it's a pretty difficult pick for this one, because the CT-S1 has some voices SPECIFICALLY only fot it, that are not able to be found on any Casio keyboards, the CT-S400 is basically a CT-X700 with the same sized body as the CT-S1, finally both have the same speaker system, hope this helped :3
Just bought the CT-S1 for my mom (78yrs old) because she missed her old piano. She claims the keys require too much effort to press. Compared to her old piano, I strongly agree. Does the Yamaha have 'lighter' keys? If not, can you recommend a brand that DOES have very light keys for actuation. thx :)
Yamaha generally has lighter key action than Casio. Check out the links in my description.
Thank you sir. Nicely explained ❣️Sir I am confused between yamaha psr e 373 and psr e 473. Or should I go with any casio model? I am not a professional but I am learning to play songs to post on social media. Which one should I buy?
Check this ...ruclips.net/video/9BPdSf-hX7E/видео.html
Can the Casio be used as a MIDI controller?
Grazieeee!! Ottime!!
I used to own a 2nd hand Yamaha Clavinova digital about 10 yrs ago. However it has this "sticky" problem where the plastic key mechanism gets worn out and the keys when depressed do not return or bounce back to its original position. Unlike other digital pianos like Roland or Casio which I bought later they do not have such problems despite cheaper. I am not sure if the present newer clavinova series still retain such bad features. So perhaps Yamaha should annouce this to placate potential buyers who fear wasting money and hence turn to other brands.
Hi i wanna ask, what is the best keyboard with weighted keys and sensitive touch. The cheapest probably. Thank you!!
yamaha ypg-235
Still looking forward to a comparison of the CT-S400 to the PSR-E373. Debating between size, bass port speakers of the Casio, and the better interface of the Yamaha. The $30.00 difference in price should not be an issue for most people.
Yup! Coming up.
@@JeremySee Thank you!
Do these two keyboards have the same key width?
You are awesome!😀
Thanks a lot Jeremy ❤️ Just ordered Casio CT-S1 yesterday, Im so excited to receive it. Here in the Philippines, its $300 dollars however, I got it for only $275 because of a voucher.
what voucher did you use?
also where did you buy it from?
saan po kayo kabayan nakabili, link please...
Jeremy, I have a question: How are the keys of the Cts 1 in comparison with a digital keyboard like Yamaha Arius for example. Is there a huge difference? I played the DGX 660 and the keys are a little soft. Is that the case with the CTS-1?
CT-S1 are synth keys... Absolutely different from DGX or Arius
Did we can use yamaha psr520 for midi controler
i am a beginner so which should i take so i didnt regert it
I preferred the PSR-E373. This really gets my vote. Thanks!
I have the PSR-E310 with 15 more notes. Otherwise it is the same piano.
A comparison of CT S1 with Yamaha Piaggero NP-12 would be more appropriate. Here you compare a bit like apples (arranger keyboard) and oranges (piano keyboard)....
Is Ct s1 available in India? I searched alot for that
Can CTS1 be plugged in PC as midi controller?
Does casio ct s1 can use to earphone on bluetooth?
Please compare Casio CTX 800 & Casiotone CTS 400
Can you post a video for 2024 best budget keyboards under 200 $
*Which one is best???*
Always in Yamaha, but it is stil good classic sound in Casio Ct S1
Would have been good if you compared ctx870 with psre373
You haven't compared the quality of the sounds which I consider the most important feature of an instrument.
I would have like to hear a demo on the Casio to hear how the keys sound like a piano
Do you need a Audio Interface to record the CT-S1?
no
Thank you Jeremy! in your opinion, Is the CT-S1 the best 'piano like' 61 key portable keyboard today? I don't like the fact that the controls are a little hard to understand and remember but I am looking for the best 61/73 keyboard under $500 is there any other alternative you can recommend me? Thanks
Yamaha p45 a little above your budget but the best in that range. Possibly find one used

Why do you prefer the action of the yamaha over the casio. Does the yamaha feel more weighted than the casio ?
Can you make a review video on Nux WK-310 pls ?
UP
please compare yamaha PSR E373 vs Casio CTX 800
Yamaha has a silver color version of PSR-E373, model YPT-370, same tech specs.
Hi Jeremy, i think the CTS1 is more comparable with yamaha's NP series.
The exactly one is NP12,
Anyhow, may I know your opinion? which one is better?
@@marlodna877 i never owned a PSR e373... the CTS1 is good enough for beginners and intermediate playes
I bought the Yamaha psr 373 for a gift for myself for Christmas
Hi Jeremy, can you recommend me the best keyboard under $120 to play everyday and simple but worth it?
Thank you :)
Pianika :'v
Yamaha EZ-200.
Whatever USED keyboard you can find in your region and it has a key sensitive keybed.
Like an older model of Yamaha's E 3xx series. They are also easy to use.
It doesn't exists! LOL
I'll go with the casio
Please do a comparison between Casio Ct S1 and Casio S400❤️
Yes yes!
as much as the e373 is an excellent instrument, buying it from the official Yamaha Music London store was a nightmare. first they advertised it was in stock but when i arrived at the store it was not available. I had wasted money and time on travel. so I ordered a delivery but that was a disaster, too. the ups driver simply left the huge Yamaha box and accessories box in front of the door and did not even bother to ring the bell or otherwise let us know. fortunately we discovered the keyboard there before thieves did. how come the Yamaha folks put so much effort into development of great products but are unable to hire proper store/delivery staff?
Yamaha PSR E373 61 key touch sensitive keyboard portable knocks Casio CT S1 out of the park for functionality. It my not have the right feel, but for what it is and price, it can't be beat.
It's an entry level keyboard with a lot of features that never could have been had 20 yrs ago. Like arpeggio. It would have been thousands more.
I wish I’d seen this video before making my purchase. I like the Casio but with failing eyesight, the Yamaha screen would have been a better choice.
