This review is from: Yamaha DGX-530 Keyboard, 88 Full-Sized Lightly Weighted Piano Style KeysTried this instrument out in the store and could not figure out what the difference was between this one and the 520 I previously reviewed on amazon. Sound qualities, voices, layout, display, and software all seemed identical to me to the 520. Finally, after a direct inquiry to Yamaha, I was told that the only difference between this model and the 520 was that the 530 contained 10 more rhythm sequences.So, if you're one of those who would use this instrument heavily for recording and composition, and just could never find the right rhythmic background, you can try this one and see if one of their ten extra sequences works for you.If you're like me, however, who use the keyboard mostly for performance purposes and only occasional composition and recording, it really isn't worth upgrading. If you're diligent enough and have the software (pretty much any layered music recording sequence will do; I happen to use Cakewalk 4), you can make and save your own rhythms anyway on either keyboard.For a more detailed review of other features this keyboard has, check my review out on the DGX-520...aside from the extra rhythms, it's exactly the same....
This review is from: Yamaha DGX-530 Keyboard, 88 Full-Sized Lightly Weighted Piano Style KeysThis is a great board to play on. It's full sized (all 88 keys), comes with everthing need, stand, book rest, A/C adapter, and even comes with a sustain pedal, which a lot of other boards don't and you have to buy the sustain separate. The sound quality is great and can be very loud when turned up :).I read a review on here that said something about the keys 'clicking' when they were struck. I haven't had this problem, the keys strike nicely and smoothly. I think this is a great product for anyone who wants a nice keyboard without spending wads of money....
This review is from: Yamaha DGX-530 Keyboard, 88 Full-Sized Lightly Weighted Piano Style KeysThis is our second time owning this type of Yamaha. Our experience has been the same with both pianos. Nice features on this model, however the keys are extremely clicky, when pressed. I hear the clicking more than the notes, which is distracting. The tone quality is luxurious, and the clicking is not heard when playing back a recording you've made. I have had this yamaha for a year now, and have to say the clicking gets worse and worse with use. Our yamaha gets lots of play time, but no abuse. (About 3.5 to five hours per day.) With regular use, the keyboard sounds more and more like a typewriter when the keys are struck. If you will be playing for under an hour per day, this model might last you long enough to be satisfactory. Anyone looking for something for an entire family to use regularly, will not get more than a year of use....
