Product Description
The YPT230 offers pure playing pleasure for both beginners and experienced players. The YPT-230 features 385 natural sounding voices, including Stereo Grand Piano, 371 XGlite voices, 13 drum kits and a sound effect kit. The YPT-230 also has 100 accompaniment styles and 102 built-in songs. The keyboard also has a rich Reverb effect that adds concert-hall ambience to any performance. Use the Portable Grand button to instantly call up an authentic stereo grand piano sound. One dedicated button brings up a great sounding piano, stunningly rich and authentic in its sound and exceptionally responsive to your playing touch, as well as setting up the keyboard to play as a piano. In addition to the 102 songs mentioned above, the YPT230 also has auto accompaniment styles that follow your playing. Simply select a style of music from the 100 built-in Styles (example Rock), play a single note or chord on the left side of the keyboard and play your melody on the right side. The YPT230 will create a backup band (bass, drums, strings, guitar etc.) and follow you through the song. You can play your songs and try different genres of music. It's both fun and entertaining. The music pathway to your computer and the Internet is MIDI. It's the way that keyboards communicate with computers. And because the YPT230 is both General MIDI (GM) and XGlite compatible, you have access to thousands of MIDI song files on the Internet.

I'm giving this piano 5 stars. For quality of build, features, sound quality and price. Quality Yamaha instrument (YPT-230). Great keys, nice sound, lots of features. Feels solid and well built. Read the product specs from Yamaha to compare various keyboards in this price range. Note that this model requires 6 AA batteries or an AC adapter, which is not included. Packaging indicates the following, "Requires AC adapter (YAMAHA PA-3C, PA-130). AC Adapter: not included". The only negative is that it didn't come standard with the AC adapter and Amazon wasn't clear in the item description. However, since the adapters are easily obtained for less than $20, it's a great deal even it you have to order the accessory adapter.

I purchased this keyboard on another website a couple of weeks ago. It has lots of sounds and decent sounding speakers. The build quality is also good, but lacks weighted and touch/velocity sensitive keys. If you are a prospective producer looking for something to hook up to your computer, I would not recommend this keyboard. If you are looking for a keyboard learn or practice this keyboard will be great for you. Also be aware that this keyboard comes with no cables including a power cable. Hope this helps.

After a lifetime of being musically challenged, I decided to learn to play the piano. Yamaha has a nice selection of low-cost keyboards for the beginner and I chose the YPT-230 based on price. It has a lot of nice features, but I was only interested in a well-built keyboard that sounds good. This keyboard is well-made and sounds just like a piano. It's just what I need!
It does not come with a power adapter, probably to shave a few bucks off the price. But I'd recommend getting one so you don't have to fool around with batteries.
