## Description

Craft music on the go with this 42-voice digital keyboard. Features arpeggiator, phrase recorder, and touch-sensitive keys for an immersive playing experience.

Review: This is a great portable keyboard with some very useful features, and not just for beginners. - Velocity and touch sensitive mini keys which actually are not that bad to play. It has some nice on board sounds, the arpeggiator is so much fun, as are the effects, and the speaker does a half decent job. this is a great keyboard for pro's and beginners alike, and its portability makes it an ideal product to chuck in a bag and go, or just chill in a chair and jam. The price is a give a way. its not a toy.
Review: Good quality, good sounds and touch sensitivity. - Purchased for my 8 year old daughter as a first non-toy keyboard. I like Yamaha (used to have a TRB bass guitar) as it is well-priced for the quality you are getting. The size is great for getting little hands capable of some interval stretches (she can manage about a perfect 5th on this) and chord playing. The sounds are impressive and there are some effects to muck about with. You can also record phrases and play back. Hooked it up to Garage Band just to see if you can (you can). I would recommend this for anyone who doesn’t want a toy and is wanting to progress to beginner level.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small USB Music Keyboard
*by B***R on 4 January 2025*

I've wanted a small but functional USB MIDI keyboard for some time. I like composing, but at 5am in the morning it's not great to play my piano or my larger keyboard. I also have a small office which is ideal if I could find a smaller keyboard to place on the desk 'at will'. Enter THIS keyboard. Small footprint, compact, USB or battery powered, light, reasonably well featured and sensible MIDI instrument set if slightly imperfectly chosen. If I was to design my OWN keyboard it wouldn't be far away from this model. It comes boxed and with a USB lead. The keys are semi sized, but relatively easy to play despite my slightly oversize hands. One feature I use a lot is the drop/raise octave as there are only three octaves which doesn't quite cover full vocal range for all musical keys. All in all it does what I hoped it would, performs well, doesn't need additional power, and with a decent pair of headphones serves my purposes. If there was one tiny criticism I would say that some of the sound samples aren;t of the best quality, causing some winces when playing some tracks. That's a minor observation but at its' price-point it is sufficiently adequate.
