The Yamaha YPT220 features 375 natural sounding voices, 361 XGlite voices, 12 drum kits and a sound effect. Included in the voices is a Stereo Grand Piano. The keyboard also includes 100 accompaniment styles and 102 built-in songs.
This keyboard is great for someone learning to play keyboard or piano, thanks to the Yamaha Education Suite feature. With this feature you can actually teach yourself how to play piano. There is a series of built-in lessons. Easy lesson steps allow you to master a song. Learn to play with the left and right hand separately, as well as together.
I love the Portable Grand button feature. This feature lets you instantly call up Yamaha's grand piano sound and puts your entire keyboard in piano playing mode.
The keyboard comes with 9 different reverb types. It has 61 regular-sized keys and 32-note polyphony. It can be powered by 6 AA batteries or AC adapter.
The Yamaha YPT220 is a great keyboard to buy when you're not sure how interested your child is in playing the keyboard or whether he or she will stick to it. It's pointless buying a more expensive keyboard only to find out that the child loses interest in playing. With a cheaper keyboard the blow will be softened. If your child maintains interest in playing, you can go for a more expensive model.
THIS ALSO COMES WITH A JS-Z1000 ADUSTABLE HEIGHT Z-STYLE KEYBOARD STAND
