A New Generation of PSR-E Designed for Daily Creativity
Designed for beginner and intermediate keyboardists, the PSR-E583 modernizes the portable arranger keyboard experience. Its philosophy: to offer inspiring sounds, intuitive automatic accompaniment, and immediate controls to stimulate improvisation, learning, and composition every day.
Keyboard Design
Playing remains natural and expressive thanks to a
light touch with velocity sensitivity, ideal for exploring a wide variety of repertoires. The
assignable Live Control Knobs allow you to sculpt the sound on the fly, while the
pitch wheel opens the door to glides and solo inflections. On the PSR-E583, a dedicated
modulation wheel and
expression pedal compatibility provide even finer dynamic control for the stage.
Sound Quality
At the heart of these models, an
expressive sound engine powers an expanded collection of sounds and accompaniments. The
Super Articulation Lite Voices recreate the details of non-keyboard acoustic instruments, such as string friction or wind breath, for immediate realism. The
local Voices cover many world music styles, with a particular emphasis on the PSR-E583. This model also benefits from a
more powerful built-in amplification, ideal for small stages and rehearsals.
Built-in Effects
Motion Effects add movement and texture to the sound, with preset treatments such as
phaser and
tremolo, perfect for energizing a line, pad, or live performance.
Educational Features
With
Auto Chord Play, let the keyboard play a predefined chord progression while you freely improvise with a Style. Record your own chord sequences, loop them, and switch between them using the
Looper. These tools promote hand independence, harmonic ear training, and creativity while making practice more enjoyable.
Advanced Features
- Track Control: turn Style parts on/off, change the Voice of each track, and adjust volumes for a customized song structure.
- Quick Sampling: capture a short phrase via your phone's microphone, trigger it anytime, and synchronize the sample to the Style.
- Real-time control: Live Control Knobs, pitch wheel, and modulation wheel + expression pedal for professional nuances.
- Local Voices and SALite: extensive palette of timbres to explore world music with realism and expressiveness.
