Yamaha PSR-A3000 61-Key Digital Arranger Keyboard

Yamaha PSR-A3000 61-Key Digital Arranger Keyboard

The PSR-A3000 features a large variety of Voices & Styles from around the world, an assignable joystick controller, panel scale tuner, and has dedicated space for your choice of expansion content.

Brings the reality to your performance
The new World Music Super Articulation Voices reproduce the actual instrument’s unique characteristics such as vibrato, tremolo and more. Other voices have also been enhanced for even greater realism. For example, a new feature called “Mono Legato” allows you to play trill phrases without using the joystick, perfect when playing with World Music string instrument Voices. The sound system in PSR-A3000 has also been refined, delivering a more powerful and punchy sound than ever before.

Joystick & Live Control function
PSR-A3000 is equipped with a joystick which provides intuitive control of pitch and modulation. Now you can play with rapid trills, dynamic pitch bends and finely-nuanced modulation all from a single, easily-configured, controller.

In addition to essential parameters such as Pitch Bend and Modulation, other features such as Filter, Style Track-Mute and more can be assigned and changed in an instant, making it really easy to add a unique flair to your performance!

Make the Original contents with Yamaha Expansion Manager
Have you ever wanted to play with more than just the preset sounds? You can now create your own original Voices and Drum kits using Yamaha Expansion Manager! Simply use samples from your own library (.wav, .aif, .aiff, .sf2) and edit a range of parameters on your computer using Yamaha Expansion Manager. You can even create and share your own original content with your friends!

Add a flavor to your performance with audio feature
If you’re enhancing a live performance with audio backing tracks from your music library, the time stretch, pitch shift, and vocal cancel functions of the USB audio player will add depth and versatility to your performance. You can also connect your Audio player to the Aux input terminal to add an additional element to your performance.

The Audio Link Multi Pad function enables you to link your own audio files (sound effects, vocal phrases, etc.) and trigger them from the Pads as you play.

Color Display
For simple intuitive control of the powerful features and capabilities of this advanced keyboard, the PSR-A3000 comes equipped with a large color LCD that allows you to monitor the status of your instrument at a glance, and gives you easy access to valuable performance functions.

Drum Setup function for your Style performance
With Style Creator, you can edit the parameters of a Drum kit in detail, change the drum parts using Voices from the various Drum kits or even use your own from Yamaha Expansion Manager. This means that you can personalize playing with Styles by using your own unique Drum kit!
