I'm still figuring out all the things that can be done w/ this keyboard. So many options but, it has the basics that I was really looking for. The one thing I've noticed that I don't like is the responsiveness of the keys - but, I guess that might be a reason to have spent more money.

Comments about Yamaha YPG-535 - 88-Note Portable Keyboard:
This piano/keyboard is so fantastic you want to play it more and more. I think if every 8 year old had one they'd want to take piano lessons and want to practice. I never practiced as a child, but this keyboard encourages me, and I have gotten better as a senior citizen. You CAN teach an old dog. I've reheared several of the stored songs over and over, and I've gone thru a fake book, using the accompaniment with various styles and voices. You feel like you're playing with a jazz band or orchestra. Before I know it a few hours have flown by. It is complicated and I still have things I want to learn related to connecting to the computer, downloading, etc. But it is a purchase I have been totally happy about.
