[@davidpilkington9802]

The PSR E463 is the first Yamaha keyboard I have ever bought and I am really impressed. The ability to play midi files directly from a USB stick works for me. When used with a sustain pedal you can hold the Arpeggio without keeping the keys pressed. This allows you to really play around with the modulation knobs. Fantastic! Good job Yamaha.

[@gearfacts]

Yeah I had the same reaction. There are some Casio models that have technically better sounds but man, for pure fun and enjoyment of music you can't beat the 463 :) #gearfacts

Does it come with the peddle? I’ve never had my own personal keyboard, but after doing some research I’m thinking about getting this model as my first. My late father was a producer/ audio engineer and I want to follow in his footsteps. :)

[@gowensbach2998]

Hello all. Now that Ive had time to mess around with this keyboard, I have to tell you that I love this one. In the past Ive owned a Roland D-20, a Korg M1, and a Korg Karma to name a few. Also own presently a Casio PX 160. Honestly, I just have more fun with the Yamaha. Does it have unmatched sound? Of course not. But it does have some sounds that are better than some of my previous keyboards as well. I think this keyboard would be a great one for gigging with, as it is light wieght and not very wide. It sounds great, albiet a tad metallic tone to the pianos. My biggest gripe is the placement of the headphone jack. Never seen such a bad place to put it! Rediculous! Its in the rear middle of the unit, and under a sort of lip that is difficult to see without lifting the keyboard. Nevertheless, I still recommend it because for the price, ya cant beat it.

[@gearfacts]

I agree with your comments 100%. As for the sounds, I'm finding that for synth bass it is genuinely excellent. Plenty of fat, round bass sounds that work well with the very smooth filters. Thanks for a great comment! :) Gearfacts

I bought this from Amazon yesterday without looking at a review. I just assumed it would be good, but this is far better than I hoped for. I'll bet there isn't anything a guy like Brian Eno could do with this alone. (Although I too wasn't feeling it with the clavier.) :)

[@gearfacts]

I agree with all your statements there. As you play this board your mind will be jumping with ideas. And the sampler will make up some ground for those sounds that aren't quite right, like the clavi ...and quite a few others! But it's just a fun board with stacks of inspiration. Enjoy! Gearfacts

Hey bro, I really appreciate your review! Did it come with a power supply? I see that there are options when ordering this. Option 1: keyboard Option 2: keyboard + x stand + power supply & software.

[@gearfacts]

Hi Robert, yes it definitely comes with a power supply so there's not need to spend extra. I'm rethinking my attitude to keyboards stands as well ..they're practical but very messy-looking when you get cables suspended around the legs. I'm going to get some kind of timber bench instead. But I digress... Glad you liked the video, I certainly liked using the PSR-E463 :) Gearfacts

[@Roboprogs]

I love the content of these reviews, but PLEASE get a mixing board so we can hear the line output of these instruments, and not just the ambient mic'd sound through the speakers. Yeah, I know I'm asking a bit considering I'm watching a free show, but it would be much nicer with line recordings to hear what the instrument "really" sounds like. Thanks in advance...

[@gearfacts]

Hey Robo, thanks for that message. And yes i think you're right, it's time to smarten up the channel. I'm going to try to make all recordings direct from now on unless I'm doing tutorials or other videos that are focused on operations rather than sound. I've also recently upgraded my camera so hopefully everything will be in 1080p now. I just realised last night that the standard intro I was using was dragging the resolution of the entire video down significantly. So I've fixed that, got the new camera, got the commitment to set up direct recording and we should be good to go! Gerafacts

hi, I recently bought a psr e463, it is a splendid instrument, but also complicated to understand all the effects and potentials, I only ask for one thing that I have not found and that I have not understood. The function key, the one that changes the various functions, such as the volume of the keyboard, the volume of the styles and much more, here, I was wondering if it is possible to change the various functions and store them? Or, once the keyboard is turned off, do they go back to the basic setting, therefore having to change them every time? thank you

[@gearfacts]

Good question. You have the registration buttons under the display, but they won’t retain global settings for the keyboard. All settings will be unique to each registration.

[@giddynyash5835]

Does the keyboard have the ability to play audio files in wav format also could you direct on how to convert from midi to wav using the e463

[@gearfacts]

Yep if you have a look in the "File control" button, hold it down and use the direction buttons to move left/right until you find something like 'export song' or 'export as wav' ...My memory is unlcear but it's something like that. You'll need a USB stick in the back :) #gearfacts

[@maxcullum2920]

Fair suck of the sav mate! I was all set to buy the Korg EK50, as reviewed by you. But now you have thrown me a curve ball with your review of the Yamaha PSR-E463. The Yamaha is $100 more expensive in NZ. Your opinion on which to buy would be greatly appreciated. You have a nice relaxed way of presenting your videos, which are also very informative. Look forward to more presentations from you. Almost forgot, I am a complete beginner if that helps. Take care, stay safe.

[@gearfacts]

Hey Max, thanks for watching and commenting. I’m surprised that the Yamaha is more expensive there, the KORG has always been the primo one here. So that is indeed a curveball. Hmmm. Well the pros for the KORG are: Better keyboard feel, better basic sounds, louder speakers. The major pro for the Yamaha, despite its weaker general sounds, is that it’s just so insanely FUN to play with. I tend to recommend choosing what’s the most fun, especially for learners. But I understand that some people might be intent on taking a pretty serious and focused approach to learning piano. But in truth mate, you probably already know which one you are going to buy: The one that makes you smile when you’re standing in front of it at the shop :)

I do like how it fades in gradually, though. 6:40 Ah, what nice sample--YAMAHA! Why are you still using that sample? 7:50 You call the Roland samples "General MIDI" so...are those samples not really owned by Roland or are actually freely usable by companies? 11:00 What are the main demo songs, though? Are they Elements, Jessica, and Chillin'?

The General Midi soundset is reprduced by agreement between all companies I think, isn't it? Maybe with a licensing system or similar. They all have their own slightly varying version.

Hi there, to upload voices you need .USR files which will have sounds saved in the registry. I have some that you can download if you give me your email address.

Would you choose this over a used professional keyboard like the korg i30 or the kurxweil k2000? If so, why? Application would be a home studio.

[@gearfacts]

I'd choose those older models for serious composing. In this comparison, I'd quote the phrase "Jack of all trades" which is what the PSR-E463 is. And that's partly what makes it such a riot to use. But for a home studio (i.e. no live work component or kids to amuse) I think you'd be better off with something that has a bit more sound-building scope. Just an opinion of course, but that's my take on it :) #gearfacts

Can I play gigs with this? Or should I spend a little extra and get and MX series instead?

[@gearfacts]

The quality of the sounds on the MX is WAY higher. You can gig with a PSE-E463 sure, but I'd class it as an amateur instrument (a brilliantly fun one) wheras the MX has a much more professional edge. Also it's lighter to carry :) #gearfacts

[@gearfacts]

Heck yes. I personally have declared the Casio CT-X series 'inoperable' because beyond the selecting of sounds, it's just too quirky to so anything creative. To be fair, editing tones is clunky as anything but reasonably easy to understand. Any kind of sequencing, forget it. The Yamaha's sounds are nowhere near as good but if you want to keep frustration out of your gig, it's a much more enjoyable creative path to follow. Lately I've been noticing that you can buy some awesome second-hand synths for the price of either the Casio or the Yamaha, though. Much better value.

would you say this wold be suitable for a 13 year old to use at home who has just started using the keyboard at school , i was looking at the casio CT-X700C5 as a alternative as that has a learning function whatever that means . am i making a expensive mistake buying the 463 for a beginner.

[@gearfacts]

In short, no. I certainly wouldn't get a current Casio model for a beginner because the complicated operating system will be a complete severe turn-off during the critical first few weeks of learning. The PSR is much more user-friendly is generally more enjoyable to use with some extra fun features like the sampler and the rhythm creator. If you're budget is around 300-400 then I think it's a good place to start. It's important to match the instrument to the student too, I think. As I always say: "Buy the one that makes you smile."

[@stephenbarclay3514]

thanks for that so down to ease of operating and able to get the best use out of it and value for money should i go for the yamaha 363 or the 463 for her ..her gift rests with you

[@gearfacts]

If the budget allows for a 463 I say go for it. It's a huge step up. Just one last note: If price is a concern then the models PSR-E403, 413, 423, 433, 443 and (you guessed it) 453 all have pretty much the same feature set. You simply get more sounds and beats with each model up the chain. So the only real extra thing on the 463 is sampling which is a whole new realm. Personally I think it's worth the money to have that feature, but if you doubt your daughter would want to record her own sounds then you can forego the sampling and save quite a lot. As for the 363 and any other Yamaha that starts with 3**, they are all pretty boring I think. Good luck!

Sir how to set the sounds in psr e463 for example i want to click one sound for piano one is for synth one for brass ? Can it be possible?

[@gearfacts]

Yes, it's possible. Find the sound you want, then hold the STORE button and press one of the buttons 1.4 in the REGISRATION section, just above the keys in the middle.

is there any bagpipesound?

[@gearfacts]

There is, and it's not bad... But the best bagpipe sound I've ever heard is on the "Roland Go:Keys". It's about the same price in the shops and I really recommend it. I've reviewed it on my channel if you want to have a listen, go to the video with the "short spoken intro", it has the bagpipe sound about 2/3 of the way through :) Gearfacts

Would you recommend this over a midi keyboard for studio recording?

[@gearfacts]

No, if I was just going to be working in the studio with a computer then I'd stick to a dedicated controller keyboard. The PSR-E463 has a lot of features that are aligned to live work so that's a lot of extra cost that you don't need for a studio project :) Gearfacts

Can you tell me which is better Yamaha psr e463 or Casio ctx5000?

[@gearfacts]

I've made a video directly comparing the Yamaha psre463 and the Casio ctx3000 (the 5000 just has more sounds then the 3000, bigger speakers and no battery power) - It might help you choose. I think most people would say that the 5000 is the best, it has amazing sounds, clearly the best in its class at this time. It's much harder to operate than the Yamaha. All things to consider... Buy the one that makes you smile! And let me know what your decision is :) Gearfacts

Dude is it worth buying it now in 2020 And also which is better dude 1 . Casio CTX 9000in or 2. Yamaha PSR e463 Pls reply to me🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@gearfacts]

The sounds are a little bit better in the Casio CT-X series, but I place a lot of value in the FUN that a keyboard gives you. And for sheer FUN, the PSR-E463 is unbeatable. The Casio sounds good but it's a total pain to use. I still think the PSR-E463 is worth buying because it can sample, so even if the sounds aren't quite what you want, you can always create more. You can even get the Gearfacts sound pack if you want ;)
