* Again no keyboard/action upgrade? When, Yamaha? Another 4 years, 8, 16, or never? * Still *.wav files only!? Really? * Likewise no computer/MIDI/VST & plugins compatibility? * Are keys just glossy plastic surface? No pattered/moisture absorption surface? * No tablet connection (Bluetooth/WiFi or otherwise) to have a much larger (and upright) screen? * White speakers is a silly choice. They could have been 'pro' without being white. It will show more dust, sooner, will discolor from that and insect marks, and with everything else being black it looks tacky. Sure the keys are white too but that only amplifies the problem, in that the keys will be bright and glossy forever while the speakers will be a duller white with dust and stains making this look 'old and tired' much sooner with dust and stains and insect marks on the white. Waited years for this and what a disappointment. Does anyone know of something with 88 weighted and graded hammer action keys, that have patterning/moisture absorption, accompaniment feature, and VST compatibility? (It doesn't need to have its own speakers.) Add to that tablet/display connection would be icing on the cake. I wish I had the ability to manufacturer my own... My sales would drown these "1 in every 4 musical instrument" manufacturers who hold back upgrades and do things like reduce keys to 76, etc in under two years. [Sigh!]

Same 😂

😂😂😂😂

i am really confused between the two! What do you think I should get? I am sure about one thing that 660 has a better look but 670 is feature rich and I really wanna enjoy my comeback to piano experience

😂😂😂

Yep. This is precisely why you’re watching these videos because if you had money to afford this piano you would be playing music all day long LoL 😂

this one is affordable.

I bought this DGX 670 two days ago

If there’s one you can afford...it’s this one.

Great choice. Have fun!

Thank you...

I prefer the dgx 660 design... This new design is too curvy n rounded...

@@insamyoja2 Yeah. Too much curvature is a synonym of "non-professional household appliance". A MOTIF-style edgy design would be more stylish and stagey.

Glad you enjoyed it!

@@JeremySee it is 💗to hear from you 👍

@@JeremySee I have a request. If you can, please do little video about Casio CTK 7200 Keyboard. Because I have owned one of them and doesn't have knowledge to get full potential from it.

Sadly, bluetooth audio has inherent latency problems and thus is not suitable for realtime instrument amplification. Even slightest lag between keystrokes and notes will ruin the player's performance experience. Line out, comparatively, is easier to achieve. Make a 1/4" TRS to dual 1/4" TS converter cable with a 47-ohm 1/4-watt resistor between each channel and ground - this works as a dummy load with an impedance similar to a pair of generic headphones, and makes the keyboard's output circuit run nearer to its designed working point. The output impedance is crazily low so generally there's no need for a DI box.

Yes, 660. I bought one to replace my YPG only to find the basic piano sounds are horrible in comparison. Now it's a dust collecting paper weight.

I am a small insignificant channel and don't have access to an early access review unit. I have ordered mine like everyone else and will review and confirm.

Hi does it have a dedicated sustain button to use without sustain pedal? Thanks

Yup. I've ordered a unit with my own money to give you an independent and unbiased perspective.

​@@JeremySee It would be great if you'll mention if the keyboard has an audio over USB feature. The guy didn't mention it and didn't talk about midi as well.

I definitely will! In fact, it's one of the upgrades I have been begging for and it's finally available.

@@JeremySee 21.4 kg - Heavy little sucker! Looks like GHS keyboard (outdated??). Looks like we are good on USB, but not sure. Spec sheet shows No audio out unless you jerry-rig something with the headphone jack or Bluetooth. Escapement? Probably not...but not mentioned anywhere. asia-latinamerica-mea.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_instruments/pianos/portable_grand/dgx-670/specs.html

I once owned the Casio PX560.....& before I bought it,there was so much hype about this keyboard & when I discovered it had workstation functionality,I thought it was the perfect & cheaper alternative to a Korg workstation keyboard.When I recieved my first PX560,it was all mangled & defective & then I re-ordered another one.I loved the key-bed & the large touchscreen was nice(but apart from a very few select programs,most of the sounds were very disappointing.Also...I found that the menu layouts(particularly in the sequencer area)...was very confusing & tedious and the editing features are nowhere near as good as Korg's workstations.Perhaps the PX560 suits your needs & you are happy with it hopefully.....but based on my experience with the PX560,I think the DGX 670 is a far superior keyboard and it's $400 less!

Yeah Buddy....that MZ-X500 is a monster too......to say it's a sub professional keyboard.

@@tgregorywoodley3871 I play the MZX500 everywhere even though I have more expensive keyboards(Yamaha MOXF6). The MZX500 is a monster like you said.

Unfortunately, I am just a tiny and insignificant KZfaq channel and Yamaha doesn't provide me with an early access review unit to make helpful videos for my viewers. I have to queue and buy like everyone else. I will make more detailed reviews and comparison when my order arrives.

Look up vocoder harmonizer.

I have ordered a unit and will confirm in my review. Watch out for it!

Lucky you! Have fun.

curious whether you ended up exploring this further

On Yamaha's keyboards only the Genos, the PSR SX900 and the latest CVP have this feature. It is called "chord looper".

This DGX-670 absolutely took me by surprise. It included many things I have been talking about in my channel for the past 2 years.

In an earlier video I said the same thing. The DGX 670 squashes the PSR SX600 and PSR SX700. The ONLY thing the arrangers have over this is MIDI but if you have no need for MIDI than this is the kit you need.

And the Dgx has 88 keys.

The PSR still has more features that's useful for gigging musicians that's worth the $200 difference. On top of my head: portability, more registration slots, an assignable mod wheel, proper line outs and a touch screen. It's not surprising that DGX has better piano sounds than more expensive PSR models. It's meant to be a digital piano after all. Heck, my P125 has much better sound than the S775 for less than half the cost.

Jeremy See Best value for money ever. It’ll sell like hot buns. I wonder why they didn’t put this on the market for Christmas.

So nice of you to keep it at the church. ❤️

@@JeremySee Yeah, I have been there for a long time, I help with the sound ministry, used to set everything up for them, but now I just make the CD copies for the messages, so I have a 1 x 9 CD/DVD burner I can use whenever I need it. We need a nice keyboard. They can take the other one on outreaches and leave the nice one there. $400 cheaper than the Roland RD 88! I may be able to get it in a few months after my lsptop. With the laptop and the micro BR recorder, I have less to carry and can go to use the keyboard at church. I got the keys so I can go there overnight and play. I won't need to lug my keyboard there, but can do things from home, or at church.

@@jjacob25101 God bless you!

Yup, Amazon can be inconsistent sometimes. $1,299 is MSRP but $799 is street price. 👍

It's out, but if you didn't preorder it might be rough getting your hands on it.. Mine should be arriving soon, I pre-ordered it a week after it was revealed

The keys on Yamaha's GHS keybed are known to get loose and noisy over time.

it has a headphone output which you can switch to amp output from the settings, based on other review videos I have seen. But it has just one, you can't have headset and external speakers at same time.

Thank you for your kind words buddy.

Comparing an ARRANGER piano and a regular digital piano is like comparing apples and oranges. Both are fruits but they taste different.

Soon. I have to queue up to buy like everyone else. 😉

There are 3 intros and endings. I will cover that in my review. 😉

@herdjati pravito What do you mean by "full sequencer?" If by that you mean that the DGX 670 has full editing features such as adjustable measure creation,copy & paste function,insert effects on individual tracks? Not very likely.....& to my knowledge,no Yamaha keyboard since the Motif series,has such song sequencer functionality(not even the Genos.)

Unfortunately, I'm just a nobody who has to wait in line to buy the DGX-670 with my own money to make reviews and tutorials for my students.

@@JeremySee For me you are somebody because you're wonderfully made by God.

At least yours came with a stand.

I waited and I bought the 670

Yes! Me too!

Then it wouldn't be a "portable grand piano" as it's called.

If you are in India, you'll have to wait a long time more. USA, Europe & South East Asia will be delivered next week.

@@JeremySee Thank you. Any expected date or so...so that I can book as and when released in India.

unfortunately, I do not work for Yamaha and I am not from India and do not have the information.

@@JeremySee Thank you so much for your support

I think touchscreen would be difficult to be accurate on this screen

Hope not, the price would be x2. It's already pushing the limits on affordability, quality , features and weighed keys for around 700+ where I live. I bought this as a toy but turns out it out performed my VST pianos in my professional daw. It's fantastic. I hope they have sample expansions for it would be a better upgrade and easier style customizations.

601 instrument voice and 29 drum kits according to Yamaha official page.

True that! This is stretching the definition of portability.

i am really confused between the two! What do you think I should get? I am sure about one thing that 660 has a better look but 670 is feature rich and I really wanna enjoy my comeback to piano experience

I'm waiting for my DGX-670 I ordered too!

$799

Jeremy See I hope the price will be in the same range in Europe but I doubt it. At $799 it’s a steal.

@@JeremySee Thanks!
