Thanks for watching David. Over the years I found that if you want to earn your living from music it literally pays to be versatile.

Thanks Kevin, much appreciated.

Thanks Ian

@Ed No, OCS has its own tune.

Thanks for listening Uriel.

John bro plz tell me how to closed sound level indicator 🙏 plz tell me ...and harmonium tone is available in this keyboard ?plz tell me🙏

Yes this Yamaha shows the name of the chord you are playing. Gm7, Bb etc.

I got this one from Thomann for £222. www.thomann.de/gb/yamaha_psr_e373.htm

Good news and bad news! Bad = When I hook it up to both of my amps, a Marshall DSL1 tube amp and a Stagg Acoustic guitar amp, there is an unacceptable level of hiss at the treble end. Neither amp is of course ideal for a keyboard but they are the best I have. I play in churches so I do not have to provide organ or piano amplification, just guitar. The good news is that it does remember you custom voice pairs without having to install batteries.

@@JohnCouplandguitar - thank you for your reply. I also play in church, though not supplied with an instrument - have to provide them. At this time I use a Casio CTK-7000 which has been a fantastic keyboard for the last 10 years. I am hoping that when Yamaha upgrades their PSR-E463 (must be coming soon if PSR-E363 was upgraded last year) - that they will include the stereo (L/R) inputs like Casio does on their identically priced keyboards. I love the sound of that piano - and E-piano on the PSR-373, quite an upgrade -

Yes you are hearing the output going through the Tascam with no EQ or effects added. The in built speakers give a slightly thinner sound but still pretty good.

Mine is on order also and keeps getting pushed back. Where did you order from? I used Guitar Center.

@@ModernPhotographyGroup I got this one from Thomann in Germany. It only took 3 days to arrive in Scotland.

Modern Photography Group I ordered mine from Sweetwater in September. Since it's a new model, I knew that I would have to wait until their shipment arrived. I found out that it finally shipped today. I'm looking forward to trying it out soon.

Modern Photography Group we ordered back in early October from amazon Said it was FINALLY being shipped November 27th Said it was to arrive December 2nd by UPS Nothing Called amazon and looks like UPS had it last week and now it’s vanished No one has an answer Amazon says “sorry were sold out” and yours is lost.... gosh we’re sorry What the F I wonder now if Amazon ever had the keyboards!?

I just put it straight into my Tascam 8 track. I have not gigged with this keyboard as I play in churches where there is always an organ, keyboard or piano in situ. Generally the clearest sound is achieved by keeping the keyboard volume fairly low, say 30%, and then bring the volume up on the amp.

I would normally have the volume between 50 and 70%. There is however a significant difference between the piano and the organ sounds with the piano being very dependant on how hard you play. Try going in to the function menu and experiment by changing the touch response.

This is only for the house, the local church has a Roland piano. When I go to other churches as the main attraction, rather than the old guy at the organ, I normally use a guitar.

John Coupland I bet the Roland is a very fine instrument. As for the guitar you’re right it probably gives a more modern feel to the service. Some church organs are nice, though. In our church (where I don’t go very often to be honest) it is a Baroque organ.

Ah memories of playing the accordion. I borrowed one from the shop and spent three weeks at the mirror watching my left hand grope around the buttons. Then the joy of taking off a 120 bass and feeling like someone just turned down Gravity!

Hi KL, I am not sure what you are asking in the first question but I can tell you there are 3 harmoniums in the World Instruments section.

I have used the 373 with various programs in my PC. Adobe Audition recording software, Pianoteq and Organteq virtual instruments, all without problems. I am using the keyboard's Aux input for the PC which saves having speakers on my desk. The headphone socket is standard 1/4" (6.3 mm) but I do not have a pen drive so I cannot help you there.

@@JohnCouplandguitar Hello John. Regarding recording. Could you recommend a set up for a beginner recording- i.e. easiest to use/understand software, with what kind of Laptop/Desktop? Baring in mind, I will be recording other instruments and voice, as well?

@@darrenturner8913 Hi Darren, I have tried recording to my PC with mixed results, what works on Monday rarely works again on Tuesday! My preferred method is to use an 8 track recorder such as the Tascam DP-03. I then transfer the song to my PC, 'Normalise,' the song to radio volume and then top and tail the unwanted background noise and I leave 2 seconds of silence at the end of each song. Running a PC in the recording room may result in the microphone picking up the noise of its cooling fan. The built in mics are only for grabbing an idea, they are not good enough for the finished product but don't spend a fortune otherwise you will pick up the neighbours TV etc. Have a look at this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/acxngsafsNvFdI0.html

Yes indeed, it has no vices.

@@JohnCouplandguitar Thanks John, I'm going to get one 👍

I taught myself guitar when I was 15 and organ ten years later so that is 54 and 44 years respectively.

@@JohnCouplandguitar Bravo!!!

You can either use a sustain pedal which I was doing or hit Function 24 where you can turn the sustain on or off. The pedal is of course an extra.

John Coupland thanks!

£222

The NP12 has better organ sounds and great simplicity of operation. The 373 has a better piano and all the bells and whistles. On balance I would choose the 373.

@@JohnCouplandguitar Okey, thanks. The I Will wait for piaggero; ser how It os; and If It doesn't convince me i would go for the e373. This 373 i see that It packs some more notes of polyphony. Don't you see It that way??

@@manueljesusmartincarrasco9529 48 vs 64? 48 is more than enough for me.

@@JohnCouplandguitar Thank you. I want the keyboard to play piano and church organ sounds. Which one would you advise me? due to the polyphony and the touch of the keys.

@@manueljesusmartincarrasco9529 The church organs on the NP are much better that the 373 whereas the 373's piano is only slightly better so I would go for the NP-12.

I never use rhythms unless I am making a recording that needs them. Generally it is piano, pipe organ or classical guitar. Although I own a couple of nice classicals, composing on the keyboard stops me getting stuck in a creative rut.

That's an idea!
