Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? The quality is great for the price. I am 46 and had to let go of my keyboards when reactivated for first Gulf War mess, and my how things change for the better! I was/am quite familiar with MIDI, with last board I owned was a Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 MIDI-converted. Features What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could? USB connectivity,envelope/filter controls,and the quasi-Workstation features as in the 6-track sequencer were the selling points for me AND the Easy 3 Payment Plan--customer for life here! I still gave it a 5 even though I think it is kinda s****y that a keyboard such as this does not come with a power cord OR a USB cord. I pulled the one off my out of ink printer for now. Back in the 80's, these things came with products, even the old DX7's came with a power cord. Kinda like buying a car but not getting the gas tank, my opinion echos others on this one! I would have liked a USB to load direct flash memory as well, but thinking this can be done through the PC interface, still readng... Ease of Use How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be? I am still absorbing the manual for advanced features but right out of the box easy. My laptop is pretty new, with Windows Vista Home Premium Edition--no problems installing software at all. Sound How is its Tone? Tone is impressive! Action How was the action out of the box? Action is good feeling for this kind of board, with the velocity being nicely responsive. The Portable Grand is awesome! Value Was this item an overall good value? Back in 1989, one would have had to spend a few thousand $$ for all the features this has.
Great Buy!! Would make the same choice again.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? This keyboard is very well made. Compared with similar personal keyboards from other makers, Yamahas are better. I am confident this will translate into many years of use. Features What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could? The many quality sounds, arpeggiator and the effects controls are what helped me choose the PSR-E413. Ease of Use How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be? Controls are arranged and operate in a very logical manner. This simplifies use and has allowed us to quickly start to play the instrument. The manual covers all the controls and is decent. Sound How is its Tone? The sounds are great. The speakers are adequate for a small room. The stereo headphone/output offers the flexibility of private listening or performance power. Action How was the action out of the box? The keyboard, buttons and knobs all operated smoothly. The variable touch keys have great feel. Value Was this item an overall good value? For less than half the price, the Yamaha PSR-E413 has almost the same features as the Roland E09. A great value for an amateur musician.
