Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around 61 keys, the PSR-E473 gives you a wide palette of 820 voices and 290 accompaniment styles for playing, arranging, and developing ideas. Groove Creator lets you shape a beat as you play, including its intro, section changes, and climax. Quick Sampling adds captured audio to the keyboard, while pitch bend and two assignable control knobs keep sound changes within reach. USB TO HOST also supports MIDI and audio transfer to a computer.

- Building layered beat ideas in real time with Groove Creator and the keyboard’s voice and style library.
- Capturing a vocal or ambient clip through the mic input, then triggering it during a performance.
