DGX-200

All Yamaha portable keyboards feature the powerful Portable Grand, the most realistic piano sound available on a portable instrument. Just press the piano-shaped button to get the rich sound and effect of playing a competition-caliber Yamaha grand piano at Carnegie Hall.

Yamaha's Advanced Wave Memory (AWM) technology delivers simply stunning instrument sounds. The DGX-200 is loaded with 605 sounds, so you'll never run out of musical ideas or tone colors. Top musicians in Tokyo, Los Angeles and London designed the 135 authentic rhythm styles included on the DGX-200. With the touch of a button you can reproduce realistic rhythm and backgrounds – from Ragtime and Reels to Rap and R&B and everything in between. And all these wonderful sounds are pumped through an on-board 2-way speaker system with bass ports.

Yamaha Music Schools have been teaching music around the world since the 1950's, so Yamaha knows music education. We used our experience to create the Yamaha Education Suite (YES2) built in to the DGX-200. YES2 features 7-step piano lessons. You can learn any of the 100 built-in songs, or learn to play songs you download from the Internet and store in the built-in flash ROM. YES2 will even grade your performance. Don't worry, YES2 will be gentle – Grade levels range from 'O.K.' to 'Excellent.'

The PC Button allows you to easily connect your DGX-200 to a PC. Once connected to a PC, you can play along with song files from the Internet, record MIDI files on your PC, or even take online piano lessons (software sold separately.) Check out Yamaha's PC Music Studio Kit to get a connection cable, MIDI recording software and Piano teaching software all in one convenient, money-saving package.

Music Database lets virtually any player sound like a professional while playing over 200 styles of music. You just select a song style and Music Database selects the best rhythm, effects, instruments and arrangement.

The Watch & Learn Video Series is an in-home learning series for portable keyboard enthusiasts, featuring Tom Folenta, one of Yamaha's top product specialists.
