A Piano that will please your teacher, your decorator and your accountant
The DGX500 is the first Portable Keyboard with piano keys and is the flagship in a new series of instruments from Yamaha called Portable Grand. It is packed with functions and features designed specifically for the new piano user. Included with the DGX500 is a furniture-type stand that completes its piano image. The Yamaha Portable Grand feature in the DGX500 is immediately apparent when you see the large, piano-shaped button in the center of the front panel. When you push it, the best piano is automatically chosen, the auto-accompaniment is turned off, putting the keyboard in full keyboard mode — just like a piano. A piano accompaniment style is automatically selected and is waiting for you if you choose to use it. Next to the piano button is a metronome-shaped button, giving you a built in metronome for practice.
Yamaha is one of the only portable keyboards manufacturers that builds and designs real pianos and in fact, Yamaha is recognized as the world leader in pianos, from home models to concert grands. This experience makes the introduction of the DGX500 especially significant due to its piano focus. Yamaha Portable Keyboards have always been recognized by consumer and music publications as superior musical instruments and the portable keyboard brand of choice. With the advent of the Yamaha DGX500, Yamaha confirms its leadership position once again. As for sound, the DGX500 features an extra-high quality stereo piano sample, General MIDI (GM) compatibility and a selection of Yamaha's famous XG Lite voices resulting in remarkable sonic quality, far beyond anything in its price point. The quality is enhanced by the inclusion of two-way speakers and bass ports for high fidelity sound.
