Expression and creativity

The PSR-E473 features a ten-band graphic equalizer and Motion Effects. This keyboard makes it easy to tweak your tone and add new, exciting sounds to your performances—just like a drummer adds fills and accents to their beats.

You can use the two knobs and the Motion Effect button on the front panel to dynamically create filters, riser effects, or other transient-based FX. This keyboard also has a built-in Sampler to capture any sound and incorporate it into your music.

In the studio

In the studio or on the road, the PSR-E473 gives you so many ways to create great musical ideas. Keep things simple by using the 61-note real weighted piano keys to record notes straight into your DAW onboard effects. Or dive into the detail of layered synth tracks with our best-sounding synthesis engine ever, Groove Creator, and full DAW control. This is how you make music.

On stage

Explore vast sound worlds and create real music with this keyboard.
