The wide variety of Yamaha keyboards built to the highest quality requires buyers to carefully evaluate their needs and situation before making any purchases. As the first and most important consideration to keep in mind, buyers should evaluate their budget and music needs so as to identify the best Yamaha keyboard for the intended use. For instance, there is a wide variety of affordable Yamaha keyboards that come with the basic features suitable for recreational keyboard players and students as well. However, advanced keyboard players would be better served by more feature rich keyboards that mostly come at a higher price.
Size
Yamaha keyboards come in a variety of sizes in terms of the number of keys on each keyboard. Most of the keyboards usually come with the usual 88 keys while the new Piaggero series comes with a reduced number of keys totalling 76. The portable Yamaha keyboards also come with a reduced number of keys totalling 61. The main consideration, when choosing the number of keys, can either be influenced by portability or the available budget. The portable series with a reduced number of keys normally costs less than the other keyboards. However having a keyboard with all 88 keys present offers a better user experience and is highly recommended.
Touch Sensitivity
This is another feature that directly influences the user experience as well as the price of keyboards. Touch sensitivity refers to the capability of the keyboard to vary the sound from different keys by relying on the speed and force used to press the keys. On less expensive Yamaha keyboards, this feature is not present but users can still rely on playing their music as it should be with the correct pitch and duration. As the price increases, more feature including price sensitivity are added to the mix.
