Topic: My DGX670 After Two Years

[Graham UK]

My DGX670 is now approaching me owning it for two years and it still surprises me with its sound quality and build quality for its lowish ! price. 
Did not initially expect it to be so good.
Pianos I find excellent and with a key bed that's a joy to play.
Possibly one of my best buys over my 60 keyboard buying years.
My personal opinion of course....

So glad you are satisfied with it Graham! Enjoy!

Hi, my name is Massimo and I live in Italy, I also have a DGX670.

Have you noticed that the default organ voices don't load the leslie (only those defined as accompaniment)? They can certainly be modified and saved in the user folder but they have been generated predefined so that with the left pedal there is a vibrato-type modulation but not the famous Leslie typical of Hammond organs. At least I hope it's not just my keyboard that behaves this way...... Many thanks and best regards.

Hi Massimo,

I think the answer to your question can be found in the DGX-670 Reference Manual (section "Assignable Functions", page 77). See the attached screenshot.

With (Organ) Super Articulation Voices ("S.Art!") the Rotary Speaker effect is already included in the wave samples. To switch the effect for S.Art Voices (see also Voice List in the DGX Data List), you need to assign the Pedal function Articulation 1 or 2 (NOT "Organ Rotary Slow/Fast").

For organ voices where an organ effect such as "RotarySp1" is applied, please see "Applying Voice Effects", page 47 in DGX-670 Owner's Manual as well as "Editing Effect Parameters", from page 68 in DGX-670 Reference Manual.

If you don't have the Reference Manual, you can download it here:

By the way, it should be mentioned that the DGX-670 does not have/support any “Organ Flutes” voices. That's why you unfortunately cannot use corresponding User Voices (file type ".org") from other models (e.g. Genos/Tyros/PSR-S/SX models) on the DGX-670.


Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Chris

Hi!

it's an awesome instrument for the bucks, quite amazing indeed.
And I have no idea why the keyboard feeling on the DGX 670 is much better than on my ARIUS YDP 144
(or at least both me and my brother do prefer it)

May us all have fun and peace playing music!

A superb instrument overall....certainly BEST Bang for the buck.....
