New to arranger keyboards
« on: January 21, 2024, 07:25:11 PM »
Hi All,

I'm 82 and never had an arranger keyboard before, though I did have a Korg M50 I bought in 2008 but never really got on with it. My keyboard skills are not that good but the PSR sx900 I've owned for just about two weeks makes me sound ok! Bought a course, anyway, to help me improve my playing.

I was pleased to find this forum!

You are the kind of buyer that really gets benefit from an arranger. Enough knowledge to get you started and it immediately makes you sound better. As you get deeper into it you will probably run into some roadblocks, but you are in the right place to get help on that.

Hello, Terence.

Congrats to have a yamaha arranger.
You can watch my YouTube videos - I have a lot of songs, mostly recorded with my own custom styles.
A lot of people like to watch the videos, learning how to use and how to play an arranger keyboard.

My YT channel is below my signature.
Welcome to this forum..

I did make a donation but not sure that I'm as yet listed as a supporting member... does it take a while? No rush, just wondering!

Hi Terence,

Joe Water's manages the Supporter list. I'm sure he will update your forum profile soon.

If your profile isn't updated in the next couple of days, please email Joe and send him a reminder and he will update your supporter status. Don't use the forum's private message system, because Joe isn't on the forum very much anymore and he won't see your message right away. Just email him directly.
