Yamaha PSR-SX720 Professional Keyboard

Yamaha PSR-SX720 Arranger Keyboard — Flagship Sound, Expressive Control

The Yamaha PSR-SX720 arranger keyboard brings flagship-level sound to a portable 61-key instrument. Inside this model sit over 1,300 high-quality Voices, 450 diverse Styles, and 128-note polyphony. A central 7-inch touchscreen, FSB key action, and assignable Live Control knobs put every parameter within reach on stage or in the studio. Players seeking detailed sound design, arranger power, and immediate real-time control in one instrument will find what they need here.

What Sets This Arranger Apart

Super Articulation Plus (S.Art+) Voices reproduce authentic instrument nuances like guitar string scratches and saxophone note slides without manually switching patches. Crossfade Portamento smooths pitch transitions. With Style Dynamics Control, backing band intensity shifts from pianissimo to fortissimo using just one Live Control knob.

Sound Engine and Voice Library

Driven by Yamaha's AWM stereo sampling engine, the sound library boasts 128-note polyphony for complex arrangements. You'll find 1,377 panel Voices, 56 drum and SFX kits, and 480 XG-compatible Voices, plus 9 S.Art+, 252 Super Articulation, 55 Organ Flutes, and 54 Mega Voices.

• Polyphony: 128 notes — sustain dense arrangements without voice dropout
• Explore a voice library of over 1,300 Voices, including piano, EPs, organ, brass, strings, guitar, and synth for any genre.
• Sound Generation: AWM Stereo Sampling — captures stereo instrument character

Keyboard Feel and Performance Control

The FSB (Future System Basic) key action delivers a semi-weighted feel with heavier initial resistance and increased key travel, making piano expressive while staying light enough for organ palm slides. Initial Touch adds velocity-sensitive dynamics across the 61-key range.

• Keyboard Type: Touch Sensitive, 61 keys — velocity responds to playing intensity
• Key Action: FSB with Initial Touch — semi-weighted feel for piano, organ, and synth
• Pitch Bend: Joystick controller — bend and modulate pitch in real time

Connectivity and I/O

Standard 6.3 mm Jack outputs feed a PA or audio interface, while a front-mounted 6.3 mm headphone jack supports private practice. MIDI IN and MIDI OUT on five-pin DIN ports let the SX720 act as a controller or sound module.

• Connect microphones, guitars, controllers, or pedals via 3.5 mm Jack, 6.3 mm Jack, MIDI IN, and two pedal inputs.
• Outputs: 6.3 mm Jack L/R, 6.3 mm Headphone, MIDI OUT — route to PA or external modules
• Bluetooth: Not included — wired USB MIDI and 5-pin DIN handle connectivity

Who This Keyboard Is Built For

The SX720 is ideal for gigging soloists, band keyboardists, and serious hobbyists needing an arranger workstation that also serves as a stage instrument. Live performers benefit from the Chord Looper, 16-track MIDI recorder, and Playlist system. Home producers gain access to 450 Styles and the EXPANSION EXPLORER app.

Part of the Genos Family Heritage

As part of the Genos family, the PSR-SX series inherits workflow, touchscreen interface, and Super Articulation technology developed for Yamaha's flagship arranger workstations. The SX720 brings that lineage to a more accessible price tier.
