- It's raining outside so lets stay inside and demonstrate the style features of the Yamaha Tyros and PSR arranger keyboards. We will demonstrate style variations, intros and endings. To finish off there will be a tutorial on how to create almost limitless style variations.

I loved it Woody.I play the S770 and couldn't find any examples of exactly how to use the assignable knobs. I've been using the right one to change the reverbs. You just showed me how to do so much more. This was very useful to me. Thank you!
Just made it simple, easy to watch and practical. That is the way to go! Thanks
thanks bro!
Excellent! Just the level for a new owner of one of these fabulous machines. Thank you muchly.
thanks for the feedback, glad you liked the vid and good luck with your machine. :)
Nice friendly presentation Woody, I like your style! I own this very keyboard but not so keen on manuals so your demos help me out big time . Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge, talent and skills helping others.
thanks for taking the time to comment, I appreciate the positive feedback. cheers!
Awesome demo! I enjoyed watching it!
cool, thx!
Brilliant demo mate. Keep em coming really enjoy them
Thanks😄😄
thanks Tony, more to come.
Love your demos you make them very interesting
kind of you to say so, appreciate the comment george.
If weather is raiing - let's play music! ))) Really great, Woody! I like it! Thank you!
well said, best wishes!
Thanks, good demo. I am thinking of getting this to assist my song writing.
Amazing sounds !
Fab demo Woody, particularly demystifying the Live Control knobs. I think the main feature of this series is that they are FUN to explore and play. They put a smile on your face. Agreed that they're not Nord etc pro build quality, but for the money, they are a blast.
we agree, MrC :)
i have this keyboard and i agree this keyboard is very user friendly and the sounds and styles have good clarity for the price
i love your vids im actually getting a psr s970 soon
CoRydaGinGer ...i sale you my one...is brand new..if u want
Great stuff for me, considering buying one!
Good demo
Great vid thanks mate !
I also using PSR S970. Its really helpful to me.
Can you please send me a video on how to record and playback and hear everything you recorded. This is my what app contacts: 0736643560
Thank you. Good Job!
great for gigs down the shopping mall at Christmas....
If you could do a tutorial on how to download registrations etc. from a USB stick into the PSR s770-970. The manual is delightfully vague on this important basic procedure.subscribed 🇦🇺🎹🤗
Excellent tutorial how will I splits the voice lets say right hand trumpet and left to fill in with a guitar sound
Superb Demos!! Love your channel Have an S970 myself and started using it again after a long break after viewing your channel!! The external monitor attachment looks super. How did you do it?
hi and thanks for the comment, check my other vids, I made one about the external monitor.
thank you. :)
Thnx sir.it was nice tutorial.im having psr 3000.which has got a display issue n no expansion pack features n not more inbuilt memory.
I cant buy a new as i lack of money.
what is the keyboard stand? you can put monitor there?
Pls help me to hear drums after I have recorded on the Psr s970 using the straight forward method, pls help me. What is it I do not do right? I try all the time to follow video instructions but most of the time a playback has no drums and it frustrates me a lot. Help me pls.
When playing back what I recorded I do not get drums playing... Pls help me. Maybe there is something I do not do well even when I follow the video example
good
I love your videos. Awesome, I just placed an order for 970, I have a query, how to connect a external monitor to the keyboard? :)
hi doc, i did a video on this topic, search the channel! and congrats!
Very nice thanks. Just can't make my mind up, do I get the PSR s970 or Roland EA7?
looking forward to your next demo.
only seen the EA on youtube. doesn't sound as good to me. and remember there is an established tyros/psr community with thousands of downloadable styles and other resources. roland, not so much.
Thanks for you input, your right psr/tyros do have a large community . Roland EA7 just looks great, i also just seen it on youtube. thanks .
Great videos Woody, where do yo get the stand, I like it your setup, and I want it.
thanks, more info on stand here -

Dear Woody - Does the PSR S-970 have any background effects such as birdsong/wind etc anywhere ? Thank you - excellent demo's - Best wishes
yeah, it's got all the standard sound effects, plus dozens of extra patterns that fit the theme of the styles, such as shouts, flamenco hand claps etc.
Dear Woody - Thank you very much. I do apologise as I should have been clearer....I have bought an S-970 and am slowly getting used to it but don't know how to access them and listen, some I would like to incorporate into some melodies eventually....the owner manual isn't helping me but it is early days !! how do I access them ? can you advise me please. Thank You
Now that is close to jazz
How did you set up the larger screen behind the kb display?
attached with velcro to the stand
THe Tyros is the best keyboard Yamaha ever made
Hi! I agree with you! and in fact I have the T5 at 76!
Hi thx for the video I have a question can Yamaha psr 970 can record midi?
sure. it has a built-in midi-sequencer. i plan on doing a demo in the future.
Can you put a video clip on how to write lyric and put into there. And when you play midi song it will highlight the lyrics.. thanks!!
i no longer have this keyboard, sorry! but I'm sure it's described in the manual.
My psr s970 the microphone doesn't work...can u do a demo from A-Z only for microphone? How we plogin ...or maybe the microphone is shit?? I need to shauld to hear something...or maybe is from setings? I don't know...
haven't tried that feature yet, maybe cable wired wrong if you are using xlr microphone
Should you ever get to grips with DJ Styles, on second page of Dance styles, I should love a teach-in, especially in working out the chord sequences for the different variations. I reckon you need these if you're going to do anything meaningful with your right hand!
Hi Alan, I agree it is a challenge knowing what to play when the keyboard is playing chords for you. You can check out my "one style from every category" video to see how I handle this... I've got a hunch the chord sequences are listed in the Yamaha data reference manual.
Holy crap what is that last chord progression? I've been jamming along with it on my A1 for ages!
without watching, i wonder if i was playing something based on Streetlife?
I'd like to know how to use the backing tracks that are inserted through a usb stick
i don't have mine to hand, but you can read about that in the manual, it was quite simple to do
Where did you learn to improvise? My piano teachers are tied to sheet music don't seem receptive to teaching improvisation....?
learn your scales and arpeggios, then ability to play by ear and improvise will just come naturally. that's the most fun aspect of playing imho.
exactly how I was taught years ago. It seems these instruments really lend themselves very well for it, even if you were classically trained. I have what I see as a crass over teacher who combines reading misic as is and then how to improvise with thiis by changing each subsequent verse. It is a fun way to play music and Im finding it not so difficult to learn because I can read music and know the theory. I can see endless possibilities with it. my teacher calls herself an arrarger worstation keyboard teacher, rather than a piano teacher, which she teaches as well but in a different way. 'm really a guitarist so it is new to me.
sir how to connect Samsung tab
rocken in the pocket bro
Hey, so, do audio styles feature a real drummer? I am confused on that point. ;)
hi kelli, yes i think some of the styles feature real drummer, bass, guitar, are they called audio styles, don't remember. but there are only a handful of them, the rest are midi-instruments.
Waouuhhh Big screen for large view ... hummmmm
Hi Woody, can you advise please, I'd love to start to play keyboard but what I don't want is styles, I want great voices, plenty of synth sounds, I'm an 80s chap, good drum sets that I can also use to create/step/record my own backing and also the bass lines etc. what I don't want are the cheesy styles. The question is, what brand/make of keyboard would you buy, baring in mind I only have around £600 to spend? I realise that styles just may well come as part of the package but I'd rather not pay the extra to have them included, I'd much rather be paying for quality sounds and build quality, it's a real shame most keyboards these days look so plastic and cheap. Many thanks.
jake, the jd-xi comes to mind, great 80s sounds, drums and sequencer. built-in patterns or create your own of course. but it's plastic and cheap build quality! plenty of vids on my channel, cheers
Woody! Blimey, I never thought you'd respond so quickly let alone respond at all, I've recently discovered you and I am blown away by your skills as a pianist and the knowledge and experience you have. I'm certainly going to start and go through all your vids, thanks so much, Jacobitejake is a nick name, it's David really :) Just being curious, do you mind me asking what you do for a living, or have you won the lottery :)
I've just had a look at it on amazon, looks nice, do you know if you can create your own arpeggio patterns with it, I've looked at the yamaha psr keyboards but they all seem to have fixed pattern arpeggios. Thanks. Cancel that, I've just watched some more vids you've done and yes you can, it looks a great little synth, cheers.
Is your monitor hooked up to your PSR?
yes, see separate video about that.
Woody Piano Shack
did you select items, by touching the screen (it's a touchscreen?)
obviously you live in Sweden, but you have no swedish accent ?
Nice review, but a lot of the sounds are cheesy IMHO.
Bart is creepy...
fixed on next video. thanks for pointing this out. :p
