Yamaha PSS-170 Electronic Musical Keyboard PortaSound Voice Bank Vintage EUC
08 Nov, 2015
Portable Classic FM Synthesis
So, you want an FM synth but can't afford higher end models? This might be the keyboard for you.
While it's not very customizable, it has ALOT of patches which cover a variety of sounds. Furthermore, It's small size, coupled with a battery option makes it truly portable. The PSS-170's quirky 80s digital interface will make learning it fun, although ultimately limiting. With that said, there's a lot that can be done here including keyboard basics such as portamento and complete drum and rhythm programs built in.
Pros:
Cool FM sounds
Built in drum and rhythm patterns with tempo control
Portable size
Many patches
Portamento
Tremelo
Sustain
Headphone output
Cons:
Small keys
Sounds not customizable
No midi
Overall Rating: Recommended.
If you're seeking FM sounds similar to early 90s PC games (Sound Blaster) and even Sega Genesis/MegaDrive games, this is a good place to start. While a basic keyboard, this is a great keyboard for quirky projects or to add on to a larger synth arsenal.
