The Yamaha PSS-E30, also known as the Remie, is a mini-keyboard designed specifically for young children to inspire them to play music. It is a highly portable and lightweight instrument that includes various educational features to make learning fun.
Key features
High-quality sounds: The keyboard comes with 49 high-quality Voices (46 instruments, 1 drum kit, and 2 SFX kits with 74 sound effects) to stimulate a child’s curiosity.
Educational quiz mode: A “Quiz” mode plays a sound and asks the child to guess which one it was. A more advanced mode challenges them to guess the intervals of different notes, helping them to develop their musical ear.
Accompaniment styles: It features 28 auto accompaniment Styles and the “Smart Chord” function, which allows a child to play musically pleasing chords with a single finger.
Built-in songs: The Remie includes 30 preset songs, which are well-known tunes for children to learn and enjoy. A free digital songbook is available for download.
Small, high-quality keys: The 37 mini-keys are designed for small hands, and are described as “HQ mini” (High-Quality mini) keys, based on the Yamaha reface series.
Portability: At just 1.2 kg, the PSS-E30 is very light and can be powered by four AA batteries or a USB power supply. This makes it easy for children to carry and use anywhere.
Convenient practice options: A headphone jack is included for quiet practice, and the volume can be limited to protect a child’s hearing.
