Yamaha P115 v DGX650 comparison

We have received many requests for a comparison of the P115 and the DGX650, very understandable as they are around the same price, and for people budgeting around the £500 mark they seem like good choices.

As I say in the video they are a very interesting two keyboards to compare because they are designed to do very different jobs, the P115 is a relatively simple keyboard designed to be portable therefore it's lightweight and and quite narrow. The DGX650 has a lot more to offer including a tutorial section, a recording studio and hundreds of musical accompaniments.

So if your question is 'which one is better for me?', then there is no right or wrong it simply depends on what you want to use if for. If you're in a small house or dormitory then the P115 would fit better, however if you're a songwriter or composer then the extra options on DGX650 makes that the better option.

Watch the video and see what you think.

The CLP625 also offers the new GH3X keyboard which Yamaha have been developing, and it now included synthetic ebony black notes as well as the synthetic Ivory white keys. These include 'escapement' an accuracy usually only found on grand pianos and Yamaha's 'smooth release' giving you a more realistic feel. You'll find, being the authentic ebony and ivory the keys offer you a more grippy feel, and less sloppy li...
