The Yamaha PSR-SX920 is a premium 61-key arranger workstation designed for musicians who want sophisticated accompaniment, expressive instrument sounds, built-in speakers and powerful performance features in one highly versatile keyboard.

Sitting towards the top of Yamaha's PSR-SX range, the PSR-SX920 brings technology influenced by the flagship Genos family into a more compact, self-contained instrument. With 1,587 preset Voices, 63 Drum/SFX Kits, 575 accompaniment Styles, Super Articulation2 technology, Super Articulation+ Voices, Style Dynamics Control and Chord Looper, it gives home players, entertainers and songwriters an enormous amount of creative flexibility.

Unlike Yamaha's flagship Genos2, the PSR-SX920 also has its own powerful four-speaker amplification system, so you can simply switch on and start playing without needing external amplification.

Whether you're upgrading from an older Yamaha arranger, performing live or looking for an inspiring keyboard for making music at home, the PSR-SX920 combines serious arranger technology with an interface designed to keep that technology accessible.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

The PSR-SX920 hits a particularly useful sweet spot in Yamaha's arranger range.

It offers genuinely advanced arranger features without requiring you to move all the way to the flagship Genos2. You get a huge library of sounds and accompaniment Styles, touchscreen operation, sophisticated articulation technology, Chord Looper, vocal processing and extensive performance controls — while retaining the convenience of built-in speakers.

For the home player, that means an instrument you can simply switch on and enjoy.

For the entertainer, it means registrations, Styles, microphone functionality and assignable controls that can form the centre of a complete performance setup.

And for the creative musician, it provides a remarkably quick way to transform a melody or chord progression into a complete arrangement.

DETAILED FEATURES & BENEFITS

1,587 Preset Voices

The PSR-SX920 provides an enormous selection of sounds, including 1,587 preset Voices, 63 Drum/SFX Kits and 480 XG Voices.

Its featured Voice library includes:

• 12 Super Articulation2 Voices
• 15 Super Articulation+ Voices
• 340 Super Articulation Voices
• 55 OrganFlutes Voices
• 82 MegaVoices
• 31 Sweet! Voices
• 87 Cool! Voices
• 149 Live! Voices

Rather than simply giving you hundreds of variations of similar sounds, Yamaha's Voice categories are designed to recreate different instrumental characteristics and playing techniques.

From acoustic instruments and orchestral textures to organs, guitars, synths and contemporary sounds, PSR-SX920 is designed to handle an exceptionally broad repertoire.

Super Articulation2 – Flagship Expression Comes to PSR-SX

One of the most significant developments in the PSR-SX920 is the inclusion of Super Articulation2 technology.

Previously associated with Yamaha's flagship arranger instruments, S.Art2 helps reproduce characteristic playing techniques and articulations automatically as you perform.

This matters because a convincing saxophone, guitar or other acoustic instrument isn't defined purely by its basic tone. Real players use slides, changes in attack, legato transitions and other performance techniques.

Super Articulation2 helps bring these details into your keyboard performance without requiring you to manually trigger every nuance.

Super Articulation+ Voices

The PSR-SX920 also introduces Super Articulation+ Voices.

These allow different instrumental articulations to be selected quickly using an assignable control.

Think of a string player changing between different playing techniques. Rather than loading a completely different sound and interrupting your performance, S.Art+ gives you a more immediate way of changing the character of the instrument.

The result is greater expression without making the keyboard harder to play.

Crossfade Portamento

Crossfade Portamento creates smooth transitions between notes.

This can be particularly effective with lead instruments and synthesiser-style sounds where sliding naturally from one pitch to another is an important part of the performance.

Instead of every note behaving like an entirely separate event, Crossfade Portamento can create a more fluid and expressive transition.

575 Accompaniment Styles

The PSR-SX920 includes 575 preset accompaniment Styles covering a huge variety of musical genres.

These comprise:

• 520 Pro Styles

• 49 Session Styles

• 6 Free Play Styles

Each Style effectively provides an interactive backing band that responds to the chords you play.

You can control the arrangement using:

• 3 Intros

• 4 Main Variations

• 4 Fills

• Break

• 3 Endings

There are also four One Touch Settings for every Style, providing appropriate keyboard Voice combinations without having to build each setup manually.

For home players this makes it incredibly easy to create a complete musical performance.

For experienced entertainers, the different sections provide the control needed to make an arrangement develop naturally throughout a song.

Style Dynamics Control

One of the PSR-SX920's most useful performance features is Style Dynamics Control.

Traditional arranger keyboards can sometimes make accompaniment feel relatively fixed. Style Dynamics Control allows you to adjust the energy and dynamics of the backing using a Live Control knob or suitable pedal assignment.

Pull the accompaniment back for a quieter verse, then increase the energy as you move into the chorus.

It helps the backing follow the emotional shape of your performance rather than simply playing at one intensity from beginning to end.

Double the Style Insertion DSP Power of the Previous Generation

Yamaha has increased the Style Insertion DSP capability compared with the preceding PSR-SX generation.

The practical benefit is more sophisticated effects processing within Styles, helping individual accompaniment parts sound more polished and better integrated.

It's the sort of improvement that matters particularly when you're listening to a complete arrangement rather than auditioning one instrument in isolation.

Chord Looper

The Chord Looper can record a chord progression and repeat it while you play.

That sounds simple, but it opens up several genuinely useful possibilities.

You can free your left hand to play two-handed keyboard parts, practise melodies over repeating harmony, experiment with arrangements or concentrate on improvisation without continually playing the accompaniment chords.

The PSR-SX920 can store up to eight chord sequences within each bank, and you can create additional banks containing your own progressions.

For performers, songwriters and practising musicians, Chord Looper can become one of those features you end up using far more often than expected.

Four-Part Keyboard Setup

The PSR-SX920 supports Right 1, Right 2, Right 3 and Left keyboard parts.

This allows sophisticated splits and layers.

For example, you might combine piano and strings across the right-hand area while assigning another sound to the left, or layer several complementary Voices to create a much larger performance sound.

Being able to save setups into Registration Memory means you don't have to rebuild these combinations every time you play.

7-Inch Colour Touchscreen

At the centre of the PSR-SX920 is a 7-inch, 800 x 480 colour touchscreen.

The touchscreen gives you direct access to the keyboard's sounds, Styles, mixer, registrations and extensive editing functionality.

For anyone upgrading from an older arranger dominated by physical buttons and nested menus, the graphical interface can make a substantial difference to everyday operation.

Importantly, Yamaha hasn't replaced all physical controls with the touchscreen.

The PSR-SX920 combines touch operation with dedicated performance buttons, knobs and an assignable joystick, giving you the benefits of both approaches.

Assignable Live Controls

During a performance, you don't want to dig through menus to find the parameter you need.

The PSR-SX920 therefore provides:

• 2 assignable Live Control knobs

• 8 assignable panel buttons

• 6 Home Screen shortcuts

• Assignable joystick

Frequently used functions can be placed where you need them, allowing the instrument to become increasingly personalised to your way of performing.

The Live Control knobs can also be used with functions such as Style Dynamics Control for immediate adjustment while playing.

Vocal Harmony & Synth Vocoder

For singing keyboard players and solo entertainers, the PSR-SX920 offers significantly more than accompaniment.

Connect a suitable microphone and you can access:

• 54 Vocal Harmony presets

• 20 Synth Vocoder presets

• Noise Gate

• Compressor

• 3-band EQ

• Vocal effects

This allows the keyboard to become part of your vocal signal chain as well as your instrumental setup.

For a solo performer trying to keep equipment and setup time under control, having accompaniment, keyboard sounds and vocal processing in one instrument can be a major practical advantage.

Microphone or Guitar Input

The dedicated input can be used for a microphone or guitar, expanding the PSR-SX920 beyond conventional keyboard performance.

This makes it particularly attractive for singer-keyboard players and musicians who want to incorporate another instrument into their setup.

Bluetooth Audio

Built-in Bluetooth Audio allows compatible devices to stream audio wirelessly to the PSR-SX920.

You can play along with favourite songs, practise with backing material or simply use the keyboard's speaker system to reproduce audio from a compatible device.

It's a small feature on paper, but one that can make everyday practice considerably more convenient.

Powerful Built-In Speaker System

Unlike Genos2, the PSR-SX920 doesn't require an external speaker system just to start playing.

It incorporates:

• Two 13cm speakers

• Two 2.5cm dome speakers

• (15W + 10W) x 2 amplification

This four-speaker arrangement makes the PSR-SX920 a genuinely self-contained instrument.

At home, you can simply switch on and play.

For larger performance environments you still have dedicated line outputs for connecting to suitable external amplification or a PA system.

500 Multi Pad Banks

The PSR-SX920 includes 500 Multi Pad banks with four Pads per bank.

Multi Pads can trigger musical phrases, rhythmic material and other performance elements, adding another creative layer beyond conventional Style accompaniment.

Audio Link functionality is also supported.

16-Track MIDI Recording

The internal MIDI recorder supports 16 tracks, allowing considerably more detailed arrangements than a simple one-pass keyboard recording.

Quick Recording makes capturing ideas straightforward, while Multi Recording and Step Recording provide greater control when building more involved arrangements.

For musicians who want to compose without immediately turning to computer software, this is a powerful built-in tool.

WAV & MP3 Audio Recording

The PSR-SX920 can record performances as both WAV and MP3 audio.

Audio recording can capture up to 80 minutes per song, depending on available storage.

This is ideal when you want an immediately playable recording of your finished performance rather than MIDI data that still depends on the keyboard's internal sound engine.

Audio playback also supports useful functions including Time Stretch, Pitch Shift and Vocal Cancel.

Expansion Capability

Your PSR-SX920 doesn't have to remain limited to its original factory content.

It provides approximately 2GB of expansion Voice capacity, while additional Styles can also be installed using internal memory.

Yamaha's Expansion ecosystem allows compatible additional sounds and Styles from different musical cultures and genres to be added to the instrument.

The Expansion Explorer app and Yamaha Expansion Manager provide further tools for discovering, installing and managing compatible content.

Approx. 4GB Internal Memory

The PSR-SX920 provides approximately 4GB of internal memory, giving you considerably more room for user data and additional content than earlier generations of arranger workstation.

Combined with USB flash-drive support, it provides plenty of flexibility for registrations, recordings and other user content.

WHO IS IT FOR?

The Yamaha PSR-SX920 is particularly well suited to:

• Serious home keyboard players

• Solo entertainers

• Singers who accompany themselves

• Experienced Yamaha arranger users

• PSR-SX900 owners considering an upgrade

• Players moving from older PSR-S or Tyros instruments

• Songwriters and composers

• Musicians who want automatic accompaniment without sacrificing detailed control

• Players who want premium arranger features but don't require a Genos2

• Musicians who prefer an instrument with built-in speakers

• Players who need a portable 61-key performance workstation

It's also surprisingly approachable for less experienced musicians.

Features such as Smart Chord allow accompaniment to be controlled using much simpler chord input, while One Touch Settings help remove much of the work involved in choosing suitable sounds.

That means you don't have to be an arranger expert to enjoy PSR-SX920 — but there is considerable depth waiting as your skills and requirements develop.

PLAYING STYLES & APPLICATIONS

Home playing – Built-in speakers and extensive automatic accompaniment make the PSR-SX920 an excellent self-contained home instrument.

Solo entertainment – Styles, registrations, microphone processing and extensive outputs make it particularly capable for the working entertainer.

Pop & rock – Modern drums, guitars, keyboards, synths and sophisticated backing arrangements cover an enormous amount of contemporary repertoire.

Jazz & standards – Expressive instrument Voices and flexible chord-recognition modes suit more traditional performance.

Ballroom & easy listening – Yamaha arranger keyboards have long been popular with players covering broad traditional repertoires.

Songwriting – Use Styles and Chord Looper to develop ideas quickly rather than programming every instrument separately.

Practice – Bluetooth Audio, Chord Looper, Smart Chord and audio playback functions provide numerous ways to practise with existing material.

Recording – 16-track MIDI recording plus WAV and MP3 audio recording allow ideas and complete performances to be captured directly on the keyboard.

Vocal performance – Vocal Harmony, Synth Vocoder and microphone processing make the PSR-SX920 particularly attractive for singer-keyboard players.

HOW IT COMPARES

Yamaha PSR-SX920 vs PSR-SX720+

The PSR-SX720+ shares much of the modern PSR-SX concept, including a 61-key FSB keyboard, touchscreen operation, Chord Looper and Style Dynamics Control.

The PSR-SX920 is the step-up choice for musicians who want the richer specification.

It offers 1,587 preset Voices compared with 1,377, 575 Styles compared with 450, approximately 2GB rather than 1GB of expansion Voice capacity, more internal storage and additional sound technology including Super Articulation2 Voices.

The PSR-SX920 also adds Vocal Harmony and Synth Vocoder functionality, additional outputs and a more powerful built-in amplification system.

Choose the PSR-SX720+ when you want the core modern PSR-SX experience at a lower level of investment.

Choose the PSR-SX920 when the keyboard is going to be your main instrument and the extra sounds, accompaniment, vocal and connectivity features will genuinely be used.

Yamaha PSR-SX920 vs Genos2

Genos2 remains Yamaha's flagship arranger workstation and takes the concept considerably further with a 76-key FSX keyboard with aftertouch, a substantially larger sound and Style library, extensive physical Live Controls and Yamaha's flagship sound architecture.

The PSR-SX920 has some important advantages of its own.

Its 61-key format is considerably more compact, it weighs less and — crucially for many home players — it has built-in speakers.

That makes PSR-SX920 an extremely attractive choice for someone who wants premium Yamaha arranger technology without the size, external amplification requirements or investment associated with Genos2.
