A World of Sounds & Grooves
The PSR-SX600 provides high-quality music experiences with rich, realistic voices including a beautiful grand piano. With Styles, you can play music in a wide variety of music genres from around the world and using SmartChord lets you use these professional backings with just one finger. You can even use a microphone (sold separately) to sing along with your performance through the built-in speaker system.

DSP Effect
DSP (Digital Signal Processor) feature built into the PSR-SX600 provide high-quality effect types, such as real distortion and reverb. You can also apply the DSP effects independently to specified parts, such as guitar, allowing you to play the keyboard dynamically with a distorted guitar sound, or sound like you are playing in a concert hall.

World Content
The PSR-SX600 features a palette of regional contents for Brazil, China, and Africa. Enjoy supreme sound and musical experience with authentic Brazilian Strings, “Cavaquinho (S.Art)”, African local styles using Talking Drum “AfricanBigKit”, and Chinese style “KungFu”. Let your music take you to new places.

High Quality Output
The audio output of the PSR-SX600 has been completely overhauled with a focus on delivering the highest quality sound from your keyboard. The new Digital Audio Converter (DAC) provides high quality defined sound across a wide frequency range, ensuring the PSR-SX600 always cuts through the mix.

Performances Worth Sharing
The PSR-SX600 gives you professional expressive functions to enhance your performance; use Multi-Pads to add loops and phrases to compliment the accompaniment, use cutoff to filter the sound in real-time, or use the new Unison & Accent to morph Styles to your performance. Then, why not use the free Rec’n’Share app to capture and share high quality sound and video of your performance with a single tap.

Unison & Accent
The powerful Unison & Accent function gives you expressive and nuanced control over Style playback, letting you create various musical variations in the accompaniment. With the Unison function turned on, you can play a melody and have it reproduced in unison (i.e., the same melody is played by multiple instruments) or tutti (i.e., all parts are played at the same time) —expressively enhancing your performance and letting you create dynamic phrases. With the Accent function turned on, accents are automatically generated by adding notes to Style playback according to your playing strength (or accents you play). This allows you to temporarily change or interrupt the regular rhythm patterns.

Style Section Reset
When playing Styles, easily jump to the beginning of the bar by pressing the [RESET/TAP TEMPO] button. A valuable feature for accompanying singers or performing music with varying time signatures.

Rec‘n‘Share
Rec‘n‘Share allows you to record audio and video along with songs from your music library and then share your performances with the world. It digitally enhances the way you practice, record and perform music.
