The flagship model of the PSR-I series, the PSR-I610 features authentic Indian instrument Voices, auto-accompaniment Styles, and a Riyaz function. Equipped with powerful 12 W built-in speakers, a modulation wheel, a foot controller input, and a mic input, this is the perfect model for performing.

Authentic Indian Content and Amazing Expressive Capabilities

In addition to high-quality pianos and other world instrument Voices, the PSR-I610 features 50 Indian instrument Voices and 70 Indian Styles (auto-accompaniments), covering a diverse range of Indian music.

Super Articulation Lite captures the expressive nuances of Indian instruments, including Bansuri vibrato and Santoor tremolo. Additionally, the PSR-I610 allows musicians to delve deeper into Indian music with features like the "Riyaz" Tabla/Mridangam and Tanpura function and the Raga/Geetam option, helping them convey mood and emotion in their music.

Designed for Live Performance

With powerful built-in speakers (12 W x 2) ideal for live performances, and a microphone input for singing along, musicians can perform anywhere without needing a separate PA system (microphone sold separately). Alternatively, musicians can connect to a PA system for more power and enjoy high-quality sound through the independent outputs (L/L+R, R).

The PSR-I610 captures the subtle nuances of a musician's playing through its Pitch Bend and Modulation wheels, Portamento button, and an optional expression pedal (sold separately) connected via the foot controller input, giving musicians greater expressive control.

Transform Inspiration Into a One-of-a-Kind Performance

Musicians can use the looper function to record and play back phrases repeatedly, layering notes as they go, and combine with Styles to create their own solo performance.

The Auto Chord Play function plays the specified chord progression automatically, giving musicians more freedom for left-hand wheel and panel operations, as well as providing flexibility for creative performances.

When creating phrases, musicians can use the Quick Sampling function to expand their performance by looping the assigned sounds from any sound source or even recording their own voice to assign to the four Sampling Pads.

Voice

With 927 musical instrument Voices, musicians can play a single instrument sound, layer a second Voice (Dual Voice), or split the keyboard to play different Voices with their left and right hands (Split Voice).

Style

Musicians can play along with 392 different types of automatic accompaniment just by playing chords with their left hand. They can take their playing to the next level with Smart Chord and Auto Chord Play options.

Riyaz

Musicians can use the rhythm patterns of Tabla/Mridangam and Tanpura to accompany performances or practice Ragas.

Song

Includes 75 lesson songs - from Raga scales and Geetam to Western classics - and allows musicians to practice a variety of songs with step-by-step instruction.

Easy-to-Use UI

Panel buttons, including Category and Registration Memory buttons, combined with the LCD screen for better visibility offer improved playability and a stylish appearance.

Sound Control

A wide variety of effects – including Motion Effect, Live Control Knob for assigned effects and filters, Mega Boost and India EQ - add individuality to performances.

Supported Free Apps

Rec’n’Share lets musicians easily record their performances and upload them to social media, while MIDI Song to Style converts MIDI song files into auto-accompaniment Style data.

Connection

Musicians can get even more out of the PSR-I610 by connecting external gear (sold separately). Mic Input, Foot Controller Input, USB TO DEVICE, and USB TO HOST ports are ready to go.
