YC73 73-Key Stage Keyboard

The Yamaha YC73 brings together expressive acoustic and electric pianos, vintage combo organs, rich orchestral instruments like strings and brass, and a wide palette of dynamic synth sounds—all in a performance-ready, compact 73-key stage keyboard. Powered by Yamaha’s advanced Virtual Circuitry Modeling (VCM), the YC73 delivers one of the most realistic analog organ experiences available, enhanced by a comprehensive selection of high-quality instrument voices and effects.

Tailored for gigging musicians, the YC73 features a 6-octave, weighted and balanced keybed that feels natural across a range of sounds. Hands-on controls, including drawbars, let players shape their tones directly without diving into menus. Though rooted in classic sound, the YC73 is built with modern digital capabilities, offering deep customization, seamless sound switching, and USB audio/MIDI integration for easy recording and playback.
