Comparison
Roland FP-E50 vs Yamaha DGX-670
Both instruments combine weighted-key piano playing with accompaniment, but choose around the work you want to do. The DGX-670 documents a 16-track MIDI recorder alongside audio recording; the FP-E50 documents audio overdubbing, physical mixing controls and vocal processing. Roland has dedicated stereo outputs, whereas Yamaha uses its shared headphone/output connection. Both offer USB audio. The DGX is heavier and deeper, so include transport and stand fit in the decision. Published listening impressions disagree about the DGX speakers; audition at home-like volume and compare headphones. Neither an amplifier rating nor a sound count establishes a winner.
