    Why are some notes not heard when playing many notes at once on my Yamaha PortaTonee PSR-19 Electronic Keyboard?
    • B
      Benjamin CastanedaJul 26, 2025
      Your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard may have a limit on the number of notes it can produce simultaneously. Specifically, the PSR-19 can produce a maximum of 8 notes at the same time, not including rhythm sounds. Demo playback, automatic accompaniment, song accompaniment, and ad-lib features also contribute to this limit.
