BRASS is a new kind of virtual instrument: a software recreation of the trumpet, saxophone, and trombone. This software allows you to play instruments like a professional performer would do: same control, flexibility, and expressiveness (without the years of training it takes to do so). It gives you instant and constant creation. Brass is so dynamic and easy-to-use that you will never go back to flat sampled riff libraries ever again.

Traditional craftsmanship meets modern technology. These Carbon fiber bows offer the same response, balance, playability and tone as pernambuco without the cost and fragility.

Exceptional durability, natural feel, and outstanding cost performance make this perfect for the skilled or advancing violinist.

For the more serious musician in your life, start them off right with the DGX205. It features 76 keys, double the power of the next model down and a professional pitch bend wheel for more expressive playing of brass and string instruments. The larger keyboard, important for professionals, is also valuable for aspiring musicians. In fact many music teachers encourage new students to get a keyboard that will grow with their needs.

The DGX-305 is the first model in the Portable Grand series to offer high-capacity SmartMedia™ storage, opening the door to instant access to hundreds of songs that you record or download and the ability to add new Style content, keeping you happy with your purchase for years to come and striking a nice balance between cost and features.

It has 76 piano-style keys, high resolution stereo piano sample, USB computer connectivity, a large bitmapped LCD screen capable of displaying notation and lyrics for songs, and lots more!
