Automatic piano patterns in left hand lend fun, authenticity and learning to songs.

Many of today's automatic piano keyboards have automatic left hand rhythm styles that use ONLY the piano sound in the TRADITIONAL musical patterns for the left hand. These patterns can be complex and tricky and can take years to learn and play in an accomplished way. By using automated versions of these patters, experienced players like me can learn and listen to new left hand pattern arrangements and novices can use them to do that too as well as have a lot more fun playing their songs in an authentic realistic sounding way. Here I play several tunes on such an automatic keyboard, the Yamaha E433 available online and at Sam Ash for around $300.
