GrandTouch™ Keyboard.

Yamaha's latest keyboards feature a wide resonant frequency range and faithful response to every nuance of movement, producing a wide range of expressive tones - from subtle to powerful - depending on the finger. of the pianist. The highly stable grand piano hammers reproduce the pleasant feedback when the hammer hits the strings, allowing for precise control of the tone. Synthetic ivory white keys are highly absorbent and synthetic ebony black keys are resistant to slipping even during prolonged play and give the feel of a real grand piano.

The GrandTouch keyboard with wooden keys once again affirms Yamaha's virtuosity in the use of wood for piano construction. Similar to grand piano keys, solid wood is cut from the best parts of a dried block of wood, making the keys more resistant to warping and warping than keys made from laminated plywood. The texture and wood grain on the surface of the keys creates a more grand piano-like feel.

Take advantage of your artistic expression.

When playing a digital piano, the area behind the keys can be seen as a challenge to full musical expression. This is because the area behind the keyboard is close to the fulcrum of the action. The closer you press the key to this pivot point, the less leverage you have and the more power you need to exert. The greater length of the GrandTouch fretboard gives the player HIGHEST leverage, allowing for greater expressive control, even in the back region of the fretboard. This is also the support length on the Yamaha S3X premium grand piano (as of April 2020) and the largest support length used on a digital piano.

88-key Linear Graded Hammer keyboard—the first digital piano keyboard with real weights on every key.

Each key on a grand piano has a different weight. This is because the strings for each note are a bit thinner and shorter in the high register, and thicker and longer in the bass register. Clavinova's 88-key Linear Graded Hammer keyboard is the first to faithfully replicate this sense of hierarchy with different weights and per-key returns. This provides a grand piano-like feel and response and allows players to understand more realistic keystrokes.

Counterweight key.

Counterweight is introduced into the keys of a grand piano to balance the weight of the hammer and provide more precise control when playing delicately at low volumes. Clavinova features carefully tuned counterweights to improve playability in pianissimo with lighter keystrokes and better key release during fast passages. Clavinova's keyboard has been fine-tuned for optimal balance, emphasizing the grand piano's great playability and response.

Clavinova keyboard escapement mechanism.

The Escapement mechanism in a grand piano helps to move the hammers away from the strings quickly, avoiding affecting the string vibration. This mechanism feels a soft "click" when the keys are lightly pressed.

The Clavinova keyboard with the Escapement mechanism recreates this feel at the back of the keyboard when pressed down. The keys are designed so that the "click" sound is only discernible when pressed very lightly on the keys, similar to the keys of a grand piano. These keyboards have been fine-tuned to create more friction that balances key looping and response without sacrificing performance.

GP muffler pedal.

Using the damper pedal subtly changes the tone of the piano and is essential to giving pianists all the expressive tools needed to convey their musical vision.

The Clavinova digital piano features a damper pedal that continuously detects pedal depth and allows the pedal to be pressed halfway, allowing the player to momentarily adjust the amount of stress and return, varying depth and character. properties of the piano sound.

The GP muffler pedal has grand piano-style weight and resistance, light at the start and heavier as the pedal gets deeper. It helps players get used to each subtle difference when pedaling.

Design philosophy.

The Clavinova premium digital pianos pride themselves on usability and versatility, and together with a sophisticated, classic design that blends compact form with modern aesthetics, has become the standard model for pianos. Contemporary electric piano. The crux of the Clavinova design concept is inspired by the way players feel when they sit in front of a Clavinova piano. Unnecessary elements are removed from the player's view to create a natural, realistic space, like sitting in front of an acoustic piano. This shows Yamaha's care and understanding for players practicing on the Clavinova, and performing on the grand piano - they can go on stage without stressing or worrying about everything. are all too familiar. Clavinova pianos are a part of every pianist's everyday life - boldly modern and available in a variety of colors to match any interior design or lifestyle.

Grand Expression Modeling (Simulates the sound of a Grand piano).

The interplay and interplay between hammers, mufflers, and strings inside a grand piano responds to every, even the slightest, artist's impact creating a multitude of nuances of expression. through tone. The force used can be understood as the control of the artist, not only in terms of intensity (strong/light/small) when playing and releasing the keys, but also in terms of speed and depth when pressing the keys. The Grand Expression Modeling introduced in the CLP-700 series interprets each distinct touch of the artist's fingertips into endlessly diverse tones, just like on a grand piano.

This allows for variations in the tone produced by pressing the keys to different depths and at different speeds, even when using techniques such as trills or legato or notes. more emphasis on the melody than the accompaniment. Grand Expression Modeling excels at faithfully reproducing the tonality generated by these techniques in many famous works. In Debussy's "Clair de Lune," the loose touch of the keys creates a transient tone that makes the melody even more vivid and striking. In Liszt's "Un Sospiro," the arpeggios accompaniment accentuates the melody without overpowering it, and the varied nuances of the melody make it sound like the vocals in a song without lyrics. The last part of Chopin's Nocturne uses trills, legato and other subtle techniques, fingers gliding over the keys to create a graceful, melodious melody just like love. bridge. Playing such pieces on a highly expressive piano allows the artist to learn the technique of playing and enjoy the full expressive pleasure of a painter, but through sound.

New Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial sound samples.

The grand piano sounds on the Clavinova were recorded from some of the world's most famous chamber grand pianos. One of them is the CFX grand piano, Yamaha's flagship chamber grand piano. Pianists around the world are captivated by the impressive, vibrant, expressive sound of the CFX in concert halls. Another chamber grand model chosen was the Imperial, the flagship model of Bösendorfer, a long-requested Viennese piano brand. The Imperial is known for its rich tone and natural, warm feel. Yamaha faithfully reproduces each characteristic of these chamber grand pianos by meticulously recording the entire tonal range of each key for all 88 keys, fine-tuning little by little to achieve the perfect tones. the most harmonious that each piano brings.

Virtual Resonance Modeling (Virtual Resonance Modeling).

One of the great things about grand pianos is the resonant vibrations created by the vibrations of the entire instrument. Clavinova pianos elaborately reproduce this full resonant vibration through a breakthrough technology known as Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM). VRM produces rich, rich sound by simulating the complex vibrations produced when string vibrations are transmitted to the soundboard and other strings, corresponding to the duration and intensity of key and pedal strokes. . The CLP-700 series pianos even reproduce the sound that the damper makes when they are lifted off the strings, in addition to recreating the resonance from the scaled string arrangement, strings, soundboard, and barrel. herd. The Clavinova piano allows you to enjoy the difference in every moment and the deep, deep vibrating sound of a grand piano.

Experience playing on a concert grand piano with enveloping sound, even with headphones on.

Binaural sampling - Ear sampling is a sampling method in which special microphones are placed on top of a mannequin at the same location as the pianist's ears to capture the piano sound exactly the way they sound in real life. economic.

We chose this method to impart the full, natural acoustics and resonance of an acoustic piano to the Clavinova piano. This helps pianists feel as if they are sitting in front of a grand piano, even when using headphones. The experience was so enjoyable that they forgot they were wearing headphones, no matter how long they kept playing.

On the CLP-700 series pianos, binaural sampling has been used for both the Bösendorfer Imperial and the Yamaha CFX. Yamaha achieves higher resolution binaural sound by using dedicated mannequin heads and model ears for sample recording.

We also developed the Stereophonic Optimizer function to achieve the same effect for piano effects. Stereophonic Optimizer technology reproduces the natural diffusion of sound in headphones almost like binaural sampling for piano sounds other than CFX and Imperial.

The sound of an antique musical instrument opens the door to the world of classical music.

The CLP-785/795GP* were the first Yamaha instruments to feature the sound of the fortepiano, the forerunner of the modern piano. The sound coming out of the fortepiano is simpler than that of a modern piano and dissipates much faster. Listening to the sounds of instruments played in the days of Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin composing music will shed light on their original intentions behind the notes on the page. This is a new opportunity to communicate with classical composers by playing antique imitation instruments of this period.

*These models are equipped with the four fortepiano sounds favored by Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven and Scarlatti.

The fortepianos pictured are in the collections at the Hamamatsu Museum of Musical Instruments.

Grand Acoustic Imaging (Simulates the sound of a grand piano).

When the pianist plays the grand piano, they make the whole body reverberate, and they are completely enveloped in the colorful tones created by the combination of many acoustic elements in the surrounding space. me. The artist is immersed in a pervasive and echoing sound. The CLP-785/775 delivers this sense of well-being thanks to Grand Acoustic Imaging technology. This latest sound measurement and design technology creates the same shape and sound field as that of a grand piano despite its compact size. We've optimally balanced and positioned the bass, mid, and high woofers to achieve the acoustic radiation and characteristic nature of a grand piano so that each sound that comes through the speakers sounds like it was coming from where corresponds to a real grand piano. The placement and balance of the speakers reproduces the sensation of hammers hitting the strings right in front of the artist, and the reverberation of the strings disappearing before them. We also used a transducer to achieve all the reverberation of the sound coming from the entire grand piano's soundboard, recreating the sense of depth when playing on a grand piano.

Yamaha's innovative speakers include Spruce Cones.

Drawing on experience from building both acoustic pianos and high-end loudspeakers, the Yamaha CLP-785/795GP cone uses pulp from the same spruce wood used as the acoustic piano's resonator board. As a result, when you press the keys, the feel of the sound is more natural, more like the feeling of playing a real piano.
