CLP-400 Series

CLP-Series

Clavinovas expressive capabilities embody more than a century of piano craftsmanship skill and spirit. Yamaha believes that the true expressive capability of a grand piano lies in its seamless integration of sound, touch and pedals. Focus on any one of those elements individually and that capability is lost. Clavinova integrates all of these elements into a single instrument capable of reproducing the exact performance the player intends to play. Real Grand Expression (RGE) was developed by Yamaha using the skills and spirit of building acoustic pianos for more than a century. It represents thorough attention to design and includes many features that increase the joy of playing piano. We invite you to sit down at a Clavinova and experience it for yourself. Youll feel the true joy of playing a piano through your fingertips and your ears.

Sound Touch Pedals

Sound, touch, pedals. Perfectly integrated to give you the sensation of playing a grand piano. Real Grand Expression. This phrase embodies what is meant by Clavinova expressive capability. Not only the full realization of the sound, the touch and the pedals, but the application of technologies nurtured by crafting acoustic pianos to perfectly integrate these three elements into a single piano. A piano that will produce exactly the sound you want through the touch of the keys and the feel of the pedals. As you play, you will truly feel as though you are playing a grand piano.
The new RGE Sound Engine delivers the ultimate expressive capability for the CLP-series. Smooth Release delivers smooth variations of the tone according to the touch. 256-voice polyphony is in the top class of digital pianos.** String Resonance expresses the mellow sounds of the other strings resonating.
88-key Linear Graded Hammers * reproduce a unique weight for each key, a first for digital pianos. Experience real piano touch with the Natural Wood keyboard and synthetic ivory keytops. The GH3 faithfully reproduces the feeling of touching a grand piano.

Pedals

The GP Response Damper Pedal provides an operating feel just like that of a grand piano. Damper pedal with half pedal effect for best adjusted playing.
