Grand Expression Modeling and GrandTouch pedals deliver expressive capabilities approaching those of a grand piano, along with the voices of two of the world’s finest grands: the Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial. Full range of digital piano functions, including Bluetooth audio.
TURN YOUR LIVING ROOM INTO A PERFORMANCE VENUE FOR A TOP-FLIGHT GRAND PIANO
With resonance and tone variation similar to a grand piano, the CLP-800 Series allows you to enjoy a wide range of expression. The keyboard and pedals faithfully respond to the player’s touch to provide a feel close to that of a grand piano. A full lineup of colors ensures that your piano will match your interior design.
A LONG LINEUP OF THE VOICES PIANO PLAYERS WANT Clavinova pianos feature voices of two world-renowned concert grand pianos. One of them is the CFX, Yamaha’s top-flight concert grand piano. Pianists around the world are enamored with the impressive, dazzling, richly expressive sound of the CFX in concert halls. Another sampled concert grand is the Imperial, the flagship model of Bösendorfer, a time-honored Viennese piano brand with an ardent following. |
EXPERIENCE THE SENSATION OF PLAYING A LIVING PIANO Players can experience the effects of Grand Expression Modeling by playing a song on a CLP-800 Series piano. For example, playing the many fast passages in Mozart’s “Piano Sonata No. 16 in C major”—a piece familiar to piano students—with the same light touch as you would on a grand piano results in a rolling, light-hearted tone, yet each note is clearly distinct from the others. When the same note is played repeatedly with the damper pedal down to sustain the sound, these pianos replicate the natural tonal variation produced by the physical phenomena in grand pianos by simulating the way the hammers strike strings that are already vibrating. |
ENVELOPED IN TEXTURED, CLEAR, GRAND-PIANO-LIKE SOUND The concept behind the acoustic design of the CLP-800 Series is to cause sound to radiate into the surrounding space as widely as it does from grand pianos. For example, the CLP-865GP/845/835/825 feature diffusers—a special mechanism for diffusing sound. The higher-end CLP-895GP/885/875 models replicate the rich grand piano sound with diffusers in addition to waveguides, Bidirectional Horns and cleverly placed and oriented speakers. |
KEYS AND PEDALS THAT ALLOW PLAYERS TO CREATE THE INTENDED SOUND WITH THE SAME FEEL AS A GRAND PIANO The GrandTouch and GrandTouch-S keyboards were designed around the concept of “a keyboard with the feel of a grand piano action,” with the goal of allowing pianists to feel the keyboard with their fingertips in the same way as they would when playing a grand piano, and from there to create exactly the sound that they are looking for. Specifically, these keyboards are notable for their responsiveness, offering everything from light, delicately nuanced tones to boldly powerful notes in answer to the strength with which the pianist plays the keys. |
ACOUSTIC PIANO-LIKE APPEARANCE This iteration of the CLP-800 Series features many gentle curves in the shape of the body to give the pianos a feeling of warmth and openness. Sitting in between the sweeping curves of the side arms of a CLP-875, for example, gives you the strong impression that you are playing a grand piano. |
SOUND SO GOOD THAT YOU FORGET YOU’RE WEARING HEADPHONES One advantage of choosing a digital piano is that you can play with headphones on to keep your surroundings quiet. However, many people may find that their ears become fatigued if they play with headphones on for too long. One of the main reasons for this is that sound played directly into the ears is completely different from the natural sound of an actual piano. |
A VARIETY OF SUPPORTIVE FUNCTIONS AND OPTIONS FOR PIANO PRACTICE CLP Series pianos feature 50 of the most famous classical pieces as well as 303 exercises by Hanon, Beyer, Czerny, and Burgmüller. Sheet music is also available for download and viewing on the Smart Pianist app. Try practicing with one hand at a time, or simply listen and enjoy. |
