CFX & Bosendorfer Piano Voices
The Yamaha Clavinova pianos feature the exquisite voices of two of the world's most renowned grand pianos: the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial. The Yamaha CFX, known for its bright, powerful sound, provides a rich tonal palette with exceptional clarity and resonance, making it ideal for a wide range of musical genres. On the other hand, the Bösendorfer Imperial, with its warm, lush tones, offers a distinctly Viennese character, perfect for classical compositions and nuanced performances. These meticulously sampled voices bring the authentic sound and expressive capabilities of these legendary instruments into the digital realm, allowing Clavinova players to experience the grandeur and subtlety of two iconic pianos in one versatile instrument.
In total, the CLP865GP offers a choice of thirty-eight different instrument voices, any two of which can be layered together in 'Dual Voice' mode.
Grand Expression Modelling
Yamaha Grand Expression Modelling is a technology that makes digital pianos feel and sound more like real grand pianos. Imagine playing a piano and being able to hear and feel the subtle differences in sound depending on how hard or soft you press the keys. This technology captures those nuances, so when you play, it responds just like an acoustic grand piano would. It recreates the intricate details of how the hammers, strings, and pedals interact in a real piano, making the experience more realistic and expressive. Essentially, it helps digital pianos mimic the touch and sound of a traditional grand piano, giving you a richer and more authentic playing experience.
Yamaha GrandTouch pedals
Yamaha GrandTouch pedals on Clavinova pianos offer a realistic feel and dynamic control, closely mimicking the response of acoustic grand piano pedals. They enable precise control over sustain, allowing for varied note-holding and nuanced expression, which supports advanced playing techniques and intricate performances. These pedals enhance the overall expressive range, ensuring consistent, high-quality performance over time. This makes the Clavinova an excellent choice for both practice and professional use, providing an authentic and satisfying playing experience.
Virtual Resonance Modeling
Yamaha's Improved VRM (Virtual Resonance Modeling) is an advanced technology that enhances the realism of digital pianos by replicating the complex resonances and interactions found in acoustic pianos. In an acoustic piano, when you press a key, not only does that string vibrate, but it also causes sympathetic vibrations in other strings and the soundboard, creating a rich, resonant sound. Improved VRM simulates these interactions, allowing for a more dynamic and expressive playing experience. It takes into account factors like the timing and intensity of key presses and pedal usage, generating authentic reverberations and tonal variations. This results in a more natural and immersive sound, closely mimicking the experience of playing a high-quality acoustic grand piano.
A fully immersive concert grand experience—even with headphones
The CLP-865GP features binaural samples of the Yamaha CFX and Bosendorfer pianos. Binaural sampling is a method of sampling in which special microphones are placed on a mannequin’s head in the same positions as the pianist’s ears to capture piano sounds the way that they sound in reality. Yamaha chose this method to create the ambience and full, natural resonance of acoustic pianos in Clavinova pianos. This makes pianists feel as though they are sitting at a grand piano, even when they play with headphones on. The experience is so pleasant that they forget they are wearing headphones, no matter how long they continue to play.
Yamaha also developed the Stereophonic Optimizer function to achieve the same effect for the piano effects. Stereophonic Optimizer technology replicates the natural diffusion of sound in headphones nearly as closely as binaural sampling for the piano voices other than the CFX.
16-track Song Recorder
The Yamaha 16-track song recorder in Clavinova pianos enhances practice, composition, and performance by allowing multilayered recordings, enabling complex arrangements directly on the piano. It supports detailed practice by letting you playback and analyze performances and is a valuable tool for composers to experiment with different sounds and arrangements. Conveniently, recorded tracks can be saved, transferred, and integrated into broader production setups. Additionally, it allows for the creation of backing tracks or accompaniments for live performances, adding depth and professionalism. This recorder significantly expands creative possibilities for musicians at all levels.
USB Audio Recorder
This feature enables musicians to capture their performances and practice sessions without the need for additional equipment, ensuring convenience and portability. The recorded files can be easily transferred to a computer for further editing, sharing, or archiving, making it ideal for students tracking their progress, teachers preparing lessons, and performers creating demos. Additionally, the ability to listen to recordings helps players analyze and improve their technique, fostering continuous learning and development.
Compatible With Yamaha 'Smart Pianist' App
The Yamaha SmartPianist app is a versatile and user-friendly tool designed to enhance the digital piano experience. Available for smartphones and tablets, it allows players to control their Yamaha digital piano with ease, offering features like adjusting settings, selecting voices, and recording performances. The app includes a wide range of built-in songs and sheet music and can even analyse songs from your music library to create chord charts, helping you play along with your favourite tunes. With its intuitive interface and powerful functionalities, the SmartPianist app makes learning, practising, and performing more interactive and enjoyable.
