This high-end digital piano is as convenient as ever, while still providing a professional-level piano sound and touch. Feel the weight of a grand action with key counterweights on the CLP785’s GrandTouch keyboard with real wood keys. The live-sampled CFX grand and Bosendorfer Imperial grand voices are further enhanced through powerful Spruce Cone speakers. And with the brand new touch sensor control panel that hides the text display when the piano is turned off, the CLP785 is one of the sleekest Clavinovas yet.

Experience the Resonance of a Grand Piano

When performing on a grand piano, the sound created by the vibrations of the strings reverberates throughout the entire body of the instrument, creating a powerful resonance that can be heard and felt by the pianist and audience. Yamaha creates this same effect with their Virtual Resonance Modeling technology (VRM). VRM synthesizes the reverberating relationships between the strings, dampers, soundboard, and piano rim for an authentic grand piano sound in the Clavinova. New with the CLP-700 series, VRM even produces the subtle sounds of dampers being lifted off the strings when the sustain pedal is depressed, adding even more detail to the rich piano sound.

Key Counterweights

On an acoustic grand piano, the keys are constructed with built-in counterweights that provide a better balance in the key action which allows the pianist to have a more accurate control over the dynamics and articulation of their performance. Yamaha places similar counterweights into the keys on the GrandTouch keyboard of the CLP785, letting the pianist achieve that same disciplined control. This Clavinova provides an amazing grand piano response that benefits the technique of players of any level.

Grand Piano Response Damper Pedal

The CLP875 features Yamaha’s GP Response damper pedal, which reproduces the same resistance felt on the damper pedal of an acoustic grand. This resistance allows the pianist to achieve half-pedaling, which is used to make minor chordal changes, or to shift the tone and depth of the sound throughout the performance.
