| Graded Soft Touch Keyboard |
| Just as on an actual piano, the lower keys are heavy in
touch and the higher keys are light, with soft touch of
digital keyboard for beginners. |
| |
| Amazingly Realistic Sounds |
| Yamaha's highly acclaimed Sweet! and Cool! Voices
deliver incredibly natural and dynamic sound. Use the Pitch
Bend wheel, and hear these Voices--especially the Sax and
Trumpet--truly come alive! |
| |
| Cool! and Sweet! Voices |
| Cool! Voices reproduce the subtlest shades of the
original sound of electric instruments. Sweet! Voices
provide delicate nuances, such as the vibrato of wind and
brass instruments. |
| |
| Easy Song Arranger |
| In addition to each song's default style, you can select
any other style to play the song with the Easy Song Arranger
feature. This means that you can play a song that is
normally a ballad, for example, as a bossa nova, as a
hip-hop tune, etc. You can create totally different
arrangements by changing the style with which a song is
played. You can also change the song's melody voice and the
keyboard voice for a complete change of image. |
| |
| Performance Assistant Technology (P.A.T.) |
| Play along with a song on the instrument's keyboard and
produce a perfect performance every time ... even if you
play wrong notes! All you have to do is play on the
keyboard--alternately on the left- and right-hand ranges of
the keyboard, for example--and you'll sound like a pro as
long as you play in time with the music. |
| |
| Music Database plus External Files |
| You want to play music in your favorite style, but
you're not sure how to select the best voice and style for
the type of music you want to play ... simply select the
appropriate style from the Music Database. The panel
settings will automatically be adjusted for the ideal
combination of sounds and style! Furthermore, this
instrument allows Music Database files transferred from a
computer or stored on a USB flash memory device. These files
can be used in the same way as the internal Music Database. |
| |
| USB TO HOST Terminal |
| Dive in and take advantage of the wide world of computer
music software. Connections and setup are exceptionally
easy, and you can play back your computer recorded parts
with different instrument sounds - all from a single
instrument. |
| |
| Portable Grand Button |
| Playing piano is fast and easy with Yamaha's Portable
Grand function. One dedicated button brings up a great
sounding piano, stunningly rich and authentic in its sound
and exceptionally responsive to your playing touch, as well
as setting up the keyboard to play as a piano. |
| |
| Yamaha Education Suite (Y.E.S.) |
| Yamaha Education Suite (Y.E.S.) is an advanced set of
helpful learning tools built into the instrument, letting
you teach yourself how to play and perform. Y.E.S. helps you
master a song with easy lesson steps. Each lesson can be
done in isolation with either your left hand or right hand,
or both. |
