Piano Sound
The Clavinova CSP Series harnesses the expertise of Yamaha’s industry-leading engineers, who study the behavior of the piano when being played. This behavior is converted into an algorithm and paired with a high-powered tone generator chip to actively recreate a truly expressive sound experience.
- Grand Expression Modeling is not just the playback of a recorded piano sound, but a nuanced sound with tonal variations that responds to the way you play. The sound produced in an acoustic grand piano varies depending on the interplay of the hammers, dampers, and strings, creating a limitless range of tonal expression. When playing softly, the piano produces a more mellow and warm tone, which becomes more brilliant as you play louder and faster. Grand Expression Modeling brings this powerful acoustic experience to the CSP Series.
- Virtual Resonance Modeling recreates the resonance present throughout the whole body of an acoustic grand piano, producing a rich reverberation of sound that envelopes both the player and listeners. VRM uses advanced calculations from the state of each string of the piano’s 88 notes along with the timing and depth of the damper pedal. These nuances allow for a widely varied level of expression from the Clavinova.
