The new CLP-800 series incorporates several new technologies in every step of the process, to replicate the complex interactions that occur inside a grand piano and offer the pianist an experience that is unprecedented in a digital instrument.
CAPTURING YOUR EXPRESSION
Grand Expression Modeling produces now even more nuances of tone depending on the players technique.
PEDALS
The new GrandTouch pedals in the CLP-800 series not only look similar to grand piano pedals, but also allow players to feel the same resistance in their feet as on a grand piano when they depress and release them.
OUTSTANDING PIANO SOUND
The CLP-800 Series is equipped with a new tone generator chip developed by Yamaha, with higher computing power, that delivers our highest-quality, most beautiful piano voices to date. It features voices of two world-renowned concert grand pianos, the CFX, Yamaha’s top-flight concert grand piano, and the Bösendorfer Imperial, with its renowned Viennese sound.
The CLP-835 is also equipped with the voices of 2 fortepianos, the predecessor to the modern piano, played in the times of Mozart and Chopin.
MORE REALISTIC RESONANCE
CLP-800 Series pianos reproduce a richer, more natural resonance than ever before, thanks to its new tone generator chip paired with its groundbreaking technology, Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM). VRM creates a richly varied sound by simulating the complex sympathetic tones created when the vibrations of the strings are propagated to the soundboard and other strings, corresponding to the timing and intensity of key playing and pedaling.
