A combination of time-tested craftsmanship, unrivaled expressive capabilities and unmistakable tone make the concert grand piano one of the most revered musical instruments in history.
The CLP Series captures the soul of this remarkable concert instrument in a digital piano that delivers grand piano performance in a more personal environment. From the feel of the pedals to the touch of the keyboard and the rich, resonant tone, the CLP Series provides an authentic grand piano experience that will inspire you to take your playing to new heights.
Real grand piano sound, just for you
With two world-renowned concert grand pianos available at the touch of a button, the CLP Series lets you choose the perfect piano tone for the music you want to play. Offering far more than just sampled sound, the CLP Series reproduces the expressive characteristics of these two unique instruments in meticulous detail.
The powerful tone of the acclaimed CFX
Yamaha's flagship 9' concert grand piano, the CFX offers sparkling highs and a powerful resonant bass with a sound that projects to the furthest reaches of any concert hall. The CFX was played by the winner of the prestigious International Chopin Competition in 2010 and has since gained recognition as one of the greatest concert grands of modern times.
The unmistakable sound of a Bösendorfer Imperial
Crafted in Vienna using traditional techniques exclusive to Bösendorfer, this legendary grand piano features a characteristic warm tone known as the "Viennese Sound", perfect for playing stately melodies from composers such as Brahms and Beethoven.
Specifications vary depending on model
More than just great sound
There is more to a great performance than sound alone; any pianist knows that playing well relies on everything from the touch of the keyboard to the feel of the pedals, and even the aesthetics of the instrument design. The CLP Series offers authentic keyboard touch and pedal feel together with a well-crafted modern design, giving you the feeling of sitting down to play at a fine grand piano.
The Clavinova CLP Series utilize Yamaha's acclaimed Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) technology to reproduce the resonance characteristics of the strings for every note on the grand piano keyboard in nuanced detail.
Acoustic touch and feel
Featuring models equipped with the newly-developed Natural Wood X (NWX) and Graded Hammer 3X (GH3X) keyboards, the CLP Series brings a new level of realism to digital piano performance. There are even fitted counterweights for precise control when playing delicately at low volumes and an escapement mechanism that reproduces the slight click felt when the keys of a grand piano are pressed gently. Just like an acoustic grand, every key is weighted differently; keys in the bass register have a heavier feel that gets progressively lighter as you move up the keyboard.
This passion for authenticity is also evident in the GP Response Damper Pedal, which constantly detects pedal pressure and return, applying them to note elongation and reverberation. The result is a dynamic range unmatched by other digital pianos in their class.
