The appeal of the CLP-700 series
With the CLP-700 Series, the slightest variations in touch can be transformed into an infinite palette of sounds that perfectly reflect your individuality as a musician. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology, the CLP-700 Series is as expressive as a concert grand and offers a more captivating playing experience than ever before. You'll be surprised how good a digital piano can sound.
GrandTouch-S™ keyboard
Yamaha's latest keyboard offers a wide dynamic range and a realistic response to every nuance of the keystroke. This allows pianists to create a wide variety of sounds with their fingertips - from soft to powerful. The particularly durable piano hammers reproduce the reaction that pianists feel when the hammers strike the strings, enabling precise sound control. The keys made of white synthetic ivory and black ebony prevent slippage even during long performances and feel like a real grand piano.
The pressure point simulation of the Clavinova keyboards
The pressure point mechanism in a grand piano quickly moves the hammer away from the strings after it has struck them to prevent any interference with the strings. This mechanism creates a light click when the key is pressed very gently. With Real Grand Expression already giving the pianist a superior feel in terms of tone, touch and pedal response, we decided to develop a pressure point simulation that delivers outstanding playability, repetition and response without compromising performance. The Clavinova keyboard now has a pressure point mechanism that replicates the feel just before the end of the keystroke. It is designed to be felt only at the lightest pressure, similar to a grand piano keyboard. These keyboards have been adjusted to provide additional friction that balances key repetition and response without compromising performance.
Design Philosophy
Clavinova pianos offer outstanding playability, versatile features and an elegant, authentic design that combines a compact form with modern aesthetics, setting new standards for contemporary piano design. At the heart of the Clavinova design concept is the feeling that players have when they sit down in front of their Clavinova. Unnecessary elements are removed from the player's view to create a feel as natural as that of an acoustic piano. This reflects Yamaha's focus on players practicing on the Clavinova but performing with real grand pianos. You can take your seat on stage with peace of mind because everything feels just like home. A Clavinova piano is part of the musician's everyday life - and thanks to modern accents and color variations, it fits in with any design and lifestyle.
Grand Expression Modeling
The interaction and interplay of the hammers, dampers and strings in a real grand piano react to the slightest deviations in keystrokes, creating almost infinite possibilities for tonal expression. With their touch, pianists not only control the intensity (soft or loud) when playing and releasing the keys, but can also control the speed and depth at which the keys are struck. Grand Expression Modeling, introduced in the CLP-700 Series, translates the different inputs pianists make with their fingers into the same endless tonal variation of real grand pianos.
This allows you to change the sound by playing keys at different depths or speeds - even when using techniques such as trills or legato, or when emphasizing the melody alongside accompanying notes. Grand Expression Modeling can faithfully reproduce the expected sound of many well-known titles. In Debussy's "Clair de Lune", gentle keystrokes create an airy sound that brings the melody more to the fore. In Liszt's "Un Sospiro", the accompanying arpeggios accentuate the melody without overloading it, and the varied expression of the melody offers a quality like singing. Chopin's final nocturnes feature trills, legato and other delicate techniques in which the fingers seem to float over the keyboard, providing the necessary breathy and gentle tonal expression. By playing pieces with an expressive piano, pianists can learn the various techniques and express themselves through sound like a painter through color.
New samples of the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial
The grand piano sounds of the Clavinova have been recorded from several world-famous concert grand pianos. One of them is the CFX, Yamaha's leading concert grand piano. Many pianists around the world have fallen for the impressive, overwhelming and expressive sound that the CFX achieves in concert halls. Another sampled concert grand is the Imperial, the flagship model of Bösendorfer, a famous Viennese grand piano manufacturer with passionate fans. The Imperial is known for its wide range of colors and natural, warm feel. Yamaha reproduces the characteristics of these concert grand pianos by carefully recording the entire tonal range for all 88 keys and making lightning-fast adjustments to capture the most harmonious tones the two pianos have to offer.
A complete concert experience - even with headphones.
Binaural sampling describes a method in which special microphones are attached to the head of a mannequin - just like the pianist's ears - to capture the piano sounds as they really sound. Yamaha uses this method to achieve the atmosphere and full, natural sound of acoustic pianos with the Clavinova pianos. This makes pianists feel as if they are sitting at a real grand piano, even when playing through headphones. The experience is so convincing that they quickly forget the headphones - no matter how long they play. The CLP-700 series pianos use binaural sampling for the Bösendorfer Imperial and Yamaha CFX. Yamaha achieves a high-quality binaural sound by using a specially developed doll's head and specially modeled ears for the recording.
In addition, Yamaha has developed the "Stereophonic Optimizer" function to achieve the same effect as real grand pianos. Stereophonic Optimizer technology replicates the natural spread of different piano voices through headphones - almost as good as the binaural sampling of the CFX and Imperial.
Classical fortepiano voices
The CLP-775/745/735/765GP models are the first instruments to be equipped with fortepiano voices. The fortepiano is a predecessor of the modern piano. The sounds of the fortepianos sound much faster than those of modern pianos and the composer's intention in terms of timing and length is much clearer with the pedals of a fortepiano. Using these historical instruments, pianists can follow the intentions of past composers more intuitively by playing the notes of centuries-old songs realistically.
