The CVP 305 offers a versatile selection of over 800 voices, including incredibly realistic Piano voices, XG voices and new Sweet, Live, Cool and Natural voices. Sweet voices capture the delicate nuances of wind and brass instruments. Live voices accurately reproduce the unique characteristics of acoustic instruments and cool voices the subtlest tones of electronic instruments.
Producing a Clavinova digital piano that is musically more powerful and packed with more innovative features than previous models is a tough enough brief to work to but when the instrument functionality must also be a radical departure from normal design rules then it becomes then it becomes a massive challenge.
Fantastic Piano Action
To ensure the entire range acknowledges the principal benefits that appeal to customers across the board all models feature the critically acclaimed Graded hammer (GH) keyboard action, which replicates the feel and touch of an acoustic piano with precise accuracy. This is thanks to a unique weighting system which creates the sensation of the keys in the lowers register offering slightly more resistance than those in the higher register replicating the feel of the strings and mechanism of a traditional grand piano.
Digital Expertise
Epitomising Yamahas legendary attention to detail and obsessive search for constant improvement the new range of Clavinova models also bring together Yamahas century deep experience in crafting world class acoustic pianos with its market leading digital music technology expertise.
Great for Beginners
All models are ideal for beginner and professional alike. For the first time pianist the Clavinova helpfully offers an easy to use guide lamp system which allows the player to follow the sheet music or on screen notation as lamps above each key light up indicating the correct notes. This superb and interactive function works with professionally orchestrated accompaniments making practice and performance exiting and fun.
Awesome Tyros Voices
Yamaha have brought the same voice set to the Clavinova that recently led to the award-winning TYROS being voted the worlds best keyboard. Over 850 stunningly realistic voices including Yamahas unique Sweet, Cool, Live and Natural voices bring amazing reality to the players performance. As with music itself, the most subtle changes and nuances can make the most difference and this is true of the new CVP voice set: Sweet voices incorporate delicate changes in vibrato, tone and breath control whilst Cool and Natural voices capture the unique characteristics of the selected instruments.
Easy to See Colour Screen
The new colour LCD display is designed to ensure the instrument is easy to use with all functions and operations easily accessible and instantly available Vocal harmony functions, registration memories and one touch settings further add to the unique performance characteristics of the new range.
If you’re going to study there’s no place like home
The Clavinova features a truly extensive learning support Mk system including guide lamps over the keyboard. Right from day one, the kids-or even grandad can learn by playing real music instead of practice pieces, making it fun and enjoyable to study. Theres even a built-in recorder so you can record your performance and see how you’re doing, and save it to floppy disk to build up a continuing progress report.
16 track sequencer
Following customer research Yamaha found that more and more customers indicated the desire to compose their own music and create personalised arrangements and have therefore built in an easy to use yet highly sophisticated 16-track digital recorder. The on board disk drive allows compositions to be readily saved. A host of high tech features enhance the computer based facilities of the range, the addition of Smart Media, external storage via USB, Internet Direct Connection and the eagerly awaited Digital Music Notebook complete what is sure to be another high point in the development of these unique instruments.
