Take the Stage
Overview: Yamaha’s CP Series Stage Pianos
Specifics: Yamaha introduced a redesigned
lineup of CP Series Stage Pianos. Beneath the
hood of the CP1, which features NW-STAGE
weighted wooden keys, Spectral Component
Modeling tone generation technology faithfully
recreates the sounds and nuances of
17 Yamaha acoustic and vintage electronic
pianos, including the CFIIIS, S6B, the CP80,
Rd1, Rd II, Wr and the DX7. This Spectrum
Component Modeling system replicates the
instrument’s physical components for ultra-realistic
tone generation, including the hardness
of the hammers, resonance of the sound board
and the striking position of the hammers. It
also relies on granular parametric data that
translates every nuance of the player’s touch
into an expressive tone. The CP models also
use Virtual Circuit Modeling to replicate the
effect units, amplifiers, compressors, EQ and
other equipment that were important in creating
many of those vintage sounds.
MSRP: CP1: $5,999; CP5: $3,299; and
CP50: $2,199
