Yamaha's CP88 is the all-encompassing stage piano. Its combination of acoustic touch and breadth of sounds means this is one of few flagship live performance instruments.
Feel
Authentic graded hammer action and wooden and synthetic ivory keys makes the CP88 the go-to for piano purists. Yamaha has designed the CP88 to deliver hundreds of sound options without sacrificing playability.
Whether you like the tone of a classic grand piano or crazy synth sounds, nothing is complete without true hammer action. These luxurious keys are dynamic, responsive and offer precise feedback as you play thanks to the high quality mechanism and woods.
Sounds
The comprehensive array of sounds on the CP88 is suitable to any musical genre or style of playing using four piano types. Be it a Bösendorfer Imperial grand piano or augmented synthesizers loaded with digital effects, the CP88 acts as a brilliant creative tool.
Further content updates will be made to expand the sound library. Hook up to a PC via USB to keep in the loop for the latest from Yamaha.
You have complete control over parameter adjustments. No interface needed, go direct to simply-labelled dials for each effect. The LED screen can be used to save and select your custom sounds.
Seamless Sound Switching lets you change settings as you play, eliminating sharp cut-off. The last chord you play will keep the previous sound or effects, making for smooth transitions mid-song or preparing for the coming song.
Portability
Connect direct to mixing desks or stage boxes thanks to XLR compatibility, or use the stereo inputs for connectivity with smartphones, tablets or other keyboards. Play along to songs in practice sessions or hear outboard effects through the high quality processor.
The CP88's lightweight chassis makes it easy to pack away on the road or fit into a home studio or practice area.
