Yamaha - 88-Key Graded Hammer Stage Piano

Drawing on rich tradition and experience, Yamaha's new CP300 Stage Piano gives the live performer all the sound and expressiveness of a superbly mic'd grand piano with the portability and versatility of a modern digital instrument.

As master keyboard controllers, the CP300 stage piano lets you take full command of your gear. Play and control external synthesizers and tone generators (such as the MOTIF-RACK ES) during your performance. Assign different internal voices to different sections of the keyboard or even create complex, multi-textured layers of sound. There are four instrument Zones on the CP300 with 4 dedicated Zone sliders on the panel that let you easily tweak the level of each instrument as you play. You can also freely reassign the sliders and wheels to control other sonic characteristics of the connected gear as desired, such as sound attack, decay, brightness and filter cutoff.

When you want your CP300 to sound and act like one of Yamaha's finest acoustics, you will love its versatility to do just that, providing the most authentic sounding and finely nuanced acoustic piano voices possible. Use the special Mono Piano sound, complete with a compression effect, to give punch and power to your live performance; stand out, even in full band situations.
