Yamaha - CP73 73-Key Digital Stage Piano

Yamaha CP73 - Designed for the Gigging Keyboardist

The CP73 by Yamaha is a 73-key Stage Piano with A BHS (Balanced Hammer Standard) Keyboard, AWM2 Tone Generator, 128-voice Polyphony, 57 Voices, and USB Audio/MIDI Interface.

Powered by over 100 years of piano craftsmanship and 45 years of synthesizer innovation, the CP73 and CP88 stage pianos boast authentic acoustic and electric piano sound, realistic piano touch and an intuitive one-to-one user interface.

SOUND
CP73 and CP88 stage pianos feature a wide range of grand piano, upright piano, electric piano and keyboard sounds for playing any music genre. Three premium concert grand pianos - the Yamaha CFX, Yamaha S700 and the Bosendorfer Imperial 290 - provide full dynamic expression and nuance through meticulous recording and voicing. Two upright acoustic pianos, five electric pianos and a wide range of other keyboard sounds are available to cover any playing situation. P73 and CP88 also feature synth sounds for covering any gig or session. Split, layer or solo warm pads, lush strings, deep synth basses, synth leads, brass and more. The one to one CP control interface allows real-time interaction for instant sound creation. Find your own unique sound using the integrated effects; dedicated effects for each of the three sections (Piano, Electric piano and Sub), and master effects with delay, reverb and master EQ.

TOUCH
CP73 features newly-designed, 73-key balanced action that gives you authentic electric piano feel. It even features an "E-to-E" keyboard perfect for playing in a band with a guitar and bass. Balanced action is useful when playing a variety of sounds from acoustic piano to organ or even synth. The balanced, 73-key action also makes CP73 compact and lightweight so it can go anywhere and fit on any stage or in any studio setup.

USER INTERFACE
With its one-to-one interface, CP gives you direct, immediate and total control of your sound during stage or studio performance. There's no programming, menu-diving or web searching with CP. The intuitive CP interface allows fast and easy splits, layers and sound-shaping directly from the front panel.
