Yamaha CSP-275 B

Grand Touch S Keyboard

The CSP-275 features the Grand Touch S keyboard with wooden keys. This keyboard emulates a real grand piano keyboard similar to that of a Yamaha C3 grand piano. The 3 sensors used in the Grand Touch S keyboard pick up every nuance in your playing, allowing you to play with beautiful dynamics and expression. Of course, the escapement mechanism of an acoustic keyboard was also included in the development of this piano.

CFX and Bösendorfer

The Clavinova CSP-255 grand piano sounds come from premium, hand-selected Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial concert grand pianos that have been tuned to perfection by professional piano tuners. Only then were the sounds meticulously sampled in different positions, dynamics, and even with accompaniments, for a stunningly realistic grand piano sound with smooth tone changes perfectly matched to your piano playing. From staccato to legato, you get a beautifully expressive sound that responds beautifully to your touch. Featuring Yamaha Smooth Release technology, as well as Key-Off and String Resonance samples, the CSP-275 gives you realistic bright staccatos and luxurious legatos, for a nuanced response.

Binaural sampling

Binaural samples have also been added for the CFX and the Bösendorfer. This means that while sampling the piano, a binaural microphone has been used at the pianist's position. This microphone picks up sound in exactly the same way our ears pick up sound. This means that when you use headphones with the CFX or the Bösendorfer you don't just hear a fantastic sample, but samples recorded just as you would hear it if you were actually sitting in the pianist's playing position. This gives an extra realism to playing with headphones that makes this no longer a concession, but rather a pleasure.

VRM

Virtual Resonance Modeling is the name for the technology Yamaha uses to mimic the resonance of the acoustic instrument. When you play the piano, the strings that are not being played will resonate with it. And the way they do depends on the touch and use of the pedals. In this Yamaha Clavinova CSP-275 digital piano, it even mimics the detailed sound the dampers make when taken off the strings.

Everything your heart desires

The big advantage of the CSP series is, of course, the use of the Smart Pianist app. This app allows you to control the piano and discover the hundreds of additional features the CSP has to offer.
For example, the first thing you can do is choose your piano. Do you like to play on a real Yamaha CFX? No problem. Do you prefer to play on a real Bösendorfer? Of course, then choose that one. There are hundreds of different sounds to choose from and adjust to exactly what you need.

Piano room

Dive into the piano room and adjust the piano just the way you like it. With the grand pianos, for example, you can open, half-open or close the lid. You can adjust the brightness of a piano, sensitivity of the key, make samples like VRM louder or softer. It is even possible to choose what kind of room the piano is in:

• Recital Hall
• Concert Hall
  
• Cathedral
  
• Chamber
  
• Club

Should you have the knowledge and ambition, it is even possible here to tune the piano yourself. Every note can be individually tuned to give the piano a character you like.

Voices

For anyone familiar with Yamaha knows what we mean by "Voices". Voices are the different sounds in the piano. In the CSP-255 and -275, there are as many as 772 and in the CSP-295 and CSP-295GP as many as 872. Think about:

• Pianos
  
• Organs
  
• Guitar & Bass
  
• Strings and vocals
  
• Wind and wind instruments
  
• Percussion and drums
  
• Synths

Choose a double bass on the left hand and a Hammond organ on the right and play the stars from the sky. Or choose one of the beautiful pianos and get the other two voices to layer over it by turning it down slightly.
This feature of the CSP series allows the player, in combination with the styles, to play an entire band, or match your favorite songs to perfection.

Styles

Styles are accompaniment tracks that follow your playing and add what is needed. For example, a style always has a rhythm, bass and "others" that allow an entire band to play along with you. These three sections can also be individually turned on and off for even more flexibility and personalization in your playing. Choose one of hundreds of different styles clearly arranged into categories such as:

• Pop & Rock
  
• Soul & R&B
  
• Dance
  
• Country & Blues
  
• Standards & Jazz
  
• Entertainment
  
• Latin & World
  

Find the style that suits you, or fits the exact song you want to play and recreate the original. Styles also just make practicing a lot more enjoyable. No more boring metronome to practice your arpeggios, legato or staccato techniques, but a whole band playing along at your pace. Or turn the accompaniment all the way up to jam along with the band and let your creativity run wild within any genre.

Stream Lights

Yamaha's Stream Light system is a revolutionary feature in the CSP. Via the Smart pianist app, you choose one of the many songs ready for you. From classical to pop, from lessons to your own music library, the Stream Lights show you how to play the music. In addition to the sheet music appearing clearly on the tablet, the LED lights above the keys show you at the right tempo which key to play. If you are playing the song for the first time or are new to playing the piano, no problem! Just turn on the guide function and the Stream Lights will wait for you to press the correct key until it moves on to the next one. This guarantees that you can always practice at your own pace and level.

Do you like to

practice

a song that is not in the app? Then simply upload an audio file and the Smart Pianist app will analyze the audio and convert it into score for you to then play through the Stream Lights.

This system also makes the CSP-275 an ideal system for beginning pianists or situations where multiple people, for example in the family, will be using the piano at their own level. While one plays the stars of heaven on just the Bösendorfer, the other has all the benefits of the Stream Lights at his or her own level.

Easy to connect

Connecting to external devices such as the tablet or phone is a breeze as we have seen with the Smart Pianist app. For midi (like the Smart Pianist app) we can use either Bluetooth or USB. When we use the USB connection the CPS-275 will also charge your device. Always convenient!
But audio can also be played via Bluetooth to play along with your favorite songs right from the studio recording or a live session. And with the powerful speaker system built into a CSP piano, the piano also functions as a Hi-Fi speaker.
In addition, of course, we have an Aux input, midi in, out and through and it is even possible to connect a dynamic microphone directly to the piano.
More than we can tell you here.
The possibilities with the CPS-275 are so immense that we cannot tell you all about them in text. If you want to know more about the CSP series now please do not hesitate to contact us and stop by our store where there will always be a CSP piano ready for you to experience it for yourself.
