The Yamaha ARIUS YDP160 digital piano is perfect for students and experienced players alike, and provides true piano sound and feel. The GH keyboard and 3-level AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling voices deliver remarkably authentic sound and natural expressiveness, making it a true joy to play, both in practice and in performance. The damper pedal includes a half-damper effect, giving you nuanced expressive control over the sustained sound. Dual voice capability lets you play two different instrument sounds at the same time, while a 1-track song recorder allows you to capture your original musical ideas and performances.
Graded Hammer Effect - True Piano Feel And Expressive ControlDrawing on over a hundred years of experience and craftsmanship in making world class acoustic pianos, Yamaha introduces the Arius series. These digital pianos provide exceptionally natural, grand piano-like touch, with realistic weight gradations - heavy in the lower end, and light in the upper. The premium Graded Hammer Effect (GHE) action of the YDP160 provides even greater expressive control than GHS. In addition to its quieter mechanism, GHE features an extra key sensor capable of reproducing fast repetitive playing of a single note with perfect articulation. So Graded Hammer Effect keyboards suit skill levels from Chopsticks to Chopin Etudes and everything in between.
AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling For Authentic Piano SoundThe Yamaha Arius YDP160 digital piano features Yamaha's sophisticated AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) with Dynamic Stereo Sampling for the ultimate in instrument realism. Taken at different 3 levels of soft, medium and loud each key is comprised of multiple stereo recordings of an actual grand piano. This provides subtle differences in volume and timbre depending on how you play the keys, and gives you full expressive control over the sound.
A built-in song recorder and metronome make the YDP-160 ideal for piano lessons, practicing, or even as a scratch-pad for you next masterpiece. Fifty specially selected piano songs of standard piano repertoire are built into each Arius digital piano, either for your listening enjoyment, or as a rehearsal tool while playing out of the included 50 Greats for the Piano book.
