A piano sound sampled from a Yamaha Full Concert Grand Piano "CFIIIS" with AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling

The piano sound is sampled from the Yamaha Full Concert Grand Piano "CFIIIS", which has won high praise at the world's most famous concert halls and music competitions. The best piano was selected, and an experienced technician prepared it to the highest standards. Sampling is carefully performed over a long duration, from the start of the sound until fadeout, to reproduce a natural sound and attenuation that feels much like an acoustic piano.

In addition, focus is placed on the change in timbre due to the strength or weakness of the key strike that is the characteristic of a piano. The Yamaha development team worked together with pianists in thorough pursuit of the optimum touch and timbre combination.
A new acoustic system for clearer sound

Uses new amp and speaker The piano sound has become clearer, and volume feel has increased.
128 note polyphony

Thanks to Yamaha's own technology, unnatural sound cut-off is reduced even when the pedal is pressed and mutiple notes are overlaid, so that a performance with full presence can still be achieved.
Half-pedal response that widens the range of expression

Yamaha also focuses on the expressive power of pedaling. Three stable pedals are provided; damper pedal , soft pedal,and sostenuto pedal. The damper pedal offers a half-pedal response and can handle micro-adjustments of strength, depending on how hard the pedal is pressed.
In addition to piano, many other rich sounds are mounted

In addition to the electric piano, organ, harpsichord, and other keyboard instruments, it offers a varied sound timbre for string and other instrument performance.
Graded Hammer (GH) Keyboard for a natural playing feel

Yamaha has used its experience in acoustic piano manufacture to create a weighted keyboard that offers a natural playing feel and response. For added realsim, the lower register of the keyboard is slightly heavier with the touch becoming lighter higher up the keyboard.
50 famous piano song library

50 piano songs are recorded in the instrument and also feature in the included music book. You can enjoy these songs as background music or use in lessons, by adjusting to a slower tempo or muting one hand in the music to facilitate practice.
Record your own performances for checks. Convenient for piano lessons "2-track/3-song recording"

Simple operation enables recording of playing performance. Since it can handle 2-track recording, it can record model performances, or record performances on one-hand at a time, letting you enjoy piano duets all by yourself. Built-in memory can save three songs at a time.
Volume control allows micro adjustment when practicing with low volume levels

The Yamaha volume control allows for particularly detailed adjustment at low volume levels. When practicing at home where playing at high volume may not be possible, you can set the optimum sound volume easily. Naturally, the sound volume can be raised to give an impressive piano performance.
Simple, easy-to-understand LED screen and operation panel

Buttons enable direct selection of sound timbre, with LED screen also mounted. So simple that anyone can operate them.
All the convenience of a digital piano

Because it is an electronic piano with no need for tuning, it is maintenance-free. It also comes with two headphone terminals to enable practice without disturbing others. It also has a metronome function essential for practicing and a headphone hanger.
Music data that has been recorded or purchased can be stored on a USB flash memory "USB TO DEVICE Terminal"

With USB flash memory compatibility, storage of recording data and PC data handling are also simple.
Transfer music data purchased in music data shop onto the instrument "Music Software Downloader"

Use the Yamaha free software "Music Software Downloader (*1)" to enable transfer of music data on the PC (MIDI data) to the instrument's built-in memory (*2). Use music data to expand music enjoyment. *1: Music Software Downloader is compatible with Windows only. *2: YDP-141 requires the USB-MIDI interface "UX-16" to transfer the files.
Simple design that is never boring

The Arius Series concept "Simple & Basic" is also expressed in its design. A life with piano unselfconsciously becomes the daily norm.

Yamaha Arius Series Digital Console Pianos

From the makers of one of the world's finest acoustic pianos for over a century, come one of the world's best digital pianos. The Arius Series has all of the conveniences of an electric piano without sacrificing the performance of an acoustic piano.

The best digital piano is one that can grow with a musician as they progress. When a pianist's skill level rises, they require a keyboard action built for more serious playing. The Arius Series features Graded Hammer keyboard action and synthetic ivory keytops, giving the performer a tactile surface with a response reminiscent of some of the finest pianos throughout history.


    


    


Unrivaled Sound Quality

The Pure CF Sound Engine is the result of many years of piano-making history and expertise, combined with state-of-the-art sampling technology (not included on YDP-103).

The Pure CF Sound Engine faithfully reproduces the tone of a meticulously sampled, acclaimed Yamaha 9' CFIIIS concert grand piano, allowing for incredibly dynamic and expressive playing.

Yamaha's CFX 9’ concert grand piano was played by the winner of the prestigious International Chopin Competition in 2010, and has since gained recognition as one of the greatest concert grands of modern times (included with YDP-184).
    
Superb Playability and Feel

All Arius Series models feature a Graded Hammer 88-key piano keyboard action (varies between models, see comparison chart below). Graded Hammer Action provides a heavier touch in the low end and lighter touch in the high end, responding similarly to the hammers inside an acoustic piano.

The Arius Series is great for the aspiring pianist, because practicing with weighted action builds proper finger technique for playing on an acoustic piano. The synthetic ivory key tops provide a tactile surface to the white keys, absorbing moisture from the fingers and preventing them from slipping.
    
Realistic Pedal Performance

Stereo Sustain samples provide mellow reverberations when the player depresses the damper pedal. Similarly, Damper Resonance provides broad and deep resonance when the pedal is used. Similar to that of an acoustic piano, the result is more realistic sound.

Half-damper pedal control creates more detailed nuance and subtlety when playing, similar to pedaling on a grand piano. (included on YDP-181 and YDP-184) This feature allows for continuously increasing lengths of sustained notes, from slight to full, as the sustain pedal is depressed.
New Headphone Experience

The Stereophonic Optimizer is unique to Yamaha. When playing and listening to the instrument using headphones, the Stereophonic Optimizer adjusts the spacing of the sound and the separation from the piano, resulting in a spacious, surround sound quality that will inspire you to play for hours at a time. Within this private listening environment, the sound of the piano can be a more realistic and natural experience.
iOS Compatibility

A standard USB cable can be used to connect the instrument to a computer or mobile device, opening up a world of creativity, entertainment, and education. iOS devices can be connected to the instrument using the the Lightning-USB Camera Adaptor or wirelessly using the Yamaha UD-BT01. The "Digital Piano Controller" app has an attractive interface optimized for iOS touch screens, adding a whole new level of functionality to your Yamaha instrument. Adjust settings, choose Voices, and even record performances.
Song Book Included

The Yamaha digital piano is pre-loaded with a variety of classic piano songs for your listening and learning pleasure. Players can use the accompanying book, "50 Greats for the Piano" to follow along with the music and learn how to play iconic pieces.
Capture your Performance

The recording function built into the instrument allows players to record performances* with a single touch. Additionally, players can record up to 2 tracks for simultaneous playback, meaning that both hands can be recorded separately.
