    The Yamaha CVP505 benefits from a great new piano sample

    The Piano sampling has been redone since the last new range of Yamaha Clavinova pianos, the CLP300 series. Yamaha Full Concert Grand Piano CFIIIS an award winning piano used in many international competitions including the Frederic Chopin International Piano competition.

    The concept is to be devoted to the original sound, to achieve a responsive and solid voice that gives the ultimate reward in piano playing. Yamaha produces many great concert grand pianos and the most suitable of these was used for the creation of the \"Pure CF\" sample. The acoustic piano used was then finished to the highest standard by the experienced and trusted Yamaha piano tuners who serve concert pianists and performers all over the world

    Provide the best sound engineers with the best piano and they can deliver outstanding results. Microphones are set and moved millimetres at a time to record the most authentic sound possible. Using long samples rather than just looping shorter samples adds to accuracy and gives the true piano voice.

    Further improvements are then made by testing and modifying on the instructions of great performers, pianists and instructors. All to create the Yamaha \"Pure CF\" piano sample.

    The Yamaha CVP505 uses the new \"Pure CF Sampling\" and has 4 levels of sampling like the top of the range CLP370. The Yamaha CVP505 is the first new model to benefit from these incredibly rich piano tones .

    The Yamaha CVP505 feels great to the touch

    The feel of a piano is so important to the enjoyment of playing. The best pianos used to use Ivory because of its unique tactile qualities

    The CVP505 Clavinova benefits from experience gained on the very best concert grands. The key is made from solid wood to reduce vibration and distortion giving a firm play feel close to that of a concert grand piano.

    The surface is made from a new compound developed by Yamaha which feels just like ivory. Moisture is absorbed by the key for stable playing, stopping the fingers slipping on the keyboard. it is stain resistent and easy to wash off.

    the Yamaha CVP505 has loads more improved sounds


    The Yamaha CVP505 benefits from the use of Tyros2 and Motif sounds, the CVP505 has 689 state of the art sounds using superarticulation plus the renowned mega voices.

    Sound quality is all important, and Yamaha CVP505 takes the listeners sonic experience to new heights. One of the key contributors to this are the Super Articulation voices. Super Articulation was first introduced on the Tyros2 Keyboard and CVP409 digital piano , adding many detailed musical nuances to the orchestral sounds. Depending on how you play the keyboard automatically selects one of these ‘supporting' samples to add incredible level of realism. Any of the Super Articulation voices can glissando, bend and articulate, just like the real thing. However each voice responds differently, like the individual instrument.

    The CVP505 has lots more Drum Kits using a technology shared with the world famous DTX series electronic drum kits, additional dance orientated drum kits have been taken from the Yamaha MM6 dance machine
