Introduction
The Disklavier ENSPIRE offers many valuable features that open up new musical possibilities for you to
explore. Here are brief explanations of such features:
Automatic performance from a real acoustic piano
•
Non-contact optical sensors detect the movement of the keys with a high level of fidelity, recording and
reproducing the most delicate nuances of any piano performance. This reproduces not only the
movement of the keys, but also of the pedals, and even half-pedaling, delivering a performance almost
indistinguishable from that of a real pianist. What’s more, the PRO model features hammer sensor
feedback, allowing reproduction of the nuances of techniques such as rapid note repetition and softly-
played notes. You can even directly adjust the volume of the beautiful acoustic piano sound.
•
500 well-known piano pieces are stored internally, ranging in genre from classical right through to popular
music and jazz, there for you to enjoy as the mood takes you. Songs including vocals from Yamaha artists
even allow you to experience the atmosphere of a live performance, and Yamaha also provides the 24-
hour DisklavierRadio streaming service.
Convenient functions
•
Practice effectively by recording your own piano performances for playback and objective checking later,
or practice playing the right hand part to a piece with just the left hand recorded. You can record recitals
or daily practice sessions, allowing you to save and replay treasured moments.
•
Silent Piano™ function that lets you use headphones for quiet practice sessions at night. Enjoy
performing with the faithfully sampled sound of the Yamaha CFX concert grand piano.
•
SmartKey feature that shows you the next key to play with by moving the keys slightly — an ideal function
for beginners. Playing the keys in the order shown leads you through the song, allowing even beginning
players to enjoy practicing.
Simple, intuitive operation
•
Use a tablet or smartphone for easy operation.
•
Choose from 500 piano pieces stored in the internal memory or purchased songs, letting you create your
own unique playlists of favorites.
•
Use the buttons on the switch box for easy playback. The buttons are in an unobtrusive location, meaning
you can enjoy the authentic appearance of an acoustic piano in your living space.
