SILENT FEATURES


 

Yamaha Piano Logo on acoustic piano soundboard

Born to be silent

Each Yamaha SILENT Piano is conceived, designed and built from the ground up, fashioned by Yamaha master craftsmen in the same factory using the same time-honored, traditional methods as acoustic pianos.

Acoustic piano soundboard with hammers

Pure, natural sound

Three proprietary technologies work together to emulate the natural feeling and sound of an acoustic piano in your headphones. Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) recreates the resonance of the strings, soundboard and case. An advanced binaural sampling method simulates the sound you hear when sitting at the piano. Smooth Release Technology models the subtle interactions of the piano strings with the damper.

Key sensor system detail

Every nuance, every note

An advanced non-contact Articulation Sensor System continuously measures the movement, timing, depth and force of every key attack and release to faithfully capture and reproduce the subtle nuances of your performance.

Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial concert grand pianos

Multiple piano voice options

The world-renowned Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial concert grands are two of many digital voices available in your headphones including electric pianos, harpsichords, organs, strings, choir and synth pad.

The GB1K and GC Series pianos may be small, but they have a powerful resonance and tone that brings out the subtle nuances of every note.

Acoustic Piano Wood Frames in Factory

Rich, resonant woods

Great pianos start with the finest wood. Soundboards and ribs are crafted by Yamaha artisans using hand-selected spruce from the Kitami Wood Mill in Hokkaido, Japan.

Acoustic Piano Back Posts

Back posts, forward thinking

These pianos share the robust back post design of conservatory series pianos, giving them the powerful resonance, durability and tuning stability you might expect in a larger grand piano.

Bass strings are crafted and hand wound under the watchful eye of Yamaha artisans exclusively for each piano.

Close Detail of Acoustic Piano Frame

Advanced V-Pro frame

Yamaha was the first company to use an advanced Vacuum Shield Mold casting technology called V-Pro to create a stronger, lighter, more durable frame worthy of the grandest grand piano. Every frame is built to exacting specifications at the Iwata Forge in Japan.
