Main Features Real Grand Expression (RGE) Sound Engine This lets you enjoy the playing response and expressive capability of a concert grand piano. In addition to providing smooth tonal changes that respond to your playing touch, it also features a new Smooth Release function which can clearly enunciate staccato notes and produce the sound of lingering resonance when gently lifting your fingers from the keys. It succeeds in capturing the essence of a piano performance to create grand piano-like, richly expressive experiences. GP Soundboard Speakers for simulating a Grand Piano This special speaker system, located on the rear panel, will simulate or produce the reverberation and spaciousness of the sound as if there were the soundboard of a grand piano. NW (Natural Wood) keyboard with synthetic ivory keytops and Linear Graded Hammer The CLP-480 features a keyboard that has the feel of real ivory. The key surface is soft and slightly porous, giving the keys added grip and a natural friction that lets you play easily. The special Natural Wood keyboard uses real-wood white keys just as an actual grand piano. Moreover, Linear Graded Hammer features the lower keys are heavy in touch and the higher keys are light, with all the natural gradations in between. The CLP-480 provides the performance functions and expressive power found only on grand pianos, such as having repeated plays of the same note perfectly articulated, even when playing at high speed or with partial key release. Tri-Amp System The instrument has a built-in Tri-Amp System that features separate amplification for each speaker range-high, mid, and low-providing greater clarity and accuracy from each speaker, ensuring optimum volume balance for each octave range, and letting you enjoy richer, more natural, expansive sound. Audio Playing and Recording from a USB Flash Memory Audio files (.wav) saved to a USB storage device such as a USB flash memory can be played back on the instrument. Moreover, since you can record your performance as audio data to a USB flash memory device, it is possible to listen to your performance on portable music players, with the data transferred by computer. 8 Main Features
