Welcome to Clavinova Welcome to Clavinova True Acoustic Piano Feel This instrument features gorgeous piano Voices, created with samples of the Yamaha CFX flagship concert grand piano and the famous Bösendorfer* concert grand piano, as well as a special keyboard to fully reproduce the natural touch response and expressive nuances of an actual concert grand piano, including rapid repetitive capability. Moreover, the instrument features a VRM function which accurately recreates the acoustic resonance of a grand piano, which changes subtly by the timing and strength of the player's touch and pedal operation. This enables expression of even the most delicate performance nuances and responds minutely to your pedal use and key playing. The new Piano Room features provide even greater piano performance enjoyment. Piano Room lets you select the desired piano type as well as different room ambiences - enabling a complete, realistic piano experience, as if you were playing an actual piano. What's more, you can play along with other virtual "session" players, and enjoy a convincing band-like performance experience with other musical instruments. * Bösendorfer is a subsidiary company of Yamaha. page 40 Play in Various Music Genres Naturally, the CVP provides many realistic piano Voices for your playing enjoyment. But it also features a wide variety of authentic instruments, both acoustic and electronic, including organ, guitar, sax, and others used in many music genres - letting you convincingly perform in any desired music style. Moreover, the special Super Articulation Voices realistically recreate many of the performance techniques and characteristic sounds generated when an artist plays an instrument. The result is superbly detailed expression - such as the realistic sound of finger slides on guitar, and the expressive breath noises of saxophone and other wind instruments. page 44 12 CVP-701 Owner's Manual
