Features Authentic portable electric piano, ideal for wide variety of applications The P-515 portable electric piano provides a remarkably easy way to enjoy authentic piano performance easily. Although packed with various functions, it also exceptionally portable-allowing you use it as a family piano, or practice it in your bedroom, or perform with it at a party. For more permanent installations, use the separately sold keyboard stand (L-515) and pedal unit (LP-1). Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial piano samples page 22 The P-515 features piano sounds created with samples of the Yamaha CFX flagship concert grand piano and famed Vienna-made Bösendorfer* grand piano. These piano samples bring two world's finest and most prominent concert grand pianos to your fingertips. * Bösendorfer is a subsidiary company of Yamaha. Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) - reproduces the distinctive reverberation of a concert grand piano page 27 This original VRM technology calculated the various states of the strings for each of the 88 notes of the keyboard from one instant to the next, and the timing and depth of the damper pedal presses. The enhanced VRM now also calculates and reproduces aliquot resonance in the upper octaves, and the full resonance of the soundboard, rim, and frame. This technology gives you vivid, bright, richly varied expression, effectively reproducing the complex acoustic interactions when performing on an actual piano. Natural Wood X (NWX) keyboard - the feel of an acoustic grand piano The P-515 keyboard features white keys made from select quality wood and fitted with the highest quality synthetic ivory, while the black keys are finished in synthetic ebony. What's more, this keyboard features the characteristic escapement mechanism in a grand piano, which moves the hammers away from the strings quickly after they strike them, in order to prevent any interference with string vibration. Rhythm Tracks page 43 The P-515 comes complete with forty different and simple rhythm patterns (drums and bass accompaniment) that are perfectly suited to many types of music regularly performed on the piano, for even greater performance potential. Bluetooth audio function - playing back the audio data wirelessly page 81 The audio data in the smart device such as a Bluetooth-equipped smartphone can be played via the P-515 built-in speaker. You can enjoy performing with the audio data, or listen to the music via the P-515 instead of an audio device. 10 P-515 Owner's Manual
