A Clavinova Designed as a Premium Furniture Piano, Focused on Performance and Expressiveness
Within the "furniture" digital piano family, this Clavinova emphasizes the playing experience: a keyboard close to acoustic sensations, a sound generation centered on the concert grand piano, and amplification designed to fill the room with a stable stereo image. It caters equally to classical pianists seeking dynamic control and modern musicians who want to record, play silently with headphones, or control software via USB and Bluetooth (depending on regional availability).Keyboard Design
The GrandTouch 88-key keyboard combines wooden keys (white), surfaces resembling ebony and synthetic ivory, an escapement, and counterweights for precise feedback, particularly appreciated in pianissimo and fortissimo. The response is enhanced by Linear Graded Hammers across 88 keys to achieve a natural transition from bass to treble. Sensitivity is adjustable (Hard2, Hard1, Medium, Soft1, Soft2, Fixed) to adapt the touch to your technique, repertoire, and playing dynamics.Sound Quality
The piano section relies on two reference instruments: the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial. For headphone playing, binaural recording (on "CFX Grand" and "Bösendorfer") enhances spatial sensation and reduces the "in-the-head" effect. Realism is further enhanced by Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM), simulating resonances (strings, soundboard, harmonic interactions), and by Grand Expression Modeling for a more organic response to attack. With a maximum polyphony of 256 notes and a broad sound palette (53 Voices + 480 XG Voices + 14 Drum/SFX Kits), the CLP-885 remains fluid when layering, splitting, and using pedals.Built-in Effects
Integrated processing: Reverb (7 types), Chorus (3 types), Brilliance (7 types + User), Insertion Effect (12 types), IAC (Intelligent Acoustic Control), and Stereophonic Optimizer. The Dual/Layers, Split, and Duo modes allow combining sounds, sharing the keyboard, or working with two players on the same range.Technical specifications
