New GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) Keyboard
The Yamaha P225 Digital Piano features a newly developed GHC keyboard that offers a playing feel closely resembling that of a weighted acoustic piano. This compact keyboard has been designed to address the concerns of piano players, ensuring accurate response, consistency between key press and sound, and a wide dynamic range. Despite its compact size, the GHC keyboard retains the outstanding playing comfort of its predecessors and provides an exceptional playing experience for both advanced players and beginners.
One of the standout features of the Yamaha P225 is its ability to replicate the sound of Yamaha's flagship concert grand, the CFX, renowned for its shimmering highs and powerful lows. The P225 utilizes Virtual Resonance Modelling (VRM) Lite technology, which digitally reproduces the complex resonance of the strings in a grand piano. This means that the P-225 can accurately recreate the tonal changes that occur when keys are pressed, resulting in an infinitely realistic and expressive sound. Whether you're performing on stage or practicing at home, this piano offers a truly immersive experience.
Portable or permanent
Whether you want to add elegance to your living room or take your music on the go, the P225 is the perfect choice. With its stylish and compact design, it fits seamlessly into any room. Additionally, the optional soft case allows you to conveniently carry the P225 to studios, parties, live performances, or even during trips. Enjoy the flexibility to play the piano wherever and whenever you like.
Balanced, clear sound
The placement and angle of the speakers on the P225 Digital Piano have been carefully adjusted to replicate the natural sound reflection of an acoustic grand piano soundboard and lid. This attention to detail ensures a balanced and clear sound reproduction, with sharp and clear mid-to-high range tones and a prominent low-end. Additionally, the Sound Boost function allows you to switch to a more punchy and powerful sound when desired, adding further versatility to your playing.
Bluetooth compatibility
The Yamaha P-225 features built-in Bluetooth audio, enabling you to wirelessly connect your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone or tablet and enjoy your favourite music through the instrument's speakers. This feature allows you to play along with your favourite songs or simply relax and listen to your music library. With no need for an external adapter, the P225 provides a seamless and hassle-free way to enjoy high-quality sound.
The Smart Pianist app
Yamaha Digital Pianos can be linked with the Smart Pianist digital piano app, allowing you to control the instrument directly from your smart device. With intuitive operation and easy access to a variety of functions, you can explore and customize your playing experience effortlessly.
