Yamaha C7X (Silent Piano)

• Acoustic Authenticity: At its core, the Yamaha C7X SH3 Silent Piano is a genuine acoustic instrument. Yamaha's tradition of piano craftsmanship provides rich sound and quality, ensuring an authentic piano experience.
• SILENT Mode Functionality: The SH3 enables players to engage SILENT Mode, during which the hammers do not strike the strings. Instead, the piano's digital sound engine produces high-quality sampled sounds heard through headphones, allowing for private practice without disturbing others.
• Articulation Sensor System: Equipped with Yamaha’s advanced Articulation Sensor System, the C7X SH3 captures the nuances of finger movements through non-contact sensors that don't affect the piano's natural touch. This system ensures precise simulation of string hammer strikes.
• Grand Expression Modeling: This feature realistically reproduces the tonal variations that occur in an acoustic piano, reflecting the intricacies of hammer strikes and damper contacts based on the player's touch, providing granular control over the sound.
• Virtual Resonance Modeling: VRM technology simulates the sympathetic resonance of a grand piano, enhancing the playing experience with rich, complex tones and resonances, even when the piano is played silently with headphones.
• Voices of Yamaha and Bösendorfer Grands: The C7X SH3 includes meticulously sampled sounds of top concert grand pianos, such as the Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial, adding depth and variety to the instrument's digital voice options.
• Binaural Sampling: Designed to create a natural listening experience in SILENT Mode, binaural sampling technology places the player amidst the sound of the grand piano, as if they weren't wearing headphones at all.
• Quick Escape System: Ensures optimal playability in both acoustic and digital modes by adjusting the distance between hammers and strings, thus preserving the piano's touch and expressive capabilities.
• Automatic Accompaniment: With 20 different rhythm types, players can enjoy a full-band experience with automatic drum and bass accompaniment to enrich their playing sessions.
• Recording Functions: The piano features convenient built-in and USB flash drive recording options, allowing pianists to capture their performances in WAV format for easy playback or sharing.
• Bluetooth® MIDI Connectivity: Wirelessly connect to the Smart Pianist app using Bluetooth® MIDI to access and control the piano's features, making adjustments and selections conveniently from a smart device.
• Volume Control: Despite the digital enhancements, the piano maintains its acoustic resonance, and players can easily adjust the volume, ensuring a satisfying experience whether in silent practice or acoustic play.
