Yamaha B3 (Silent Piano)

• Advanced Silencing Technology: Equipped with the capability to enter SILENT Mode, allowing for quiet practice with headphones without disturbing those around you, maintaining the acoustic piano touch and feel.
• Articulation Sensor System: Incorporates Yamaha’s proprietary technology to interpret precise finger movements, ensuring that every nuanced expression is captured and reflected in the sound, even when playing silently.
• Grand Expression Modeling: Offers a dynamic tonal variation that mimics the unique response of hammers and dampers on strings, allowing for real-time audio adjustments based on the intensity of the player's touch, providing a genuine acoustic experience even in silent mode.
• Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM): Reproduces the complex and varied sympathetic resonance of a grand piano, providing rich and immersive sound experience, particularly when the instrument is played in Quiet Mode.
• Binaural Sampling: Delivers a natural and full resonance that makes the pianist feel like they are seated at a grand piano, through a recording process that simulates the actual sound experience of playing a grand piano, available for both Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial voices.

• Quick Escape System: Optimizes the distance between hammers and strings across playing modes to ensure the piano’s exceptional playability and expressiveness are preserved, even when switched between acoustic and silent operations.
• Bluetooth® MIDI: Integrates with the Smart Pianist app through a wireless connection, enabling intuitive control over the instrument's features and simplifying the user interaction with the piano's digital aspects.
