Yamaha Avantgrand Nu1Xa (Hybrid Piano)

• Specialized Upright Piano Action: The Yamaha AvantGrand nu1xa simulates the tactile response of an acoustic upright piano, capturing the nuance of every touch with its precision and providing an authentic piano-playing experience. Its specialized upright piano mechanism is ideal for players seeking the natural, resistant feel akin to an acoustic instrument.
• Articulation Sensor System: Utilizing a non-contact electromagnetic sensor system, the nu1xa detects the subtlest gestures and velocities of play. The Articulation Sensor System ensures every dynamic expression from pianissimo to fortissimo is translated into sound with the utmost fidelity, capturing the true intention behind each note played.
• VRM and Grand Expression Modeling: The Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) and Grand Expression Modeling technologies recreate the complex interplay of sounds found in grand pianos. These features work together to reflect how the strings, hammers, and other components interact, providing depth and realism to each performance, from the resonance of open strings to the tonal changes that correspond with the strength of each keystroke.
• Authentic Grand Piano Voices: The nu1xa is equipped with meticulously sampled sounds from two world-renowned grand pianos: the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial. Players can explore and perform with the expressive capabilities and tonal personalities of these iconic instruments, featuring everything from bright and powerful to soft and nuanced timbres.
• Binaural Sampling: For players practicing in silence using headphones, Yamaha’s advanced binaural sampling technology delivers a three-dimensional sound experience that simulates playing an acoustic grand piano. This immersive audio is specifically crafted for headphone use, ensuring players can enjoy the nuanced acoustic spatiality and depth even during silent practice.
• Additional Instrument Voices: Beyond its grand piano sounds, the nu1xa includes additional voices, such as the historic fortepiano, enabling musicians to explore a variety of period sounds and genres. This feature broadens the pianist’s palette, allowing for performances that are both historically informed and diversely expressive.
• Modern and Compact Design: The nu1xa presents an elegant and sophisticated form factor that complements any room decor. Its compact size saves space while still emulating the grandeur of a full-size acoustic piano. The polished finish and streamlined design ensure that the instrument is a beautiful addition to your space, enhancing both visual and tactile experiences.
• Touch-Sensitive Control Panel: A discreet, touch-sensitive control panel adds to the nu1xa’s sleek design. The panel allows easy access to core functionalities like voice selection and metronome, and when not in use, it fades away to maintain the piano's traditional aesthetic. This balance of modern technology and classic design is at the core of the piano’s user-friendly interface.
• Bluetooth and Smart Device Connectivity: Integration with smart devices via Bluetooth expands the pianist's possibilities. By downloading the Smart Pianist app, users can manage the piano's features on a tablet or smartphone with ease and even play along with songs from their own music library. This modern approach invites a new level of interaction and enjoyment.
