Enjoy learning, practicing, or playing the piano with the black walnut Yamaha ARIUS YDP-105, an entry-level console digital piano offering the playability and authentic sound of an acoustic grand piano for beginners and intermediate players alike. The 88-key GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard with matte-black keytops, along with three piano-style pedals provide a natural touch and response true to that of an acoustic piano. The sound engine features a Damper Resonance effect that helps deliver the expressive tone of a Yamaha grand piano. The YDP-105’s traditional full-size console design incorporates attractive wood cabinetry with elegant curves that are typical of an acoustic piano, adding a refined touch to the décor of large and small living rooms, studies, and family rooms. A matching bench is included.
- The YDP-105 is designed to provide a perfectly balanced sound throughout the piano’s range. The superb sound of 10 stereo-sampled instrument sounds such as a Yamaha grand piano are delivered with rich harmonic details through newly designed speakers—making practicing or playing a truly inspiring experience.
- Sounds: Authentic grand piano along with 9 other built-in instrument sounds including electric piano, organ, vibraphone, and strings.
- Layer mode lets you combine two sounds together to create inspiring new sounds.
- With a weighted 88-key piano action, the GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard reproduces the touch of an acoustic piano, from a naturally heavy feel in the lower range to a lighter touch in the upper octaves. The GHS keyboard provides a grand-piano-style response and feel, allowing rapid note repetition and authentic expressive control.
- To further enhance the YDP-105’s acoustic pianolike authenticity, the three-pedal system provides rich expressive variations by replicating the position and individual weighting of the damper (with half-pedal support), soft, and sostenuto pedals of the Yamaha grand piano.
- Damper Resonance modeling reproduces the broad and deep sound field of an acoustic piano by mirroring the tonal changes that result when a damper pedal on a grand piano is pressed. It includes sounds such as those emitted from the keybed and emulates the cumulative resonance that occurs when all of these sounds blend together.
- Convenient Duo mode allows the piano’s keyboard to be split in the center, making it possible for a teacher to play on one side while a student follows along on the other. The two players can play the same piano sound and octave range side by side.
- The instrument is equipped with two headphone jacks for quiet performance or practice with two players.
- To protect you ears from excessively loud sound, the Volume Limiter function lets you set a fixed maximum volume level for both the speakers and headphones.
- The YDP-105 is compatible with the free Yamaha Smart Pianist app. Simply download the app to your smart device and connect it to the instrument via USB (cable available separately).
- The Smart Pianist allows easy operation of the various sound functions of the instrument and makes it simple to call up a range of scores, including scores for the 10 built-in songs. It also features a powerful Piano Room function for changing the tonal quality and resonance settings of the piano sound as well as a recording function.
