What Is the Clavinova CLP Series?

The Clavinova CLP Series aims to replicate the sensations and experience of playing an acoustic grand piano on digital instruments by combining the latest digital technology with the craft of acoustic piano-making cultivated over more than 120 years.

Digital Never Felt So Grand

This phrase captures the identity of the Clavinova CLP Series. The defining features of the CLP Series are astoundingly advanced piano performance and sophistication as a single instrument that is able to accommodate a wide range of musical expression. Yamaha's mission is to convey the joy and pleasure of piano playing to more piano players by continuing to push the boundaries and make their digital pianos for the household market as close to grand pianos as possible.

People want to play grand pianos, but cannot because of restrictions at home. The Clavinova CLP Series solves this problem by delivering lush playing experiences similar to grand pianos. CLP Series pianos feature quality that meets the demands of high-level practice and playing and plenty of functions to make practice enjoyable and effective.

Clavinova CLP Series digital pianos are digital instruments with modern grand piano capacity for a broad range of musical expression. With the right combination of dynamics and articulation from forte and piano to staccato, legato, tenuto, and more, you have the complex sensitivity required to play classical music.

About CLP Design

The Clavinova CLP Series boasts excellent playability along with a refined, authentic design that blends a compact form with modern aesthetics in a manner befitting the instrument that sets the contemporary standard for pianos. At the heart of the Clavinova design concept is the way the player feels when they take their seat in front of a Clavinova piano. Unnecessary elements are removed from the player’s field of view to create a convincingly natural space that feels just like sitting at an acoustic piano. This represents Yamaha’s consideration to players who practice on Clavinova and perform on grand pianos, they are able to take the stage free of tension or worry because everything feels normal, as it should. A Clavinova piano is a part of the player’s everyday life, contemporary accents and colour variation are available to mesh with any interior design or lifestyle.

Turn your living room into a performance venue for a top-flight grand piano

With resonance and tone variation similar to a grand piano, the CLP-800 Series allows you to enjoy a wide range of expression. The keyboard and pedals faithfully respond to the player’s touch to provide a feel close to that of a grand piano. A full lineup of colours ensures that your piano will match your interior design.

We recommend this model for:

  • People who focus on sound quality and elements of feel such as touch and pedal response
  • People who seek a simple piano
  • Players of all skill levels

A long lineup of the Voices piano players want

One of the best reasons to choose a Clavinova CLP-800 Series piano is access to multiple pianos on a single instrument, from world-class concert grand pianos to fortepianos for a more authentic classical music experience. The CLP-800 Series is equipped with a new tone generator chip developed by Yamaha that deliver our highest-quality, most beautiful piano voices to date.

Clavinova pianos feature voices of two world-renowned concert grand pianos. One of them is the CFX, Yamaha’s top-flight concert grand piano. Pianists around the world are enamored with the impressive, dazzling, richly expressive sound of the CFX in concert halls. Another sampled concert grand is the Imperial, the flagship model of Bösendorfer, a time-honored Viennese piano brand with an ardent following. The Imperial is known for its abundance of colour and natural, warm feeling. Yamaha faithfully reproduces the idiosyncrasies of these concert grand pianos by carefully recording the entire tonal range of each of the 88 keys, making minute adjustments to capture the most harmonious tones each piano has to offer.

CLP-800 Series pianos are also equipped with the voices of the fortepiano, the predecessor to the modern piano. The sounds emitted by a fortepiano are simpler than those of a modern piano, and decay much more rapidly. Hearing the sounds of the instruments played when the likes of Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin were composing their songs should illuminate the original intent behind the notes on the page. Here is a novel opportunity to communicate with historical composers by playing these period instruments.

The list of keyed instrument voices goes on to include electric pianos, organs, and more. A single CLP-800 Series piano is all you need to enjoy music from different eras and genres, from jazz and pop to healing music and 1980s classic rock.

Enveloped in textured, clear, grand piano-like sound

When a pianist plays a grand piano, they cause the entire body of the instrument to reverberate, and become enveloped in the colourful tones created from the combination of various acoustic elements in the air around them. The pianist becomes immersed in the diffusing sound and reverberation. CLP-800 Series pianos deliver this pleasant feeling through Grand Acoustic Imaging and other distinct acoustic technologies. Moreover, a new tone generator chip allows fine-tuning and control of the sonic elements of each frequency band, dramatically improving the precision of sound design.

The concept behind the acoustic design of the CLP-800 Series is to cause sound to radiate into the surrounding space as widely as it does from grand pianos. For example, the CLP845, CLP835 and CLP825 feature diffusers—a special mechanism for diffusing sound. These design features allow players to feel the sensations of the sound filling the entire space, the hammers striking the strings in front of them, and the reverberation dissipating into the edges of the space (Grand Acoustic Imaging).

Each model in the CLP-800 Series features the best acoustic design for its case—no matter which model you play, you will be enveloped by a natural, pleasant sound with harmonic balance from bass to treble.

Keys and pedals that allow players to create the intended sound with the same feel as a grand piano

The keys and pedals are the interface between player and instrument. The keys and pedals of CLP Series pianos are designed to feel as similar to their grand piano counterparts as possible, so that the way they behave in response to input from the fingers and toes perfectly matches the resulting sound output.

Acoustic piano-like appearance

Among the myriad other design considerations, Yamaha have also deeply examined the relationship between the piano playing experience and the design of the instrument. Specifically, while their top-end Clavinova CLP-800 Series of digital pianos is modeled after grand pianos in terms of appearance, the playing experience is also designed so that players unquestioningly feel the natural sensations of playing grand pianos from the moment they sit down at the piano to the moment they finish playing and stand up.

This iteration of the CLP-800 Series features many gentle curves in the shape of the body to give the pianos a feeling of warmth and openness. Sitting in between the sweeping curves of the side arms gives you the strong impression that you are playing a grand piano. The wide music stand integrated into the instrument is not only unobtrusive to the player’s dialogue with the music, but also highly functional, capable of holding several sheets spread out.

The LED display of the control panel of the higher-end models is designed to turn off except when the player is changing settings so that it looks like an unassuming keyblock in the player’s field of vision while they are playing. Simply eliminating unnecessary elements from the player’s field of vision allows them to become immersed in piano playing.

Digital Features

  • One advantage of choosing a digital piano is that you can play with headphones on to keep your surroundings quiet. However, many people may find that their ears become fatigued if they play with headphones on for too long. One of the main reasons for this is that sound played directly into the ears is completely different from the natural sound of an actual piano.
  • Binaural sampling solves this problem. This is a method of sampling in which special microphones are placed on a mannequin’s head in the same positions as the pianist’s ears to capture piano sounds the way that they sound in reality. We chose this method to create the ambience and full, natural resonance of acoustic pianos in Clavinova pianos.
  • CLP Series pianos feature 50 of the most famous classical pieces as well as 303 exercises by Hanon, Beyer, Czerny, and Burgmüller. Sheet music is also available for download and viewing on the Smart Pianist app. Try practicing with one hand at a time, or simply listen and enjoy.
  • Smart Pianist is a free application for use with Yamaha digital pianos/hybrid pianos that can create song data from PDF scores and then play it back, as well as analyze song data stored in your smart device and display chord progressions or piano accompaniment scores. The Bluetooth MIDI function of the CLP-800 Series lets you connect to Smart Pianist wirelessly.
  • Combining Smart Pianist with a CLP-800 Series makes it easier to enjoy playing the songs you want to play and increases your performance repertoire.
  • You can play music through the audio system on the CLP-800 Series by using a Bluetooth-enabled smart device. You can stream audio data such as mp3 files, and even enjoy playing along with any songs on your smart device.

The CLP-800 Series offers a variety of ways for you to record your favorite performances

Multi-track MIDI Song Recorder: The recording function featured in the CLP-800 Series allows you to record your performances with a single touch, which is useful when you want to review your playing objectively.

Recording to the Smart Pianist app: You can record your performance in Audio or MIDI format. The recorded data is saved to the smart device. When the piano is connected to Smart Pianist via Bluetooth MIDI, only MIDI recording is possible.

USB Audio Recorder: Insert a USB flash drive into the USB terminal to record performances to the drive and create audio files to save and play back on a computer or share with friends.

Volume Limiter

New Volume Limiter function lets you set a fixed maximum volume level, to protect your hearing from loud sound over the speakers or headphones. The function is a safeguard against small children damaging their hearing by accidentally turning up the volume too high.
