Finished in a luxurious 'Polished Ebony', this is no ordinary piano! This is a state-of-the-art entry-level musical instrument which on the outside looks traditiional with beautiful cabinetry, full pedalboard and sliding lid.
Underneath this lid however is a console which will springboard any level of playing ability into a musical world of creativity, whether you are a composer, beginner or casual player.
Finished in black walnut and adopting Yamaha's latest 'RGE' (Real Grand Expression) piano technology, the CVP701B by default loads up an exquisite, grand piano voice, with layers of dynamics including key-off, smooth release and string resonance samples. And, from this model and beyond, Yamaha have developed the wonderful 'Piano Room' feature which is based on a collection of premium piano voices (Bosendorfer, Yamaha CFX and vintage electric models), together with a 'Virtual Lid' for altering the tone to suit the player. Furthermore, Yamaha have employed Intelligent Acoustic Control (IAC) for this model, which gives a balanced, natural range of frequencies at any volume.
Playing the 88-note 'GH3' Graded Hammer keyboard routes this default voice through the built-in 25 watt stereo speaker system, suited to practice in the classroom (or playing at home), and the range of high quality voices is incredible and even brass/woodwind and guitars sound authentic, whilst synths, drums and basses sound powerful. Adopting several of Yamaha's stunningly authentic 'Super Articulation' voices, sixteen of the 1260 onboard sounds can be arranged and recorded using the onboard sequencer, and stored to an optional memory stick - either as a Standard MIDI File (SMF), or as a digital wav file courtesy of the USB audio recorder built-in. This means that your recordings can then be emailed, edited (with optional software), or backed up. You can even 'stream' digital wav files from memory stick to play along with or download MIDIfile songs from the internet and import them into the CVP-701, and you will be playing along with your favourite songs, artists or band.
Anything you record incidentally can be instantly played back, whilst the large COLOUR LCD screen displays your musical score in a manuscript form! For those who are unsure whether a piano or keyboard is the correct choice, the CVP 701 is designed to accommodate both, as an amazing array of left-hand styles (backing tracks) are provided.
These have been selected from countries all over the world, and are rich, full and NATURAL sounding styles - whatever your tastes! With 310 'Pro' styles available from World to pop, jazz and rock, all musical tastes are well catered for! Whilst hundreds of exciting preset setups are available for the user to explore, just about everything is programmable (rhythms, styles and handy registration or instant memory setups), and one of Yamaha's many strengths is in the intuitive user interface based around a 4.3" colour LCD display and a small selection of buttons.
Connections? Plenty, with line inputs (including optional microphone), outputs, as well MIDI, USB, optional memorystick plus more....(please note that Yamaha's UD-WL01 wireless LAN adaptor is required to connect wirelessly to i-pad etc).
