Tone Escapement

The YDP-165 and YDP-145 use a newly developed tone escapement construction on the back of the cabinet that emanates sound from inside the piano. This allows you to experience the natural sound radiation and three-dimensional resonance akin to that of an acoustic piano. 

Feel

With an 88-key piano action, the GH3 (Graded Hammer 3) keyboard and GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) reproduce the touch of an acoustic piano, from a naturally heavy feel in the lower keys to a lighter touch in the upper octaves. The GH3 keyboard of the YDP-165 and YDP-S55 even provides a grand piano-style response and feel, allowing rapid note repetition and authentic expressive control. Moreover, there’s a half-damper feature which authentically replicates the damper action of a grand piano, providing rich expressive variation.

One of the allures of the grand piano is the sympathetic resonance created by the vibration of the entire instrument. All ARIUS models elaborately reproduce this rich sympathetic resonance through a groundbreaking technology called Virtual Resonance Modeling Lite (VRM Lite). VRM Lite creates a richly varied sound by simulating the complex sympathetic tones created when the vibrations of the strings are propagated to the soundboard and other strings, corresponding to the timing and intensity of key playing and pedalling.

Smart Pianist

With the Smart Pianist app, you can easily operate the various Voice functions of the instrument and use it to view scores of the built-in songs. It also features a comprehensive Piano Room function for changing the tonal quality and resonance settings of the piano sound.

Design

While based primarily on straight lines, both YDP-165 and YDP-145 have a stylish design that incorporates elegant curves that are typical of a grand piano. The piano cabinet of the YDP-S55 and YDP-S35 have a slim depth that lets you neatly install it in any room, and makes for a chic, stylish design that effortlessly enhances your living space. Moreover, you can choose from a variety of colour variations to find the one that suits your interior and personal taste.
