Essential Sounds
The
P-140 brings users an exceptional range of instrument
voices,
from organs and harpsichords to the new, all-in-one
piano & string dual voice. Recorded using Yamaha's
own AWM sampling technology, all onboard voices accurately
reproduce the subtlest harmonics of the actual instrument
with stunning realism.
Dynamic Stereo Sampling
To
offer truly authentic sound, Yamaha takes piano
voice sampling
to a whole new level. With three separate layers
of stereo samples each set at a different velocity,
Dynamic Stereo Sampling changes not only the volume,
but also the harmonic structure of the notes depending
on how hard you play the keyboard just like
a real acoustic piano! An exclusive fourth sample
layer recreates a piano's unique sustain resonance
whenever the damper pedal is pressed, while key-off
samples add even the subtle sounds of felt dampers
coming to rest on piano strings. Better still,
the P-140's highly efficient built-in powered speaker
system directs your music forward for unbeatable
sound.
Realistic Piano Action
The P-140 features
Yamaha's highly acclaimed Graded Hammer Effect keyboard,
the result of more than a century's worth of piano
craftsmanship and ingenuity. It's designed so that
the keys in the lower registers have a heavier touch
than those in the upper, which helps to create the
feel of an acoustic piano. Just take a look at the
different-sized hammers under the lid of any grand
piano and you'll see why Yamaha puts the Graded Hammer
Effect keyboard in all P-Series instruments.
