Yamaha P-S500 เปียโนไฟฟ้า

Natural acoustic experience

Enjoy the authentic piano experience Yamaha can provide. The P-S500 digital piano is special with Virtual Resonance Modelling. Not only does this give you the same surrounding resonance of a concert grand, but also provides aliquot resonance in the upper octaves. This is a feature you won’t find in many digital pianos. Aliquot is a stringing method that uses extra, un-stuck strings in the higher octaves to enrich the tone. These extra strings do this when they vibrate in sympathy with your other strings, adding complex colour to your sound.

Not only do you get an authentic sound, you will also be able to learn the proper acoustic technique with your new P-S500 digital piano. You don’t have to worry about any nasty surprises when you sit down at an acoustic piano in your lessons or a new venue. Rather, with Yamaha’s renowned Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) 88 key piano keyboard, your teacher will be pleased with the proper technique you develop. That’s because a GHS keyboard is fully weighted, giving you resistance just like an acoustic. This extends to the detail of being heavier on the bass notes and lighter in the higher keys.

Lighting the way

The P-S500 makes learning easier with the addition of Stream Lights. Small lights above the keys flash gently in the sequence of notes needed to play a piece, offering a more adaptable and versatile learning experience for inexperienced players. When you don’t want to use these, you can turn the function off to allow complete focus. It takes the pressure off reading scores and provides an extra layer of support.

Two legendary pianos in one

Enjoy two of the most famous concert grands. Many dream of playing either the Yamaha CFX or the Bösendorfer Imperial, but here you get an authentic experience of playing both. This gives you the chance to match your tone based on the genre of your music, whether that works better with the strong, full-bodied palette of the CFX or the warm Viennese tones of the Imperial. Either way, the P-S500 is the best way to play these iconic piano sounds.

Digital perks

The P-S500 isn’t just about its amazing acoustic performance. With over 600 voices when connected to the Smart Pianist app, you have a world of options to get creative with. You’ll quickly get into the swing of things with 403 preset songs in a variety of genres. As you master your new tunes, you can practise silently so you won’t disturb anyone. With headphones, you don’t lose sound quality thanks to binaural CFX sampling, designed to give you a realistic, natural sound at any volume.

This piano also offers the opportunity to sing with an included microphone socket and automatic Vocal Harmony. “Audio to Score” can convert your favourite songs into piano accompaniment scores so that you can play along. The P-S500 is infinitely adaptable when used with the Smart Pianist app!

External device connection

Who said pianos had to be traditional? The Smart Pianist app offers a range of features that places you in control. The app enables you to select instrument voices, adjust various settings, record your performance, and much more! You will find yourself making music faster with this app as it gives you the freedom to do it via your smart device.

Want to play along with your favourite songs? Now you can! Smart Pianist scans the audio songs loaded in your music library, analyses the chord progressions, and then displays them for you on the screen of your smart device. It’s that simple. Play along as the chords scroll by, all the while hearing the song playback through your piano’s speaker system. Loading MIDI songs into the app will also allow you to follow along with digital sheet music while you play. Please note: Smart Pianist functionality may vary dependent on the model of Yamaha piano used.
