You may wonder how it is possible to have 32, 64, or even 128 notes playing at the same time, if there are only 88 keys and we never play them all at once. It has Bluetooth, more than 300 voices, a USB to device port and a lot more internal recording capability. Designed to elegantly fit into your home decor, the YDP-144 represents the traditional design of the acoustic piano while delivering the technology and convenience of a state-of-the-art digital piano. First, the Reverb comes in four different forms, and you can control the intensity of each reverb using the function keys.

It’s also a big improvement on the predecessor, maybe the biggest improvement according to my opinion.The YDP-164 shares the somewhat lackluster control scheme found on the other YDP-series digital pianos. As it stands, the YDP-164 still sounds outstanding, so it’s a shame to lose some of the control that comes with other competitors. We might have given the YDP-163 a pass in our review, but it’s been three years since its release, and music tech has developed significantly within this timespan.

The Yamaha CLP-series, also known as the Clavinova series, is Yamaha’s high-end digital piano line, and the CLP-625 is the most affordable model in this series. For example, when you depress the sustain pedal, the earliest played notes continue to sound while you’re adding new ones and the piano needs more memory to keep all the notes sounding. Compatibility with Yamaha’s free Smart Pianist app lets you connect a smart device and perform operations such as Voice selection and Song playback.

This ARIUS digital piano is a finely crafted instrument made possible by culmination of over a century of advanced Yamaha technologies and expertise.
