YDP213

Just like Yamaha's flagship digital pianos, the YDP-213 uses its renowned AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation technology and true Stereo Sampling. With every key you play, you hear digital recordings (like an audio CD) of the same notes on a Yamaha acoustic concert grand piano. This exceptionally realistic, acoustic sound experience makes the YDP-213 a natural choice for pianists of all levels.

Besides outstanding sound, the YDP-213 offers incredibly natural piano touch. Applying the know-how acquired from over 100 years of crafting fine acoustic pianos, Yamaha has designed a remarkably expressive GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard. Similar to the popular Graded Hammer Effect action, GHS keys are weighted heavier on lower notes and gradually become lighter as you play up the keyboard. Pianist will notice the realism as soon as they start playing.

The classically beautiful wood grain finish, complete with a sliding protective key cover, tastefully matches virtually any decor. And with no need for the inner hardware of acoustic pianos, this digital equivalent is much easier to move. Best of all, because digital audio doesn't't fade or degrade, the YDP-213 is maintenance-free – there's no need for expensive, periodic tunings or other technical upkeep.

The Yamaha YDP-213 comes with a built-in music library of 50 popular piano pieces. These can either be used as practice aids or simply for your listening pleasure.

The built-in, one-song performance memory allows you to record anything you play. Play back to your creations for study or choose another voice and accompany yourself with a completely different sound! There's also a built-in metronome to help you keep perfect time.

No matter how big your room is, whether you have hardwood floors or the thickest carpeting, digital reverb puts your YDP-213 center stage in a variety of different listening environments. Choose the best reverb setting for the type of room you're playing in.

You can even adjust the responsiveness of the keys to the type of musician sitting at the bench. Heavy-handed players will appreciate the Hard setting that allows them to play naturally and still remain expressive. But when switched to Soft, life can spring from the performances of even the most timid beginner.
