Amazing sound and playing experience
Every Yamaha Clavinova model features "Real Grand Expression" sound. This system integrates sound, touch and pedals into a perfectly integrated sensation of playing a real grand piano. In fact, the grand piano voices of the Clavinova CLP440 were obtained by recording the sounds of an actual Yamaha concert grand piano. When you play a Clavinova you will feel as though you are playing a grand piano. The touch, feel, response and sound combine into the ultimate playing experience. Along with the piano voices you also have access to a wide selection of musical instrument voices, including electric piano, harpsichord, guitar and strings, which you will find many opportunities to use.

Realistic touch and feel
The touch of the Clavinova CLP440 keyboard has been praised by pianists, the secret behind this superior feel and response is the same hammering system and spring-less mechanism as found in grand pianos. The Clavinova Graded Hammer 3 Keyboard faithfully reproduces the keyboard touch of an acoustic piano from the heavy feel in the lower range to the light feel in the higher range. Yamaha has a unique three-sensor system, which accurately senses and interprets the behavior of the keyboard, just like a grand piano.

Synthetic ivory keytops
Synthetic ivory keytops feature a soft, slightly porous surface that gives keys added grip and natural friction for improved ease in playing. The keys' smooth, refined texture imparts a feeling of luxury and is easy to clean. The Yamaha Clavinova CLP440 strives for as realistic an approach to pianos as is possible in a digital upright.

Recording/USB functionality
The Yamaha CLP440 has built-in recording functions. One function lets you record your playing and on playback you can select which hand you would like to hear, left, right or both, which is a great way to evaluate your performances. You can also store performances on a USB drive. Once recorded you can take your recording to a computer for playback, or even load them on portable music devices. You can hook your Clavinova CLP440 directly to a computer, via a USB cable, and store performance data to transfer between other Clavinovas.
