Another great digital piano from Yamaha!
With the Arius YDP140, Yamaha draws on over a century of building fine acoustic pianos. The instrument represents an elevation in digital piano technology that boasts amazing piano-like sound and feel, yet manages to stay affordable. The exceptionally natural key touch of the Arius YDP140 virtually replicates that of an actual grand piano with its Graded Hammer Standard keyboard with matte black keytops. For sounds, the built-in AWM stereo sampled instrument voices faithfully reproduce their complete range from the soft, dark lows to the glistening, bright highs. The Arius YDP140 is an amazing value.

Realistic piano touch - Graded Hammer Standard
Drawing on over a hundred years of experience and craftsmanship in making world class acoustic pianos, Yamaha introduces the Arius series. All of these instruments provide exceptionally natural, grand piano-like touch, with realistic weight gradations-heavy in the lower end, and light in the upper. The YDP140 features the entry-level Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) keyboard with realistic matte black finish key tops. While technically an entry level action (beneath the more sophisticated Graded Hammer Effect), GHS is designed for budding pianists who require weighted keys to develop the proper playing technique for an acoustic grand. The damper pedal includes an authentic Half Damper effect, giving you nuanced expressive control over the sustained sound far more realistic than a simple on/off footswitch.
AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling - authentic piano sound
The Arius series digital pianos feature Yamaha's sophisticated AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) with Dynamic Stereo Sampling for the ultimate in instrument realism. Taken at different 3 levels of soft, medium and loud each key is comprised of multiple stereo recordings of an actual grand piano. This provides subtle differences in volume and timbre depending on how you play the keys, and gives you full expressive control over the sound.
