Yamaha CLP-735PE Clavinova Digital Piano with Bench (Polished Ebony)

A wealth of new features delivers the finest Clavinova experience ever

The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-735 delivers an unbelievable acoustic grand piano experience. GrandTouch keyboard action reproduces the touch, feel, and dynamic range of a concert grand better than ever. Looks can be deceiving. The onboard sounds have been expanded from 36 to 38 voices over the previous model. Updated CFX and Bösendorfer binaural samples sound stunning through headphones, while Yamaha’s latest Virtual Resonance Modeling simulates the vibrations and reverberation of a real acoustic grand piano through the CLP-735’s stereo speaker system, filling the room with thrilling, hyper-realistic sound. Fortepiano voices now allow you to perform and hear classical compositions authentically, just as the original composers did. Real Grand Expression 2 Modeling simulates the mechanics of the hammers, strings, and internal components of the piano. It all adds up to the most advanced Clavinova ever, the culmination of four decades of continual digital piano development by the world’s premier piano maker.

VRM physical modeling, for stunning realism and expression

In a grand piano, sound resonates throughout the body of the instrument, producing distinctively rich, room-filling reverberation. Yamaha uses their Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) to re-create this acoustical phenomenon in the Clavinova CLP-735. VRM calculates the various states of the strings from one instant to the next for each of the instrument’s 88 notes. This enables vivid, richly varied expression that reflects the infinite number of factors involved in a live performance, including the velocity with which you strike the keys, which keys are pressed, and your pedal timing. The exhilaratingly lifelike sound that emanates from Yamaha’s latest-generation Clavinovas has won over even the most discerning pianists. You simply must experience it for yourself.

Full-bodied resonance, just like an acoustic piano

In a process analogous to that of an acoustic piano, the Clavinova’s body materials and speaker positioning are meticulously calibrated to ensure that the instrument resonates optimally. To achieve a sonic image uncannily close to a grand piano’s, the CLP-735 employs tone escape ports in multiple locations throughout the cabinet; this allows the sound from the speakers to be projected naturally to the listener’s ears without getting trapped inside the instrument. The body of the CLP-735 has Acoustic Optimizers that control tone and regulate the flow of sound, for natural, smooth sonic richness across the entire keyboard range.
