![]() ![]() Other Digital Features Not Available On Acoustic Pianos The subtle vibrations genuinely mimc the feel of an acoustic grand piano. You can also adjust the intensity of the TRS system, so you can experience more or less reverb. If the subwoofer isn’t enough to allow you to feel the sound - the TRS system will take care of it. Yamaha’s proprietary Tactile Response System (TRS) uses transducers to send reverberations through the whole piano into the pedals and keys. ![]() This is not the case in a standard digital piano, with which you will notice a simple spring action in the pedal. The damper pedal on a Yamaha AvantGrand N3X hybrid piano actually mimics the resistance one feels in the pedals of an acoustic piano, and as a result, the pianist can half-pedal and exert more control over the pedaling mechanism (Kawai’s acclaimed digital hybrid piano also allows for half pedaling). If you’ve played enough digital pianos or electric keyboards, you know that the pedals either have no resistance whatsoever, or they have a one-dimensional and artificial kind of resistance that prohibits you from half-pedaling or feeling the mechanism. Digital pianos can’t replicate the feel of a key with actual hammers behind the scenes. But how is this different from the weighted keys on a digital piano?įrom one pianist to another, let me tell you - it feels exactly like a high end concert grand piano. The keys feel like an acoustic piano but they interact with the piano’s computer to produce a recording of a digitally sampled sound. The Action On a Digital Hybrid Pianoĭigital hybrid pianos have traditional hammers and escapements, but no strings of course. In fact, you can feel it - but more on that in a bit. If you ever get the opportunity to play one of these instruments, you will be absolutely blown away by the richness of the sound. Yamaha’s AvantGrand N3X has 12 total speakers to spatially project the sound in a natural way, and each speaker has its own amplifier. ![]() Lastly, digital hybrid pianos project the sampled sound with high end speakers - the small speakers of electronic keyboards wouldn’t do it justice. Casio’s piano hybrid samples the magnificent Bechstein D-282.ĭigital hybrids also have a built-in acoustic piano soundboard as well - this amplifies the sound in the same manner as a traditional acoustic piano. So when you depress a key, you are hearing that piano. Different brands sample different instruments Yamaha records the sound of its own CFIIIS concert grand piano. How Do Hybrid Pianos Work? How Do Hybrid Pianos Produce Sound?Īs mentioned above, digital hybrids use sampling rather than midi functionality. ![]()
