Hybrid Piano

Combining over one hundred years of superb piano craftsmanship with the latest advanced technolo-

gies, Yamaha is proud to introduce a true hybrid acoustic/digital piano that meets the demands of con-

temporary musicians.

Authentic Acoustic Piano Touch with Special Grand Piano Action and Piano Keyboard

This innovative keyboard delivers the rich expressive quality of an acoustic grand piano, thanks to its finely

nuanced touch and exceptional response. Drawing on over one hundred years of expertise in crafting grand

pianos, Yamaha has created a unique and yet wholly traditional piano action mechanism for the AvantGrand.

The AvantGrand offers a special action that features the same configuration as the action of an acoustic grand

piano. The movement of the hammers and the weight distribution of each hammer have been meticulously

adjusted to give this instrument an exceptionally smooth feel. The keyboard also features real-wood keys, just

as on a real grand piano, letting you enjoy an authentic touch and feel that goes far beyond any existing digital

piano.

The Realistic Ambience of Grand Piano Voice

The AvantGrand features Yamaha’s original “Spatial Acoustic Sampling” tone-generation sampling technol-

ogy for the grand piano voices. The voices are sampled from four positions around a grand piano, not only

from the left and right (as on most digital pianos), but also from the center and rear.

The instrument also utilizes the “Spatial Acoustic Speaker System,” in which each speaker is equipped with

its own dedicated amplifier. This is essential for preserving the sonic integrity of each frequency range and

making sure that the nuances of each sound are reproduced naturally with absolute clarity.

These technologies provide rich resonance and sonic power heretofore only available on an actual grand

piano.

Best Condition without Tuning

Unlike acoustic pianos, the AvantGrand does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune even after

long-time use.

Flexible Volume Control

The AvantGrand gives you full control over the instrument volume, letting you adjust the level just as desired.

Also, you can play or listen in total privacy through one or two pairs of headphones.

1 Connecting the power cord

1-1 Set the voltage selector and insert the power cord plug to the [AC IN] connector. Refer to the “Panel Con-

trols and Terminals” on page 8 for information on the location of the [AC IN] connector.

WARNING

Make sure your instrument is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used. (The voltage rating

appears on the name plate on the bottom panel). Connecting the unit to an inappropriate AC supply can seriously

damage the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!

1-2 Insert the plug on the other end of the power cord to a standard AC outlet.

WARNING

Use only the AC power cord supplied with the instrument. If the supplied power

cord is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced, contact your Yamaha dealer.

The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard!

WARNING

The type of AC power cord provided with the instrument may be different depend-

ing on the country in which the instrument was purchased. (In some areas a plug

adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in

your area.) Do NOT modify the plug provided with the instrument. If the plug will

not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

2 Opening the fallboard

Using the hand grip on the front, lift open the fallboard.

CAUTION

Hold the fallboard with both hands when opening or closing it.

N1 Owner’s Manual • 11

Playing the Keyboard

The instrument has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the

pedals on an acoustic piano.

Damper (Right) Pedal

The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an

acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer.

Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes. The

damper pedal features a half-pedal function.

What is the half-pedal function?

This function allows the sustain length to vary depending on how far the pedal is pressed. The farther you press the

pedal, the more the sound sustains. For example, if you press the damper pedal and all notes you are playing sound a

bit murky and loud with too much sustain, you can release the pedal half way to subdue the sustain (murkiness).

Sostenuto (Center) Pedal

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal

while the note(s) are held, those notes will sustain as long as you hold the

pedal (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently

played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a

chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.”

Soft (Left) Pedal

The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The

soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed.

Connect a pair of headphones to one of the [PHONES] jacks located on

the bottom left of the instrument. When the headphones are plugged into

either of the [PHONES] jacks, the internal speaker system is automati-

cally shut off

Two [PHONES] jacks are provided. You can connect two sets of stan-

dard stereo headphones. (If you are using only one pair of headphones,

you can plug them into either jack.)

CAUTION

Do not listen to the instrument at a high volume level through headphones for a

long period of time, or your hearing may be damaged.

Using the Pedals

Using Headphones (option)

When you press the damper pedal

vals to the range of a singer or other instruments.

song as though it were in C major, and this instrument will transpose it to F major.

the desired amount of transposition. Holding down both controls shows the current

amount of transposition.
