Clavinova Digital Piano with GH3 Action

The Yamaha CLP-340, finished in Rosewood, utilizes 4-level Dynamic Stereo Sampling in its Pure CF Sampling, for a remarkably realistic and richly expressive piano sound. GH3 keyboard with synthetic ivory keytops provides the touch of a real concert grand piano. In addition to the wealth of features, the Yamaha CLP-340 is equipped with a built-in LAN port to enable direct connection to the Internet for a wide variety of streaming piano radio programs and a selection of well-known method and exercise pieces.

Graded Hammer 3 (GH3) Keyboard with Synthetic Ivory Keytops - Just as on an actual grand piano, the lower keys are heavy in touch and the higher keys are light, with all the natural gradations in between. This technology also provides performance functions and expressive power found only on grand pianos, such as having repeated plays of the same note perfectly articulated, even when playing at high speed or with partial key release.

Pure CF Sampling for superb tonality - Yamaha technicians selected a CFIIIS full concert grand with the highest sound quality, and tuned it to the finest possible condition. They then used our unique Pure CF Sampling technique to sample all of its sounds, in order to create the CLP sound. As a result, you enjoy the same natural tonal response as a top-quality piano.

Advanced Wave Memory (AWM) Dynamic Stereo Sampling - The AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is a sampling system which creates sound close to that of an acoustic instrument by using digital technology to record the instrument sound and applying high-quality digital filter technology to the recorded audio samples. The waveform of the sound created by playing the key of an acoustic piano differs depending on the playing strength from pianissimo to fortissimo. The AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling can produce such dynamic nuances by recording samples of various playing strengths. The greater the number of samples used, the higher the expressive quality and potential becomes.

Selection of Voices - Choose from a large selection of other stereo-sampled musical instrument sounds to perform with. These sounds provide added realism for more music playing enjoyment.

128-note Extended Polyphony (max.) - Conventional digital pianos quickly run out of notes during fast, dense legato passages: sustained notes are cut off as the instrument "steals" notes to make room for new notes. A maximum of up to 128-note can be played at once.

USB TO DEVICE Terminal - Insert a USB flash memory in the USB TO DEVICE terminal on the Yamaha CLP-340. It would let you save or load the registered settings and user songs created on the instrument, as well as read data from the connected device.

USB TO HOST Terminal - Dive in and take advantage of the wide world of computer music software. Connections and setup are exceptionally easy, and you can play back your computer recorded parts with different instrument sounds - all from a single instrument.
