Features
GrandTouch keyboard with wooden keys
The CLP-885 features Yamaha’s GrandTouch keyboard with long key pivots, wooden white keys and a refined escapement feel to mirror the response of a concert grand. The extended pivot gives even control towards the back of the keys, supporting natural technique and consistent articulation in fast passages and delicate pianissimo. Textured key surfaces aid grip during longer practice sessions, while graded weighting and counterbalanced keys help dynamics feel smooth from the lightest touch to a powerful fortissimo.
Flagship concert piano voices with advanced modelling
Enjoy the character and depth of world class concert grands, including Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial voices, enhanced with virtual resonance modelling for natural body and damper resonance. Binaural sampling for headphones provides an immersive, three dimensional experience that feels open and realistic when practising quietly. Subtle pedal behaviour is captured by a responsive damper system, so half pedalling and nuanced shading translate cleanly into the sound.
Immersive speaker system for room filling sound
A multi speaker design projects a rich, detailed tone that fills your space with piano sound, while careful cabinet acoustics support clarity across the range. The result is a convincing sense of hammer, string and soundboard working together, whether you are playing gentle studies or larger romantic repertoire. At lower volumes, intelligent control preserves balance so practice is comfortable at home without losing presence or colour.
Modern connectivity for lessons and practice
Bluetooth Audio lets you play along with tracks from your device, while Bluetooth MIDI and USB connect to music learning apps and notation software. Dual headphone outputs make shared lessons simple, and a dedicated duo mode splits the keyboard into two equal pitch ranges for teacher and student. Onboard recording helps you review progress, and useful tools such as metronome, transpose and fine tuning support daily practice and ensemble work.
