Yamaha CLP-885 Digital Piano - Concert Grand Sound Without the Space

See Why the CLP-885 Delivers Grand Piano Performance in Your Home

World-Class Grand Piano Sound in Your Home

Play the Same Pianos Heard in Concert Halls Worldwide

This is not a simulation—it is the actual sound of two legendary grand pianos captured note-by-note. The Yamaha CFX powers performances at Carnegie Hall. The Bösendorfer Imperial fills Vienna's Musikverein. Now they are both in your living room, ready whenever you are. Every subtle harmonic, every resonant overtone, every breath of expression—exactly as the concert pianist hears it.

Authentic Grand Piano Touch Without the Grand Piano Price

Keys That Teach Proper Technique From Day One

The GrandTouch keyboard feels like a real grand piano because it uses the same mechanism. Counterweights give you proper resistance. Escapement provides that subtle click you feel on acoustic keys. Wooden keys with synthetic ebony and ivory tops feel natural under your fingers. This is not just about comfort—it is about building correct technique from your first lesson. When you eventually play an acoustic grand, your hands will already know what to do.

Synthetic Ebony and Ivory Tops That Never Get Slippery

Keys That Feel Natural Even After Hours of Practice

Sweaty hands? No problem. These synthetic keytops stay grippy even during long practice sessions. Unlike glossy plastic keys that become slick, the textured surface mimics real ivory and ebony. Your fingers stay in control whether you are playing delicate passages or powerful chords. The natural feel reduces hand fatigue, so you can practice longer without your technique breaking down.

Natural Resonance Even When No One Else Can Hear

Headphone Practice That Actually Sounds Like a Real Piano

Most digital pianos sound flat through headphones—like you are playing a recording, not an instrument. Virtual Resonance Modeling changes that. It recreates how strings vibrate together, how the soundboard responds, how harmonics bloom and fade. Put on headphones at midnight and you will hear the same rich, living sound a grand piano produces. Your family sleeps while you practice with the full depth and character of an acoustic instrument.

Elegant Design That Complements Any Room

A Piano That Fits Your Home, Not Just Your Practice Schedule

This is not a keyboard you hide in a corner. The matte black finish and sleek lines make it a statement piece. It looks like furniture, not electronics. Whether your style is modern minimalism or classic elegance, the CLP-885 fits seamlessly. You will want to keep it visible, which means you will practice more often. The best piano is the one you actually play.

Control Everything, Learn Faster, Record Instantly

Your Phone Becomes Your Piano Teacher

The Smart Pianist app turns your phone or tablet into a complete piano control center. Change voices without reaching for the piano. See sheet music scroll as you play. Record your practice sessions with one tap. Analyze your playing to spot mistakes. It is like having a teacher sitting next to you, except this one is available 24/7 and never judges your mistakes.

Historical Fortepiano Voices for Authentic Period Performances

Play Mozart and Beethoven Exactly As They Intended

Classical composers wrote for the fortepiano, not the modern grand. The CLP-885 includes authentic fortepiano voices that recreate the sound Mozart and Beethoven actually heard. The lighter touch, the brighter tone, the different resonance—experience these pieces as the composers imagined them. It is like having a time machine for your fingers, bringing historical accuracy to your classical repertoire.

Two Instruments at Once for Richer Arrangements

Layer Piano With Strings, Or Split Bass and Guitar

Why limit yourself to one sound? Dual mode layers piano with strings for lush, cinematic arrangements. Split mode puts bass in your left hand and guitar in your right—perfect for accompanying yourself or creating full-band arrangements. Whether you are composing, arranging, or just experimenting, these modes unlock creative possibilities that a single piano voice cannot match.
