Overview
Perfect for beginning students and experienced players alike, the ARIUS / YDP series provides true piano sound and feel.
The Graded Hammer keyboard of the YDP-161 and the Graded Hammer Standard keyboard of the YDP-141 make them
a true joy to play, both in practice and in performance. The 3-level AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling Voices deliver
remarkably authentic sound. Moreover, the damper pedal includes a half-damper effect, giving you nuanced expressive
control over the sustained sound. Dual Voice capability lets you play two different instrument sounds at the same time,
while a 2-track song recorder allows you to capture your original musical ideas and performances.
Features
Graded Hammer (GH) (YDP-161)
Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) (YDP-141) Keyboard
Just as on a traditional acoustic piano, lower notes on a GHS keyboard
have a heavier touch, while the higher ones are more responsive to lighter
playing. The matte finish of the black keys enhances the keyboard’s
luxurious appearance. GH features an extra key sensor capable of
reproducing fast repetitive playing of a single note with perfect
articulation
Variable Touch Sensitivity
Select the hard, medium or soft setting to match your playing style or
finger strength. Turn off sensitivity for a fixed response setting, ideal
when playing the organ.
Advanced Wave Memory (AWM) Dynamic Stereo Sampling
The AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is a sampling system which creates
the realism 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 expression.
128-note Polyphony (YDP-161)/64-note Polyphony (YDP-141)
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 128/64-note can be played at once.
Damper Resonance (YDP-161)
Damper Resonance samples provide the rich and broadening tones
produced in pedaling. Using these comprehensive gradations, YDP-161
model can realistically reproduce the complex sounds of a grand piano.
Half-Pedal Control
It allows the sustain length to vary "step-by-step" depending on how far the
pedal is pressed. The farther you press the pedal, the more the sound sustains.
Song Recorder
The built-in, 2-track performance memory allows you to record a backing
track, and then step into the spotlight and solo over it. Best of all, you can
change tempo or Voices even after you've recorded your performance.
There's also a built-in metronome to help you stay in perfect time.
50 Preset Piano Songs
A selection of 50 different piano songs is provided for your listening
pleasure. These recordings were chosen for their beauty as well as their
functionality. Since many of the songs are classic piano pieces, anyone
taking lessons can listen to them for reference.
