Yamaha’s P Series digital pianos are loved by piano players around the world who want the
comfortable feel of an acoustic piano in an instrument with a more manageable size and weight.
Compared to its predecessor, the P-225 features a much shorter and thinner body design with a
compact style. This model looks beautiful from any angle, and blends in well with any room. To
achieve a smaller product chassis, we developed the new GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard (88keys), which is built to uncompromising standards and offers the same weighted acoustic piano-like playing feel as the GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keys used in previous models in the P Series.
Newly developed GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard offers a realistic playing
feel
One of the main concerns of piano players when purchasing a digital piano is related
to the feel of the keyboard when they play. Some of the things that players are specifically
concerned with include whether they can feel the weight of the keys in their fingers as with a
weighted acoustic piano keyboard; whether the keyboard will respond accurately when they play
quicker passages; whether there are any inconsistencies between how hard they play the keys and
the sound that results; and whether the keyboard offers a sufficient soft-to-loud dynamic
range. The GHS keyboards used in the P Series thus far have received high praise from customers
for the excellent balance and ease of playing that was mentioned above. The newly developed and
more compact GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard on the new P Series reproduces the playing
comfort of its predecessors in every way. Further, the keyboard unit is more compact than in
previous models, while still offering an outstanding playing feel.
The sound of Yamaha’s premier concert grand piano, the CFX
The P-225 gives you the
sound of Yamaha’s top-of-the-line CFX concert grand, with shimmering highs and powerful lows.
This model is equipped with Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) Lite, a digital technology that
realistically reproduces the complex resonance produced by the strings of a grand piano,
changing each time according to how the keys are pressed. With the P-225, you can enjoy the
sound of a concert grand that’s played and loved by renowned pianists, along with its
infinitely realistic resonance. Of course, this instrument doesn’t require tuning.
Place the instrument wherever you like, or even take it with you
One trouble that
plagues pianists is that the traditional piano is often too large to fit into a room. To add to
this, piano players can’t take their instruments out with them. The P-225 provides a brilliant
solution to these problems. The stylish design of this instrument blends well with any room,
and is available in black or white color variations to match the mood. With the optional soft
case, you can take this instrument with you to the studio, to live gigs or on a trip—whenever
you need it.
Access the features of this instrument with greater ease from the app
By linking the
P-225 with Yamaha’s dedicated “Smart Pianist” digital piano app, you can intuitively perform
all operations on the P-225 from the screen of your smart device. There’s no longer any need to
pull out the manual to see how things work.
*When connecting a smart device to a musical instrument to use the app, you can either use a
cable or connect wirelessly using the Yamaha UD-BT01 (sold separately; for iOS only).
Minimalistic design featuring only carefully selected functionality
The P-225 is a
design that perfectly embodies the expression, “less is more.” Most people who love playing the
piano as their instrument don’t want a lot of rarely used features. The P-225 offers a simple,
modern form factor to meet the needs of such people.
