This simple yet stylish ARIUS offers all the benefits of a digital piano whilst being designed by Yamaha to closely simulate the experience of playing a grander acoustic.
Authentic Acoustic Piano FeelYamaha have made use of their grand piano-making know-how to achieve a digital piano keyboard that offers a natural acoustic playing feel. The YDP-161’s keys demonstrate slight differences in touch, with the low sound regions of the grand piano being heavy to the touch, while the high sound regions become steadily lighter. With stability and endurance in response to any kind of performance, it offers the security and quality expected of Yamaha keyboards.Yamaha also focuses on the expressive power of pedalling. Three stable pedals are mounted, including the damper, the soft pedal, and sostenuto. The damper pedal offers a half-pedal response and can handle micro-adjustments of its strength giving you nuanced expressive control over the sustained sound.Realistic and Rich Yamaha TonesThe ARIUS YDP-161’s piano sound is sampled from the Yamaha Full Concert Grand Piano “CFIIIS”, which has won high acclaim at the world’s most famous concert halls and music competitions. The very top piano was selected, and an experienced tuner adjusted it to top condition. Sampling is carefully performed over a long period, from the sound start until fadeout, to reproduce a natural sound and attenuation that feels nothing like an electronic piano. In addition, Yamaha focus on the change in timbre due to the strength or weakness of the key strike that is so characteristic of acoustic pianos. Sound sampling covered more than 10 stages of key strike strength for each keyboard. The YDP-161 uses AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling to produce sounds that most closely express the piano characteristics, obtained through rigorous recording. The Yamaha development team spent a lot of time together with pianists in thorough pursuit of the optimum touch and timbre combination which resulted in the achievement of natural sound changes that sound like a person is actually playing a grand piano, no matter how the keyboard is played.The ARIUS YDP-161 also uses a new amp. The “Tone Escape” outlet for sound coming from the back of the keyboard has been widened which results in a clearer sound with increased volume feel. The maximum simultaneous tones are an ample 128 enabling full enjoyment of rich sounds. Based on Yamaha’s own technology, there is no unnatural sound cut-off even when the pedal is pressed and sounds overlaid, so a performance with full presence can be achieved, no matter what song is played.Perfect For PracticeWith 50 deeply familiar songs built in and a music book included with the piano, the ARIUS YDP-161 is perfect for practice sessions. Use the songs in lessons by adjusting to a slower tempo, or erasing one hand in the music to facilitate practice on that hand. Alternatively simply enjoy them as background music.This Yamaha can also record playing performances or your original musical ideas with the built-in memory being able to save one song at a time. Since it can handle 2-track recording, it can record model performances, or record performances on one-hand at a time, letting you enjoy piano duets all by yourself! Dual voice capability even lets you play two different instrument sounds at the same time.The ARIUS YDP-161 is an electronic piano with no need for tuning so it is effectively maintenance-free. It is fitted with two headphone terminals to enable practice without worry about sound volume. There is also a metronome function for keeping time, a headphone hanger, and other small conveniences.If you don’t have headphones you can still practice at home effectively and quietly. The Yamaha volume control knob allows for particularly detailed adjustment at low volume levels. Naturally, the sound volume can be raised up high for more impressive piano performances.Expand And CreateAdded extras include the option to use the Yamaha free software “Music Software Downloader” (Music Software Downloader is compatible with Windows only) to enable transfer of music data on the PC (MIDI data) to the instrument’s built-in memory in order to expand music enjoyment.Features/SpecificationsControl Interface:Number of Keys: 88Type: Graded Hammer (GH) KeyboardTouch Sensitivity: Hard/Medium/Soft/FixedNumber of Pedals: 3Half Pedal: YesFunctions: Damper, Sostenuto, SoftVoices:Tone Generating Technology: AWM Dynamic Stereo SamplingNumber of Dynamic Levels: 3Number of Polyphony (Max.): 128Number of Voices: 10Effects:Reverb: YesDual/Layers: YesSongs:Number of Preset Songs: 10 Demo Songs, 50 Piano Prest SongsRecording – Number of Songs: 1Number of Tracks: 2Data Capacity: 100KB (ca. 11,000 notes) for User SongRecording Function: YesCompatible Data Formats: (Playback) SMF (Format 0) – (Recording) SMF (Format 0)FunctionsMetronome: YesTempo Range: 32-280Transpose: -6 to 0, 0 to +6Tuning: YesStorage and Connectivity:Storage – Internal Memory: 337KBConnectivity – Headphones: x 2MIDI: In/OutAmplifiers and Speakers:Amplifiers: 20W x 2Speakers: Oval (12cm x 6cm) x 2Size & Weight:Width: 1,357mm (53-7/16″)Height: 815mm (32-1/16″)Depth: 422mm (16-5/8″)Weight: 40kg (88 lbs., 3oz)Included Accessories:Headphones HangerSong Book – “50 greats for the Piano”
