Newly developed TransAcoustic️ technology transmits digital sound directly to the piano
soundboard, thus making the piano itself behave as a speaker.

coming from the entire instrument.
• Non-contact Optical Sensor System continuously measures the movement, timing, depth and
force of every key attack and release.
• Easy connection to audio and MIDI devices for recording, live sound or broadcast and it works
seamlessly with computers, mixing boards and Bluetooth️-enabled devices
TRANSACOUSTIC™ TECHNOLOGY
PLAY PIANO AT ANY VOLUME
TWO WORLD-RENOWNED PIANO SOUNDS
A BROAD SONIC PALETTE
TransAcoustic™ TA2 type offers total 20 pre-installed sounds such as electric pianos, harpsichord, organs, strings, choir, and synth pad, allowing you to select the ideal voice to match your preferred musical genre.
COMBINE ACOUSTIC AND DIGITAL SOUND
Thanks to their unique construction, TransAcoustic™ TA2 type allow you to layer the natural, resonant sound of the acoustic piano together with voices from the tone generator. Perhaps the most scintillating sounds are created by combining the acoustic and digital properties of the instrument—for example, gentle orchestral strings seemingly played from an acoustic piano—to achieve sonic textures with a natural quality not found on any other instrument.
PLAY-ALONG TO MUSIC
Enjoy playing along with any of the 50 preset songs that come with TransAcoustic™ TA2 type, accompanying your playing with songs you have recorded yourself, or even with commercially available songs played back through the sound board. You can play a duet with yourself, or you can just sit back and listen to the playback.
FEATURING SILENT PIANO™ SH2
Yamaha’s SILENT Piano™ SH2 technology allows practice sessions to be conducted with headphones. Yamaha’s SILENT Piano™ SH2 technology also features a superb binaural sample from the Yamaha CFX concert grand piano recorded using special techniques to perfectly capture the sound from the player’s natural listening position. These two technologies combine to create the perfect environment to play without disturbing others.
CFX BINAURAL SAMPLING *ONLY FOR SILENT PIANO™ MODE
VRM PHYSICAL MODELING-—THE DISTINCTIVE REVERBERATION GENERATED BY THE ENTIRE BODY OF A CONCERT GRAND PIANO *ONLY FOR SILENT PIANO™ MODE
STEREOPHONIC OPTIMIZER (PIANO VOICES OTHER THAN CFX GRAND) *ONLY FOR SILENT PIANO™ MODE
Stereophonic Optimizer is an effect which reproduces the natural sound distance, like with the sound of Binaural Sampling, even though you are listening to it on headphones. When one of the Piano Voices other than CFX Grand is selected, the Stereophonic Optimizer is enabled.
SMOOTH RELEASE-FROM STACCATO TO LEGATO, SUPERBLY EXPRESSIVE SOUND THAT RESPONDS TO THE PLAYER’S TOUCH
KEY-OFF SAMPLES
The moment a pianist’s fingers are lifted from the keys of a grand piano, subtle changes occur in the instrument’s tone as the damper is lowered onto the strings to mute its sound. Key-Off samples features actual recordings of these changes, offering a faithful reproduction of the most subtle changes in the piano’s sound, allowing for a more realistic performance.

METRONOME
