Yamaha Clavinova CLP-835 Console Digital Piano – Matte Black

The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-835 delivers a refined acoustic grand piano experience in a sophisticated console digital piano design. Built on over four decades of digital piano innovation, this 88-key instrument combines Yamaha’s GrandTouch-S keyboard action with advanced sound modeling to reproduce the touch, tonal depth, and dynamic nuance of a concert grand piano in your home, studio, or teaching space.

Updated CFX and Bösendorfer binaural samples provide stunning realism, especially when playing through headphones. Yamaha’s Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) and Grand Acoustic Imaging technology work together with a powerful multi-amp speaker system to simulate the natural vibrations and reverberation of an acoustic grand. Whether practicing quietly at night, teaching a duet, or performing expressive classical repertoire, the CLP-835 offers an immersive and authentic digital piano experience.

Authentic Grand Piano Touch and Expression

The GrandTouch-S keyboard with synthetic ivory and ebony keytops and escapement replicates the subtle mechanical response of a grand piano, including the distinctive “click” sensation. Grand Expression Modeling captures even the slightest variations in touch, allowing pianists to shape tone with precision and musical sensitivity.

Premium Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Piano Voices

Featuring 38 onboard voices, the CLP-835 includes meticulously updated Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer samples with enhanced brilliance, brightness, and touch response. Fortepiano voices provide historically informed tonal character, enabling authentic performance of classical compositions as originally intended.
