P-125 Digital Piano

The “P” in Yamaha’s P-Series stand for “piano.” P-Series digital keyboards have other sounds, but their main features are piano sound and piano action. The Yamaha P-125 is the best home piano Yamaha has ever produced in this price range.

The P-125 is an 88-key digital piano with Graded Hammer Action. GHA imitates the feel of a grand piano. That means a heavier action at the bottom and a lighter action across the top. Apart from exciting piano sounds, the Yamaha P-125 has electric pianos, clavinet, strings, vibes and more. You can listen to it through its built-in speakers or headphones. You can also plug the P-125 digital piano into an amplifier.

Yamaha P-125 Piano Sounds

The P-125 musical keyboard uses Yamaha’s Pure CF Sound Engine. Yamaha is a leader in digital keyboards, and you can hear it in keyboards that use the Pure CF piano. The P-125 includes Yamaha's CFIIIS 9', one of the world’s most well-known concert pianos. It is shown in great detail in the Yamaha P-125. Even in an inexpensive digital piano, even using an on-board sound system, the CFSIII’s dynamics and expressiveness come through.

Accuracy in the Pure CF Sound Engine

Part of what makes an acoustic piano rich and engaging is the resonance of the cabinet, the behavior of other strings in the piano, and the mechanics of the instrument. All of these details are part of the Pure CF Sound Engine. Yamaha’s String Resonance recreates the sounds of other strings resonating. Damper Resonance DSP recreates the sound of dampers off the strings. Key-off samples trigger the sound of dampers falling back to the strings.

Weighted Keyboard with GHS Touch

Yamaha's Graded Hammer Standard weighted action has a heavier touch in the low end and a lighter touch in the high end, just like an acoustic piano. This makes it easy for a student practicing the Yamaha P-125 digital piano to perform on an acoustic piano. A matte finish even makes the black keys less slippery when you play a long time. A lot of detail goes into the design and manufacture of the Yamaha P-125 digital piano.

Enhanced Sound System

You need a good sound source and great action, but you also need a quality sound system. The Yamaha P-125’s two-way system separates bass and treble for greater presence. The tweeter position is in line with your ears, so melodies and other treble passages are brighter and clearer. This separation of frequencies makes all of the instrument sounds come alive.

USB Connectivity

The P-125 is great as a home practice and performance piano, but it is also equipped with a USB to Host output. This allows you to connect it to your computer. It transmits on all 16 MIDI channels, allowing you to control virtual instruments from your keyboard.

The Yamaha P-125’s Immersive Sound

Yamaha’s Stereophonic Optimizer adjusts the distribution of sound in when you are using headphones. With the Optimizer turned on, the sound seems to come from the piano, rather than the headphones. It is a satisfying way to play and enjoy your Yamaha P-125 digital piano.
