Clavinova CLP-635 Console Digital Piano with Bench

The CLP-635 is an ideal home piano. At its heart are meticulously sampled Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial pianos along with Yamaha’s widely acclaimed Graded Hammer 3X (GH3X) keyboard action with escapement feel.

Binaural CFX sample makes playing with headphones a truly immersive experience in that it recreates the perspective of the player’s position through a set of headphones. Now with Key-Off samples as well as Damper and String Resonance samples, the CLP series has never sounded better. Connect to your iOS device or your computer using the USB port to experience a wealth of entertainment and educational apps. USB audio recording and playback even captures or plays back performances on a USB drive.

GH3X (Graded Hammer 3X) keyboard action with synthetic ebony & ivory keytops is a technology exclusive to Yamaha that features three sensors and an escapement mechanism, creating a response and feel that is very much like that of a grand piano.

Binaural CFX Sampling technology delivers a three-dimensional sound that creates the perspective of the player position through headphones. Key-off samples deliver the delicate change in sound the instant the damper falls back to the string, and String Resonance recreates the sympathetic sounds of other strings resonating, emulating to a fine detail the behavior of acoustic pianos. Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) allows for vivid and richly varied expression that reflects the limitless number of factors contributing to the sound of a concert grand piano.
Damper Resonance DSP recreates the sound of the inside of a grand piano when the dampers are off the strings. The combined effect of all of these nuances of the piano samples creates an extraordinarily satisfying musical experience.

The CLP-635 also includes drum rhythms that are fun to practice and perform with. They can sometimes be a real and practical alternative to a metronome. A 1/8 in. AUX input takes output from a portable music player, iOS device, mixer or computer and uses the instrument's speakers to play back the audio.

The CLP-635 is where the CLP lineup starts to redefine what to expect from a digital piano. The re-designed interface lets you browse the 36 high-quality instrument Voices with ease. Choose from two world-class concert grand pianos, the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial. New to the CLP-600 series, you'll experience the sound of the binaurally sampled Yamaha CFX through your headphones. You can enjoy the realism of Virtual Resonance Modeling, and high-quality digital effects through the on-board stereo speaker system. Play along with built-in rhythm patterns and record your performances using the built-in USB audio recorder.
