Features
The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-130/120 digital piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playabil-
ity as well as Yamaha’s original “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling (CLP-130)/AWM Stereo Sampling (CLP-120)” tone-
generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a special “Graded Hammer” keyboard that provides graded key
weight and response throughout the keyboard range.
The CLP-130/120 Grand Piano 1 and 2 voices feature totally new samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert
grand piano. The CLP-130 Grand Piano 1 voice features three velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), special
“Sustain Sampling” (page 88) that samples the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings
when the damper pedal is pressed, and “Keyoff Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released.
The CLP-130/120 comes much closer to the sound of a true acoustic piano.
