Essential Sounds
The P-140 brings users an exceptional range of instrument voices,
from organs and harpsichords to the new, all-in-one piano & string
dual voice. Recorded using Yamahas own AWM sampling technology,
all onboard voices accurately reproduce the subtlest harmonics of
the actual instrument with stunning realism.
Dynamic Stereo Sampling
To offer truly authentic sound, Yamaha takes piano voice sampling
to a whole new level. With three separate layers of stereo samples
each set at a different velocity, Dynamic Stereo Sampling changes
not only the volume, but also the harmonic structure of the notes
depending on how hard you play the keyboard just like a real
acoustic piano! An exclusive fourth sample layer recreates a pianos
unique sustain resonance whenever the damper pedal is pressed, while
key-off samples add even the most subtle sounds of felt dampers coming
to rest on piano strings. Better still, the P-140s newly designed,
built-in powered speaker system directs your music forward for unbeatable
sound.
Realistic Piano Action
The P-140 features Yamahas highly acclaimed Graded Hammer Effect
keyboard, the result of more than a centurys worth of piano
craftsmanship and ingenuity. Its designed so that the keys in
the lower registers have a heavier touch than those in the upper,
which helps to create the feel of an acoustic piano. Just take a look
at the different-sized hammers under the lid of any grand piano and
youll see why Yamaha puts the Graded Hammer Effect keyboard
in all P-Series instruments.
Stylish Design and Matching Keyboard Stand
The sleek and stylish P-140 is designed to impress with rounded corners,
built- in speakers, and a new orange LED that is sure to turn heads.
These new features are all built into a compact chassis available
in either silver or black with wood top panels of maple or dark oak
respectively. Whats more, these stylish designs are perfectly
complemented by the P-140s optional, slim keyboard stands in
either color.
Build in sequencer for your very own music
The P-140 offers a little sequencer with 2 tracks - the perfect companion
to sketch your own musical ideas. Its memory holds up to 11,000 notes
in up to 3 songs. Enough space for your musical creation.
