ENJOYMENT THAT LASTS

With its rich tone and effortless playability, the ARIUS captures the essence of a real piano. It inspires you to sit down and play—turning everyday moments into music you’ll want to return to again and again.

BEAUTIFUL, EXPRESSIVE CFX SOUND

The YDP-145 features a piano Voice sampled from Yamaha’s world-renowned CFX concert grand, delivering sparkling highs, powerful bass, and rich harmonic detail across the entire keyboard. With its clarity and nuance, the YDP-145 responds authentically—whether for daily practice or your most expressive performances.

Authentic Acoustic Piano Playability with Half-Damper Pedal Control

The 88-key GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard faithfully reproduces the touch of an acoustic piano, offering a naturally heavier feel in the lower keys and a lighter touch in the higher octaves. This design delivers a grand piano-style response, enabling rapid note repetition and nuanced expressive control. Additionally, the half-damper feature authentically simulates the gradual damper action of a grand piano, allowing for subtle dynamic variation and rich tonal expression.

Harmonic Resonance Like a Grand Piano — Virtual Resonance Modeling Lite (VRM Lite)

A defining feature of a grand piano is the sympathetic resonance generated as vibrations travel throughout the instrument. The YDP-145 faithfully recreates this rich resonance through Yamaha’s advanced Virtual Resonance Modeling Lite (VRM Lite) technology. VRM Lite simulates the intricate sympathetic tones that occur when string vibrations interact with the soundboard and other strings, responding dynamically to the timing and intensity of your key presses and pedal use, resulting in a deeply expressive and nuanced sound.

Rich, Powerful Sound with Tone Escapement Construction

The YDP-145 features a newly developed tone escapement construction built into the back of the cabinet, allowing sound to emanate naturally from within the instrument. This design delivers authentic acoustic piano characteristics, providing three-dimensional resonance and a rich, immersive tonal experience.

Rich Variety of Built-In Songs and Intuitive Operation with Smart Pianist App

The YDP-145 not only delivers authentic grand piano sound but also offers a diverse range of 10 built-in Voices, including electric piano, organ, vibraphone, and strings.

It comes with 353 built-in songs, featuring 50 famous classical pieces and 303 practice exercises from renowned methods such as Beyer, Burgmüller, Czerny, and Hanon.

The instrument is also compatible with Yamaha’s free Smart Pianist app. Simply download the app to your smart device and connect it to the piano* to access an intuitive interface for controlling Voices and exploring built-in song scores. The app also includes a comprehensive Piano Room function, allowing you to adjust tonal quality and resonance settings for a fully customizable piano experience.

Enhanced Listening Comfort When Using Headphones

The YDP-145 features advanced technology that optimizes sound balance according to your volume settings, delivering a natural, comfortable tone that is easy on the ears—even during extended playing sessions.

It also includes the Stereophonic Optimizer effect, which recreates the spacious, immersive sound of sitting in front of an acoustic grand piano, providing a realistic and enjoyable listening experience through headphones.

Stylish Design That Complements Your Room

The YDP-145 combines clean, straight lines with the graceful curves characteristic of a grand piano, creating a refined and elegant appearance. A variety of colour options allows you to choose the perfect finish to match your interior and personal style.
