Yamaha GranTouch GT1 occasion

The Yamaha grand piano action is prized among professionals for its unsurpassed sensitivity and responsiveness. Those same qualities are available now in a digital instrument. Incorporating an actual grand piano keyboard and action, the GT1 offers expressive control that is simply unprecedented in a digital piano.

Newly developed, continuous-position optical key sensors work with optical hammer speed sensors to deliver impeccable accuracy in timing, dynamics and the subtlest nuances of play. Pedal sensors, continuous position sensing for the sustain and shift pedals, complete the system, ensuring that every action of the pianist is faithfully reproduced.

Designed solely as a piano, the GT1 offers the highest level of piano sound reproduction. Tones are stereo sampled throughout their full range of modulation and dynamics from the CFIII-S concert grand. Even recreating harmonic resonance resulting from the sustain pedal's full or partial lifting of all dampers.

The GT1 not only plays and sounds like a grand piano, it even looks like one, though considerably more compact. classic curves, elegant detail and careful craftsmanship evoke the graceful lines of the traditional instrument, while fitting neatly into substantially smaller spaces. And, at less than half the weight of the smallest Yamaha acoustic grand, it's far easier to move and transport.

Though designed to deliver the performance of an acoustic, the GT1 also offers uniquely digital benefits. You can control the volume, or play through headphones without disturbing others. On-demand reverberation effects can simulate the acoustics of various playing environments. It never needs tuning, but offers easy pitch adjustment to match the tuning of other instruments. With the MIDI and AUX connections, it offers direct access to the world of electronic music.

It's 30 megabytes of memory - more than most of today's most advanced personal computers - provides the processing power necessary for this level of sampling sophistication, with a 60W per channel, four-speaker internal audio system to deliver the sound in all of its richness, depth and resonance.
