Special optical sensors – fitted under each of the keys – capture the individual nuances of your playing with astonishing accuracy. It is this level of precision, so typical of Yamaha, that makes it possible to play natural-sounding notes with utmost accuracy, which are then relayed perfectly through your headphones.
How is a silent piano different to a digital piano?
If your heart desires a traditional acoustic piano, but your head is drawn to the convenience and practicality of a digital piano, opting for a silent piano could be the ideal solution.
Whilst digital pianos rely purely on technology to produce sound, silent pianos enjoy the best of both worlds.
Still a fully strung acoustic piano, the Yamaha SILENT Piano has built-in functionality allowing you to switch to quiet mode, play silently, and connect headphones and other devices – so you can enjoy playing without worrying about causing a disturbance!
Why choose a Yamaha SILENT Piano?
Yamaha is a world-renowned piano manufacturer. Releasing their first silent piano back in 1993, they have continued to evolve the concept, improving the performance of their sound-muting technology.
Yamaha SILENT Pianos are ideal for children who are learning or for anyone self-conscious about practising with an audience. They also make a great choice for people who prefer to shut out distractions or who have busy lives and only have time to play during more unsociable hours.
Silent pianos offer the freedom to play whenever the mood and opportunity take you – without having to compromise on the quality of your sound!
