It starts with a true acoustic action. More than 5,000 genuine parts, meticulously crafted to deliver the unmistakable touch of a Yamaha acoustic piano. Our groundbreaking innovations recreate the sound and feel of two legendary concert grand pianos, from the natural vibrations of the strings to the subtle harmonics and rich overtones. All with the power, colors and shadings for the most demanding repertoire. The more you play AvantGrand, the more you realize it’s not just a revolution in digital pianos. It’s a revolution in the piano.
Experience Pure Performance
Feels Just Like an Acoustic Piano
Featuring a sophisticated upright piano mechanism that captures every delicate movement, the NU1XA reacts faithfully to the nuances of your playing – from soft trills to repeated notes. And with its keyboard made of real wood, which provides a sold, natural response, you’ll feel just like you’re playing an acoustic piano.
Remarkably Detailed Sound
The NU1XA introduces our newly developed Articulation Sensor System. Using non-contact electromagnetic sensors and our proprietary algorithm, this unique system captures every intricate detail of your playing. With dual sensors on each key – one for the hammer and another for the key’s release – even the gentlest of expressions are perfectly represented.
Room-Filling Resonance
The moment the hammer strikes the strings, a grand piano comes alive, filling the room with gorgeous sound. The NU1XA is designed to replicate this experience. Its innovative sound features upward-facing woofers, as well as tweeters with a newly designed horn structure. Together, they create an amazingly rich and realistic grand piano sound that expands as it resonates throughout the performance space.
