Features
The Yamaha P-90 Electronic Piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability as well as
Yamaha’s original “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling” tone-generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a special
“Graded Hammer” keyboard that provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard range.
The GrandPiano1 and 2 voices feature samples recorded from a full concert grand piano. The GrandPiano1 voice features
three velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), special “Sustain Sampling” that samples the unique resonance of
an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when the sustain pedal is pressed, and “Keyoff Samples” that add the
subtle sound produced when the keys are released. The P-90 comes much closer to the sound of a true acoustic piano.
