It is not for gigging musician, or someone with limited space, or limited budget. My DGX670, which you can get for 800£ also has cfx VRM, so I don't get why it is so hyped here like it is something special that this one has.

@@strongchord4384 The CP88/YC88 action is far superior to whats on this, played them in store last sunday, CP88/YC88 Still the best action on a keyboard to this day
Nice to hear the tech side of the products as well as usual demo of sounds , jacks great and i enjoy all of the youtube demonstrations from Andertons nice work people 👍
Check out the Kawai models which have wood keys before you buy the Yamaha. I retired from digital piano service a couple years ago an Yamaha was having a major failure of key switch contact circuit boards. They could not pinpoint the problem and they were just sending me whole new complete contact board assemblies. Often on back order for weeks. Plus they have stingy labor reimbursement rates for their authorize technicians. If I had to drive two hours for a service call, they would pay a mileage rate but not any labor time other than the actual time at the piano.
This man is a great representative for Yamaha! What a top bloke. But one can still hear that it's a digital piano. Why? No matter how good the technology is, it's still just based on sampling and not modeling. So there's only so much you can do.
Yes, this sounds exactly the same as my P515 from nearly a decade ago. Also the NWX action on it is good enough for me to play Chopin Preludes and pretty advanced pieces.
I'm watching it and can't really understand what's the upgrade from older CLP-7xx series (which has been released on 2020). Don't you think it's important to mention ?
Looks pretty cool, but if Im spending this sort of money, Im getting a used Yamaha U3 any day of the week. Speakers are just never the same. Also its a bit over the top with the sales pitch.
I have the clp 625 and I don't see any improvements other than Bluetooth. Yamaha should add more features rather than largely re-release the same thing and trying to make it appear different. CFX, Bosendorfer imperial piano samples, binaural sampling, string and damper resonance, graded hammer action with synthetic ebony and ivory key tops and the other features mention all exists on the 625 model.
you are ignorant. completely different keyboards with a long lever on the 875, and not with a short one on the 625, different acoustic systems, and the main thing is the length of the samples, on the 625 they are short! I am telling you this as the owner of the 625! in addition, the 625 does not have such extensive settings for all parameters, and the 875 even allows you to choose the method of tuning the strings of 7 types, you can switch the transposition with the pedal and a lot of other things that the 625 does not have. and finally, the sound of the samples is simply incomparable, are you tone-deaf?
@@GrumpyOldGuy777 probably also worth noting that the older clp 625 has binaural sampling for CFX and Bosendorfer where as the 825 does not, it's CFX only.
Omg, what am I watching lol….. the history of piano (beautifully explained I must say) and but here comes the sounds ……and hey….these are the same 12 yr old samples repackaged lol👏👏well done
Even the most complex virtual VST pianos only sound as good as the speakers putting out the sound. And HD audio has existed for 20+ years, so it´s less about the samples then the rest - which cannot easily be improved.
I ended up with the 845. Grand Touch S felt better to me than Grand Touch. Seemed a bit softer and closer to what i am used to. Purely personal but suggest everyone try both.
I don't see why someone wouldn't choose the NU1X over this. That really is an actual piano action. Feels like Yamaha are competing with themselves in this segment
This salesman seem to be "at the wrong occasion" ... so i'm impressed by the calm politeness of Jack Even me - a fullblown keyboard- and music-in-general-idiot - would just have stated: "stop it and come up with the beef" This salesman is all about emotions and relations ... ...

Wow, what a great video in every way! I've actually been fortunate enough to try this piano out and the actual feel of both the sound and action is absolutely stunningly great. Awesome to get the insider expert tech view of the greatness!
Why isn’t there an advert/sponsored logo or something at the beginning of this video, because this is just a very long advert, what an absolute waste of time. I really enjoy your videos generally and they, on the whole, feel very honest but this was a waste of time to hear a Yamaha salesperson speak nonsense for 35 minutes
I have seen alot of reviews and I like the detail on this one. I have already been set on the clp 795 for a while. Dose these have the same chip, or oporatting system?
I've played the model with the lesser tier action, the GrandTouch S. It sounds like marketing exaggeration, but they really did get the weight perfect. There was a C7X right next to it, and the weight was spot on. Unfortunately, I didn't like the overall feel of it for other reasons--it felt...weak? Unstable? Not in a way that it was going to fall apart, but it felt like I was pressing a crumpled paper ball everytime. But the sheer touch weight was perfect.
That's v interesting. So can you confidently say the GrandTouch S is as 'heavy' as a real grand? I would prefer this, as I find digitals often too 'light', leaving the fingers unprepared for a real action
@TheSunlight74 From a physical standpoint, the irony is that grands can usually have lighter actions than digitals, but subjectively I know what you mean. If you're looking for a heavier action, you might want to look at the older models with the NW-GH action, found on the CP/YC88, CP4, or the similar NWX found on the P515 and whatever those cabinet equivalents would be.
Nice video :) I was visiting a local Piano store a couple of months back. My friend there said ""Try this!" and showed me a Grand and handed me a pair of headphones. "First play acoustic!" I did, then he moved a lever or something under the Grand "Headphoine time!" - It was a Bösendorfer and the sound with headphones were basically the same as acoustic, presenting that lid-open allaround sound we all love from Grand Pianos. I was speechless, or rather "WTF, how do they do that?" - Amazing tecnoligy! And likely the reason Yamaha have it now, owning Bösendorfer. The Bösendorfer in the video was spot on btw, beauuuutifull!
@@audiosaucer2124 it's calld a silent system. It workes by lowering what's calld a "mute bar" preventing the hammers from hitting the stringss so you can hear the prerecorded sound threw headphones. Yamaha was the first to come up with the technology in 1993🎹🎶
It sounds great! I wish that I can get this level of sound in a stage piano. I believe that Yamaha can do this. Have you all noticed that every 5+ years that the piano sounds in digital stage pianos gets better by only small increments? A little better...a little better... well they have to make some more money. I have been trying to decide on which dp to get but I am disappointed by the lack of warmth and dynamic range of the sounds in them. While I like the CP and YC boards, I am still not impressed by the dynamic range of the piano sounds.
First of all too expensive. Second of all after thinking that a digital piano would last longer and cost less due to no tuning I had to discover that the rubber contact points where the keys hit the electronic plates inside deteriorate relatively quickly and it is expensive to replace and quite an elaborate task to replace them
I hear binaural samples. Did you record through the line output or through the headphone output? Why is there such a strong high-frequency white noise? Why is the noise unstable and sometimes increases and sometimes becomes weaker. I noticed this not only in your video. Is this a low-quality built-in amplifier? My old 625 does not have such noise at the headphone output. There is a slightly audible noise, but not that strong.
For all The bluster about the merits of the sound of this instrument, I’m always surprised as to why the player doesn’t let the notes sustain for way, way longer. It’s the only sure way of getting a sense of how good these samples really are.
got the chance to play the acoustic CFX the other day. lovely but I guess I'll stick with the CFX Grand preset... I am not even worthy of the real one :)
Ok and imma let you finish but this is literally a FALSE grand piano experience!! Duh! (I actually like Yamaha digital pianos, got one upstairs, but I'm not trying to tell anyone it's a "true grand piano" experience)
After ten minutes I said "enough" -- too much talking (from promo folder), too little playing. As for DP itself, it is still furniture. Portable is the way to go, and not even for going outside with it, but home "maintenance", like moving it. This beast is listed as 87 kg. Put some effort to actually using lighter material and shaving the weight.
At risk of sounding picky. It’s 100% not a grand experience and really shouldn’t be advertised as such in any way in my view. It also seems counter intuitive for a Yamaha guy to extols the advantages of a digital piano directly over those of an acoustic grand piano. I’m a piano tuner, of course I understand the differences but, wonder if explaining them can be done in a way not to come across as though an acoustic piano is somehow the lesser choice against what is clearly a lovely sounding digital piano.
Having been an authorized electronic keyboard tech for 36 years I can guarantee digital pianos are not maintenance free. Every brand has had issues with design failures in their action. I recommend any one considering buying one to make sure there is an authorized technician within 60 miles of you for the brand you are considering. Many have 5 year parts and labor warranties. You do not need regular tunings, but the key switches, the hammer cushions, the action friction points all will eventually have a failure. And an acoustic piano technician cannot repair the digital pianos. Also be sure to plug it in to a good surge protector.
That caustic noise is quite inadequate and unrealistic. Perhaps once when technology reaches a level to include actual space noise via microphones and use it in realtime processing they would be able to simulate sound resonance more accurately.
The problem is not just with capturing those sounds but with reproducing them. Do you have an acustically optimised room and massive multi-channel speaker system?
I’m a bit confused about whether to buy the Yamaha P-145 or P-225. I love Yamaha’s sound, but when it comes to key action, some professionals recommend the Roland FP-30X. Andertons’ keyboard channel has never given much importance to key action in any of their videos
I didn't touch any of those, but I already read new Yamahas have shortened keys (so pivot length is smaller). Personally currently I removed Casios and Yamahas from my wish-list. I would go with either Kawai ES-120 or Korg D1. I also consider Kurzweil KA S1, I know the quality will be lower, but maybe I need semi weighted keys?
@@SynthLife-sd6gb What do you want to achieve? Play piano? Then get a real one. Practise scales and licks? Then go for the best sound at a given price.
Better tell me about how terrible the design of the keys is in this instrument, and how long it will last. ua-cam.com/users/shortsgjWw_7IH2vI?si=S8GxJDBIJS50PQgX
I returned this piano back to our store. The keyboard is just terrible, as each key sounds different and much louder than my second clp 625. Also, almost all the black keys were defective, which were knocking on one right side. But they did not admit this as a defect.
First check is a huge fail: It's an upright, so what's with the "Grand Piano Experience"? I lost all interest at that point. Without the grand piano frame/design, the sound/action is irrelevant. Upright is fine if you don't have space but an upright can never match the presence and beauty of a grand piano. If anything, Yamaha should increase the size of their digital grand pianos.
I’m probably going to have to stop watching this as I’m being more critical now than I’d like. The upright sample is nowhere near the quality of a Yamaha upright such as the U3. For the money, you’d really want it to be rather than just the concentration on the grand options. Chaps a good player by the way.
The sound of this piano was not good. It’s very synthesised sounding. I have the Kawai CA 79 and it sounds a whole lot better, more natural, than this, for roughly the same price.
@ the speakers sound great at home. Everyone is amazed at the sound and presence. No reliability issues at all so far, some three years later. Feels solid like it will last a lot longer.
This seems like the usual Yamaha AWM samples (and not true modelling). The presentation style is also very cheesy and off-putting - probably designed to bamboozle the average person at a music store. I think I’ll stick with my Yamaha CP1!
This video was so good that they're all already out of stock 😂 I'm not sure about the complaints in the comments, as a buyer this struck all the right notes (groan) especially the whole thing about holding down keys silently and getting the resonance. That's the sort of thing I'm looking for that my Nord just doesn't do.
Does it have a slight detune button? Slowly randomly detune over a few weeks. Until I press reset for good tuning. (option yamaha tuning and other options).
Who spends this amount of money on a digital instrument when you can buy three good pianos PLUS one decent electric piano for the night time at the same expense?

Dig the Yamaha guy, he’s passionate and knowledgeable. Also, an expressive player.
Get Carter.
Does anybody know the theme the man played at 15:55?
I think it was Winter Games by David Foster, main theme from Calgary Olimpics in 1988 😅

@ Thanx! Mystery solved 😉
It’s Winter Games by David Foster
First check is a huge fail: It's an upright, so what's with the "Grand Piano Experience"? I lost all interest at that point. Without the grand piano frame/design, the sound/action is irrelevant. Upright is fine if you don't have space but an upright can never match the presence and beauty of a grand piano. If anything, Yamaha should increase the size of their digital grand pianos.
I’m probably going to have to stop watching this as I’m being more critical now than I’d like. The upright sample is nowhere near the quality of a Yamaha upright such as the U3. For the money, you’d really want it to be rather than just the concentration on the grand options. Chaps a good player by the way.
The sound of this piano was not good. It’s very synthesised sounding. I have the Kawai CA 79 and it sounds a whole lot better, more natural, than this, for roughly the same price.
How does the speakers on c79 sound at home ? Also has it been reliable ?
@ the speakers sound great at home. Everyone is amazed at the sound and presence. No reliability issues at all so far, some three years later. Feels solid like it will last a lot longer.
This seems like the usual Yamaha AWM samples (and not true modelling). The presentation style is also very cheesy and off-putting - probably designed to bamboozle the average person at a music store. I think I’ll stick with my Yamaha CP1!
This video was so good that they're all already out of stock 😂 I'm not sure about the complaints in the comments, as a buyer this struck all the right notes (groan) especially the whole thing about holding down keys silently and getting the resonance. That's the sort of thing I'm looking for that my Nord just doesn't do.
Does it have a slight detune button? Slowly randomly detune over a few weeks. Until I press reset for good tuning. (option yamaha tuning and other options).
Top sounds too plinky and disjointed from the lower part. Top is too produced and effect laden.
3 minutes into the video and I just can't watch any further. All salesman talk. We are used to better than this from Andersons.

the ratio of speaking to playing really isn't great on this one tbh...
Who spends this amount of money on a digital instrument when you can buy three good pianos PLUS one decent electric piano for the night time at the same expense?
So ein Schwachsinn sorry!

@@i_rock_49 Gelächter!
Ich bin Pianist. Es muss ja nicht immer ein fabrikneues Steinway sein.
"setzen und Maul halten" kannst Du Großmaul. Armseliges Herumgeblöke Deinerseits.
@@i_rock_49 Das weiß ich bestens, ich bin Musiker und besitze zwei Klaviere.
Bist Du unangenehm und unreif!
@@i_rock_49 Was ist ein "gutes Klavier"?
Ich spiele lieber auf einem gepflegten gebrauchten Klavier als auf einem noch so teuren digitalen. Und ich verdiene damit Geld...
