Features

Sound
Offering a huge range of tones thanks to Pure CF Sampling and AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling.*1
Pure CF Sampling gives CVP models a piano sound with superb tonal response and faithfulness to the original sound. They also benefit from AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling, which samples sounds at up to three levels according to keystroke strength, allowing the expression of delicate sound nuances. In addition to piano sounds, there are hundreds of other instrument sounds are available, so you can enjoy all types of instruments from strings to percussion while you’re playing the piano.
*1 AWM stands for Advanced Wave Memory.

Touch
A keyboard so well made, it feels like you're playing a grand piano.
Graded Hammer (GH) technology gives the CVP501 a remarkably natural piano touch and expressive response.

Ensemble
Familiar pieces are even more fun to play, thanks to a wide range of selectable auto accompaniment Styles.
A special feature of the CVP model is a wide selection of Styles that you can use for automatic accompaniment. All you do is play chords with your left hand, and you have your own personal backing band! You can add an intro or ending, or insert a fill-in. Styles such as Ballad, Dance and Country allow you to perform in any genre. In addition, the style guitar parts have been improved to produce even more natual guitar phrasing.
