Features of your Yamaha p95
There are few things in this world that quite beat the sound of an acoustic piano. Your Yamaha p95 features an authentic piano sound for a small percentage of the price of a standard acoustic piano. This is awesome news as not everyone can afford to purchase an stand-up piano and with the price of houses these days, there are even less people that can afford a home with enough room to fit in piano in, especially a grand or baby grand piano. With the Yamaha p95 you can have the very best of both worlds, the beautiful sound at a supremely affordable price.
Not only do you want your Yamaha digital piano to sound authentic, you want it to feel like an authentic piano when you play it. If you are serious about your music then you will need to have a full sized keyboard so that you do not have to miss out on the ability to play those particularly deep and high notes that can add drama and flair to any performance. Your Yamaha p95 comes with 88 full sized, weighted keys featuring graded hammer action. Graded hammer action allows for a much richer playing experience and playing expertise, making the deeper notes feel ‘heavier’ and the high notes feel ‘lighter’. Furthermore you can adjust the keyboards touch sensitivity from Soft to Medium to Hard or Fixed which allows for an even more personal playing experience.
Your electric piano could look and feel great but if you cannot hear quality output, there is little point to the rest of the features. When conducting this Yamaha p95 review I was impressed with the top notch built in speakers deliver a rich stereo sound. When you can really hear the detail in your performance, really sense the subtleties in volume and pitch, it can be an extremely moving experience, the kind that sends a tingle down your spine. It is a magic moment when that happens.
One of the useful advantages of an electric piano over an acoustic piano is it’s ability to play different sounds. Your Yamaha p95 keyboard features two different acoustic piano sounds as well as eight additional sounds including the ever popular strings and choir. When you have these options available, you’re given the ability to create truly unique performances and interpretations of your favourite songs or songs you have written.
It can be very gratifying to know how good your keyboard can be when played to its potential. Your Yamaha p95 comes with 50 built in songs that are rich in beauty and grace. You may choose to listen to these songs for pleasure, for inspiration or even as reference for practice. You may even discover songs you did not know of but really want to learn thus broadening your performance repertoire.
Practice makes perfect
They say practice makes perfect but that is only true if you are able to easily identify errors and areas for improvement. Your Yamaha digital piano comes with a 1-track/1 song recorder which allows you to capture your performance and play it back allowing you all the time you need to critique your performance. If you are a songwriter then it is essential to be able to hear your music to put your lyrics to, which makes this a very useful feature. Maybe you can relate to the feeling of nerves when you go to play a song live to a very special someone. This recording feature allows you to display your talent to that person without the pressure of performing it in front of them.
Any trained musician will tell you how essential the timing of a song is to generating the right mood and atmosphere. They will also tell you how annoying it can be to find and set up a metronome to guide that tempo, risking it falling off where you have balanced it for the performance. Your Yamaha p95 comes with a built-in metronome with a tempo range of 32-280 bpm which is a good range so you should never be stuck for timing (I’d like to see a video of you playing a song at 280 beats per minute!).
User friendly and portable
People who have bought this keyboard and carried out a Yamaha p95 review have remarked at just how user friendly it is and how most controls are very intuitive. This means the Yamaha p95 manual may need to be referenced ocassionally but not frequently. When your keyboard sounds great, feels great and is easy to use, it is hard not to fall in love with it.
The other thing about the p95 is how easy it is to carry. Some keyboards are so big and heavy that you just about break your back getting them from venue to venue. Just the fact that you can most likely carry this keyboard with one hand makes it worth every penny. Imagine how easy it is to take this keyboard to various gigs or maybe to the homes of your nearest and dearest so you can share your gift with them.
Is there anything about the Yamaha p95 that people think could be enhanced?
A Yamaha p95 review wouldn’t be complete without noting some of the aspects that some feel could be enhanced. In this category we have the fact that the keyboard only has midi connections. Some feel it is a touch unfortunate that the keyboard does not have USB ports for connecting to the computer, however if you buy a midi-adapter then you will have absolutely no trouble getting your performances on to a computer. The other thing to note is that there are far more expensive keyboards on the market that have more ‘bells and whistles’. However, if you are looking for critical features that lead to an immensely enjoyable experience and thus great value for money, then your Yamaha p95 has those.
Overall, if you are looking for a great experience representing excellent value for money, you cannot go wrong with your Yamaha p95.
