Improved sound quality and keyboard feel
AHL Sound SourceDual-element Waveform
Dual-element AHL* sound source for exquisite tone quality
The dual-element system uses waveforms of separate samples of the same notes at strong and light key pressures.
A spring-less hammer system that is similar to the one used by grand pianos provides a keyboard touch that is naturally firm. Lower notes play relatively heavier than higher notes, just like the keys on a grand piano.
Touch Response
Touch Response lets you add delicate nuances to notes by varying how much pressure you apply to keyboard keys.
Digital effects
Use effects to add reverb for more depth and breadth in your music.
Full Force Sound Speakers
These speakers powerfully and clearly reproduce a wide dynamic range from the bass range to the treble. The newly developed speaker system delivers fat, rich, high-quality sound.
Chord Book
You can use the Chord Book to look up chords you do not know how to play. You can hear what a chord sounds like and a simple operation even shows you inverted forms of the chord, making the Chord Book a valuable reference.
