The Yamaha P85 Digital Piano features an authentic, natural sound with remarkable expressiveness in a compact, affordable piano. This new Contemporary Piano gives you all the dynamic, high-quality sound and natural piano response you expect from Yamaha, along with a high-quality built-in speaker system—packed into a slim, exceptionally affordable digital piano you can play virtually anywhere. No compromises, full quality.

Exceptionally High-quality Sound
The gorgeous piano sounds of the P-85 feature meticulous digital sampling of a full concert grand piano—that change in tone and volume depending on how you play—thanks to Yamaha’s sophisticated AWM Stereo Sampling.

Realistic, Acoustic-like Touch Response
Enjoy authentic, naturally expressive key touch—modeled after an actual acoustic piano, from the low notes to the high—with the Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) keyboard.

Ultra-compact, Stylish Design
The attractive, slim, lightweight design of the instrument—less than 25 lbs—suits virtually any room decor, while the built-in speaker system fills your room with luscious sound.

Plays And Sounds Totally Pro
The P85 give you access to some of the most sought-after features in the digital piano market, the first being Yamaha’s celebrated Graded Hammer Standard action keyboard. The keys respond to the touch like a real instrument should, with smooth resistance and quick rebound. The graded action feels heavier in the bass and gets lighter as you move up the keyboard, emulating the gradual action shift of an acoustic instrument. And the Yamaha P85 sounds just as good as it plays, thanks to Yamaha’s AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) stereo-sampled grand piano sound set. Yamaha builds some of the world’s finest concert grand pianos, so they know exactly what a piano should sound like. The digital Yamaha piano experience is one made all the richer for that know-how, and the virtual instrument responds just like the real thing, with note timbre changing expressively the harder or softer you play. There’s also an input jack for footswitch sustain control, and a switch-style pedal (the Yamaha FC5) is included. Upgrade to a piano-style footswitch (like the Yamaha FC3), and the P85 allows for special half-damper sounds. In short: the P85 sounds like music should. Read more »
