Yamaha ReFace CP - Piano Exclusive

US More than meets the eye 07/07/15

This is the last of our four videos (okay, depends on which order you watch them). The Yamaha ReFace CP is a piano specialist. Again with the mini keys - no matter which way you squint at them, this is what all four models have, the ReFace CP has electric pianos at its core. Additionally there are plenty of effects to tinker with in real-time, the usual phase/wah, chorus/tremolo, digital/tape delay and reverb.

But this is what makes this one so fun, you can really go to town with these, creating tones that would easily fit the Shaft or Dirty Harry soundtracks from yesteryear.

There's 128 voice polyphony so you can stomp on the damper pedal and let rip without limitation.

With the same stereo speakers, and battery power, there's also the same MIDI ports (via adapter) and USB (MIDI only) connections that all ReFace models have.

Tone Generator: SCM (Spectral Component Modeling) + AWM2
Six high quality keyboard sounds
Eight Vintage Effects
Five parallel Effects
128 note polyphony
Design and controls with "retro feel"
