The keyboard is the GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) which means that the keys are weighted just as they are on a real grand piano. The keys are a slightly heavier feel at the lower end of the keyboard and graduate to be slightly lighter at the the higher end. The YDP143 uses Yamahas superb 'Pure CF' sound engine which ensures that you hear a very high quality sound of the Yamaha CFIIIS concert grand piano. The piano also features 'Damper Resonance' which recreates the acoustic piano's depth of tone whilst pedaling. There is an all new reverb effect which allows you to sound as though you're playing in a variety of environments and with 192 note polyphony available, you won't be experiencing note 'drop off'. The YDP143 is also equipped with 'Half Pedal', whereby the sustain is gradual depending upon the position of the pedal and you can record your performance with the 2 track recorder. The YDP143 also boast 10 great sounds, from piano, digital piano to strings and organ. A built-in song library of 50 preset songs is also accompanied by a book which also contains the sheet music for you to play along with or practice. Connectivity is taken care of with the dual headphone sockets and the USB-Host connection to allow you to connect up to your DAW. What we think... A really great piano for anybody who's either starting out or is a seasoned performer, the YDP143 doesn't fail to impress. The piano is nice and compact and being available in a choice of finishes (Rosewood, Black Walnut or White) it's guaranteed to look good in any environment. The piano tone is very rich and detailed and the half-pedal feature really gives added control over your performance. Barry - Blackpool Store The new Arius YDP-143 digital piano gives you an authentic acoustic piano touch and tone perfect for any aspiring pianist. The popular Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) keyboard action helps build up finger technique and strength for an easy transition to playing an acoustic piano. The improved Pure CF Engine delivers an expressive, high resolution recreation of the incredible Yamaha CFIIIS concert grand piano, whilst Damper Resonance digitally recreates depth of tone when pedalling and newly improved reverb spatial effects help bring to life the feeling of playing in a variety of different environments. With its huge 192-note polyphony, many of the most complex piano compositions can be played without any fear of dropped notes. Piano sound quality only possible from Yamaha The Pure CF Sound Engine is the result of many years of piano-making history and expertise, combined with state-of-the-art sampling technology. Yamaha is the industry leader in digital piano technology, and this is evident when listening to Yamaha digital pianos that utilize the Pure CF Sound Engine. The sound of the renowned Yamaha CFIIIS 9' concert grand piano is faithfully reproduced, allowing for incredible dynamics and expressiveness, making Pure CF-equipped digital pianos worthy of the Yamaha name. Superb playability and feel A Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) 88-key piano keyboard provides a heavier touch in the low end and lighter touch in the high end, and is similar to the hammers inside an acoustic piano. GHS is great for the aspiring pianist, because practicing with the GHS action builds proper finger technique for playing on an acoustic piano. Additionally, the matte finish of the black keys makes them less slippery when playing for extended periods of time. Pedalling provides an added level of realism Half-damper pedal control creates more detailed nuance and subtlety when playing, similar to pedalling on a grand piano. This feature allows for continuously increasing lengths of sustained notes, from slight to full, as the sustain pedal is depressed.Stereo Sustain samples provide mellow reverberations when the player depresses the damper pedal. Similarly, Damper Resonance provides broad and deep resonance when the pedal is used. The r

This piano sounds great and no different to an acoustic piano (to my uneducated ears anyway). It looks good and was fine to assemble. My six year old daughter is learning to play on it and it seems a good fit for her.
