The Appeal of the CLP-800 Series

Yamaha’s CLP-800 range is designed to replicate the expressive depth of an acoustic grand piano, allowing pianists to shape tone through variations in speed, depth, and touch. This means every performance on the CLP-825 feels natural and personal, with limitless tonal variation available at your fingertips.

The Convenience of Digital

Unlike traditional pianos, the CLP-825 gives you complete flexibility. Silent practice is easy with headphones, Bluetooth lets you stream audio directly to the piano, and integration with Yamaha’s Smart Pianist app makes it simple to adjust settings, change voices, or layer sounds. With built-in lesson songs and recording capabilities, the CLP-825 is a versatile instrument for practice, performance, or simply enjoying music at home.

Playability and Sensitivity

The GrandTouch-S™ keyboard recreates the feel of an acoustic grand with a broad dynamic range and excellent consistency across the keys. Escapement and textured key surfaces add to the realism, making long practice sessions comfortable and expressive.

Thanks to Grand Expression Modeling, the CLP-825 also responds to the nuances of your playing, capturing subtle differences in velocity and touch to create an unlimited range of tones, just as you’d expect from a real grand piano.

Sound Quality

At the heart of the CLP-825 are samples from Yamaha’s flagship CFX concert grand and the legendary Bösendorfer Imperial, giving you two of the world’s greatest piano sounds in one instrument. The inclusion of Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) means every note interacts with the others in real time, producing authentic resonance and depth. The onboard speaker system has been carefully designed to project a rich, full sound, whether you’re practising quietly or filling a room with music.

Smart Pianist App Integration

The free Yamaha Smart Pianist app expands the capabilities of the CLP-825. You can adjust tuning, transpose keys, and change settings like pedal response and lid position right from your phone or tablet. The app also allows you to split or layer voices, place your piano in different virtual “venues,” and access your full music library with ease.
