It offers the player a specially-developed grand piano action that features the same configuration as the action of a real grand. The hammers strike the \"strings\" from underneath, allowing minute adjustments to the weight distribution of the hammers, and to the movement of the hammers themselves, for a smoother feel when playing. In addition to a hammer sensor, this instrument employs a non-contact key sensor that has no effect on the movement of the keys, affording excellent recognition of the player's pressure on the keyboard, timing, and the other delicate nuances that affect musical expression. This combination provides an impressive sensitivity for the entire range from pianissimo through to fortissimo, and the ability to translate even the swiftest trills of the pianist with transparency. The wood construction of the keyboard mirrors that of the grand piano, and features New Ivory II on the white keys. This is a unique material developed by Yamaha, with a texture superbly close to that of natural ivory, allowing you to play swift passages with ease while also offering a sure response for slower pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"links list-unstyled\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"d269089\" class=\"gc h3-image-left\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"heading\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnique acoustic-sampling approach and speaker system born of a radical rethink of the entire sound production process.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003eWith the introduction of the AvantGrand, Yamaha ignited a revolution in the approach to sampling recording and playback of the notes of the actual acoustic piano. Treating the soundboard not simply as a point source of sound but as a plane, we took samples at four positions, adding optimum centre and rear locations to the traditional left and right. As a sound source, we carefully selected the best single instrument from among our CFIIIS full concert grand pianos for sampling. The end result of these efforts is that AvantGrand series instruments recreate the original sound of a superb grand piano almost to perfection. Meanwhile, the AvantGrand’s speaker system has been designed to ensure that this sound is heard best at the playing position. A three-way system featuring woofer, mid-range and tweeter speakers reproduce the rich natural resonance of the soundboard accurately. What’s more, each of the low-, mid-, and high-frequency bands has been given its own amplifier to prevent interference between bands. This innovative configuration allows the instrument’s outstanding sound system to reproduce the nuances of each individual note. For even greater sonic accuracy, while the N2 feature speaker layouts optimised for the size of the instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"links list-unstyled\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"d269090\" class=\"gc h3-image-left\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"heading\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Tactile Response System (TRS) recreates the sensation of piano body vibration.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003eThe sound of an acoustic piano resonates throughout its entire body. The bass range in particular is an essential part of the reverberation that is continually transmitted to a player's body. In the AvantGrand, this is replicated by our newly-developed Tactile Response System (TRS) that focuses on reproducing reverberation. This system features two transducers in the soundboard, the area underneath the keyboard, resonating natural reverberation throughout the entire instrument. The player receives the natural sound felt from hands touching on the keyboard; the epitome of real piano playing. This system can be turned on and off, and the vibration set to one of three levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,471 mm (57-15\/16\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeight\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e1,009 mm (39-3\/4\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,181 mm (46-1\/2\") (with music rest raised)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDepth\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e531 mm (20-7\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeight\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e142 kg (313 lb, 1oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44092718874849,"sku":"YAMAHA N2","price":10959.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/6457\/9484\/files\/N2_angle_liddown.jpg?v=1725094012","url":"https:\/\/www.fairdealmusic.co.uk\/products\/yamaha-n2-avantgrand-hybrid-digital-piano","provider":"Fair Deal Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
