EXPRESSIVENESS THAT PERFECTLY TRANSLATES YOUR MUSICAL INTENTIONS

The superb natural feel of a real piano action. Experience the stunning sound of Yamaha’s premier concert grand piano in the comfort of your home. Alluring elegance that complements any room.  Traditional sensibility meets modern practicality, the new NU1XA is a sleek and compact AvantGrand that transcends convention and blurs the lines between acoustic and digital.

NATURAL TOUCH WITH ACOUSTIC UPRIGHT PIANO ACTION

The NU1XA utilises a complex and elaborate upright piano action mechanism that transmits the delicate movements of the keys to the hammer. It responds accurately to the subtlest nuances and expressive intentions of the player, including delicate performance techniques such as trills and continuously repeated notes. In addition, the keyboard is made of wood, just as with an acoustic piano, providing a solid, natural response.

REMARKABLY DETAILED EXPRESSIVENESS WITH THE YAMAHA ARTICULATION SENSOR SYSTEM

The NU1XA features our newly developed Articulation Sensor System, which accurately and continuously captures the pianist’s subtlest performance nuances, through non-contact electromagnetic sensors and Yamaha's proprietary algorithm. This system utilises two separate sensors on each key: one for the hammer—the most crucial part of the acoustic piano sound mechanism—and the other for the key itself, to precisely measure the movement of finger release and articulate exactly the special nuances when the sound stops. Together, they fully capture the most delicate expressions of the player.

GRANDTOUCH PEDALS FOR EVEN BROADER PERFORMANCE RANGE

The damper pedal on a grand piano responds with slightly different resistance to the player’s foot, depending on when the pedal is pressed, when it begins to have effect, and when it is held down. Skilled players generally pedal while feeling these subtle differences in resistance, and add their own delicate variations to the tone and sound. Moreover, when the pedal is released, there is a different change in resistance than when being pressed. The GrandTouch Pedals feature adopts a fulcrum structure similar to that of a grand piano, delivering the same expressive and familiar pedal-pressing feel, and further expanding the performance range.

RESONANCE THAT FILLS THE PERFORMANCE SPACE LIKE A GRAND PIANO

The very moment the hammer strikes the strings, the sound is immediately heard by the performer, and at the same time, the entire instrument resonates, filling the room with gorgeous sound. In order to faithfully reproduce this unique sonic experience created with a grand piano, the NU1XA employs a new sound system. It features upward-facing woofers that deeply resonate throughout the instrument and tweeters with a newly designed horn structure that resonate in the high frequencies with the front and back of the instrument. Together with these synergistic resonance effects, the tonal quality and sound projection gives the player meticulous real-time control over the sound as they perform, resulting in an amazingly realistic grand-piano-like sound that expands three dimensionally throughout the performance space.

AUTHENTIC FORTEPIANO VOICES FOR REALISTICALLY PLAYING AND EXPERIENCING PERIOD INSTRUMENTS

The NU1XA features four additional piano voices that authentically reproduce the sound of the “fortepiano” from the 1700’s and 1800’s. These let you experience the characteristic sounds of the pianos of those eras in which famed composers such as Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin lived, and allow you to deepen your understanding of the composers’ intentions in the scores written during those times.

EVEN MORE MUSICAL FUN WITH SMART DEVICE APPS AND BLUETOOTH® CONNECTIVITY

Download the free Smart Pianist app to your smartphone or tablet, connect it to the NU1XA via Bluetooth®, and then enjoy the powerful functions and intuitive control you have over the various features and operations of the instrument—all while looking at your smart device’s screen. You can select the built-in Voices while seeing realistic illustrations of each instrument, as well as use the metronome and tuning controls with greater ease.
