Description

Authentic acoustic- and electric-piano sounds of unparalleled quality

Building on our decades of accomplishment in the production of stage pianos, we have delicately adjusted the sound of each individual key and realized perfect balance over the full length of the keyboard, creating full-bodied piano tones ideal for solo performances and ever-present sounds well suited for playing within an ensemble. Furthermore, by analyzing and replicating the sound-producing mechanisms of classic electric pianos using cutting-edge technologies, we have been able to achieve an extremely smooth response in the CP4 STAGE and CP40 STAGE keyboards. Through the modeling both of original pre-amplifiers and of effectors responsible for the rich variety of tones indispensable to quality sound production, we have faithfully reproduced many electric piano sounds now regarded as classics.

Wealth of voices and effects for greater flexibility in live performances

In addition to piano voices, your CP4 STAGE or CP40 STAGE also offers a diverse selection of other musical instruments, such as strings, guitar, and bass. With many versatile effects such as choruses and flangers also built-in, you can easily create a rich tapestry of different sounds for your stage performances.

Weighted hammer-action, 88-key keyboards that feel just like the real thing

The CP4 STAGE and CP40 STAGE employ an 88-key keyboard with a weighted hammer-action design that is virtually indistinguishable from an actual piano. The CP4 STAGE also features a wooden keyboard.

Easy overlaying and division of keyboard zones

Using your stage piano’s layering and splitting functions, you can easily layer the Parts that make up each Performance or assign them to specific left-hand and right-hand zones.

Record and playback functions for audio

Your CP4 STAGE or CP40 STAGE can record keyboard performances as audio data (Wave files) on a USB flash-memory device. Wave files from a USB flash-memory device can also be played back as backing tracks for your performances. What’s more, you can also connect a portable music player and output its audio from the stage piano together with the music being played on the instrument.

Convenient master-keyboard function

Using your stage piano’s master-keyboard function, which has been specially crafted for use in live-performance settings, up to four virtual zones can be set up along the keyboard and assigned to four different tone generators, including other MIDI instruments.
