Lightweight and minimalist design
The "Piaggero" name is a fusion of the word "piano" and the Italian musical term "leggero," which means light. True to its name, the Piaggero is a remarkably lightweight instrument, offering exceptional portability. It even has the option to be powered by batteries, allowing you the freedom to take your piano anywhere without being restricted by weight or power requirements.
The NP-15 model boasts a sleek, minimalist design that echoes the appearance of an acoustic piano while maintaining the compact size and enhanced features of a digital instrument. Its controls are straightforward and user-friendly, ensuring that even those new to digital pianos can quickly become familiar with operating this versatile instrument.
Lighter key action
For those just starting their piano journey, the heaviness of the keys may be a concern, as it could lead to fatigue. However, with the Piaggero, this is not a problem. Its light key action ensures a realistic representation of your playing nuances without compromising the sound quality. Additionally, the lighter key action results in reduced mechanical noise. If you're concerned about disturbing others with the sounds produced by a fully weighted keybed, the Piaggero is an ideal choice.
Great sound in a small package
Although compact in size, the Piaggero features piano sounds sampled from a genuine Yamaha CFIIIS concert grand, resulting in a bright, clear tone with exceptional high frequencies and an authentically rich piano sound. To ensure the speaker system complements this impressive audio quality, Yamaha has employed their expert acoustic technology to create a robust sound that surpasses expectations for such a small instrument.
This enhanced audio performance is partially attributed to a more powerful amplifier than those found in the NP15's predecessors, allowing for significantly improved bass production.
Expand creativity with apps
Utilizing Yamaha's Smart Pianist App, adjusting settings becomes a breeze. Gone are the days of complicated button and key combinations to access various sounds or features. If you have a tablet, the Smart Pianist app can also serve as a score viewer for all your sheet music needs.
Additionally, with the Rec'n'Share app, you can effortlessly record video and audio of your performances and share them on social media platforms like YouTube or TikTok. The app ensures perfect synchronization, delivering crystal-clear audio directly from your Piaggero.
