Description
Incredible sound only Yamaha can achieve
By merging the best of the CP Stage Piano with the organ-focused interface of the YC Stage Keyboard, Yamaha brings you a stage piano experience that can roar with fat-sounding synths or sing out with gorgeous pianos, organs, strings, brass, percussion, and more. However you prefer, Yamaha makes it easy to grab a sound and jam or minutely craft your unique sound. Users can access a host of onboard effects like reverb, delay, modulation, distortion, wah, filters, and rotary speaker effects. The graded hammer standard action keybed of the CK88 feels great under the hands for those wanting detailed expression similar to an acoustic piano.
Performance never felt so simple
The CK Series offers more than its incredible organs, synth, and piano sounds. You can split, layer, and mix sounds when you’re playing. For instance, players can split the keyboard at two points to play a vaporwave synth, a brass section, and a grand piano all at the same time. And you can dial in your synth sound with filter and envelope control. A Live Set function keeps performance setups stored in a memory bank for you to revisit later. Keyboardists can plug in a mic or other keyboard to perform using the A/D input. Lastly, a Bluetooth audio input makes playing along to your favorite tracks quick and straightforward.
Your 2nd in command and your roadie at the same time
Portability is the name of the game with the CK Series stage pianos. A one-to-one interface keeps your eye on the ball while making music, freeing you from intensive menu dives. The CK pianos also boast four zones of MIDI Master Keyboard Control, allowing you masterful control over hardware and soft synths. Yamaha equipped the CK Series with two customizable pedal inputs so you can double the expression. Unlike its previous brethren, the CK Series can run on battery power, so you can take it everywhere you play. Not to mention, the CK88 is lightweight at 28.9 pounds.
