What is a TransAcoustic™ Piano?
A TransAcoustic™ Piano is a genuine acoustic piano equipped with Yamaha’s cutting-edge technology that lets you:
-
Play as a traditional acoustic piano with full resonance.
-
Control the volume while still experiencing natural soundboard vibrations.
-
Play silently with headphones using advanced sensor technology.
-
Use your piano as a speaker, streaming digital sounds directly through the soundboard.
Instead of traditional speakers, Yamaha’s specialised transducer turns digital signals into vibrations, sending them directly to the piano’s soundboard. This creates authentic resonance and depth — even when the piano is played at a reduced volume.
The result: a flexible instrument that adapts to your lifestyle without sacrificing touch or tone.
