The Clavinova CSP-200 Series digital pianos allow even beginners to play their favourite songs with ease.
It features unique Stream Lights, which guide you to the keys to play next, and the Smart Pianist app that lets you enjoy the instru- ment with your smart device. With an authentic playing feel and rich tonal quality like that of a grand piano, it offers profound playing enjoyment.
Each model of the Clavinova CSP-200 Series includes the Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial grand piano sounds. While CSP-255 and CSP-275 have an 88-key GrandTouch-S™ weight- ed keyboard for a piano-like feel (CSP-275 even has real wood keys), the CSP-295 and CSP-295GP
include a realistically expressive 88-key GrandTouch™ counter- weighted keyboard. The luxurious, elegant CSP-295GP also provides GrandTouch™ pedals that recre- ate the unique resistance of grand piano’s pedals, heavy when depressed and light on release.
Moreover, the free Yamaha Smart Pianist app provides intuitive operation of the instrument and can be connected wirelessly even via Bluetooth® MIDI.

(CSP-295GP)
The GP ResponseDamperPedal of both CSP-295 and CSP-295GP
offer a grand piano-style resistance curve, starting out light to the touch and growing heavier as the pedal is depressed further. This allows players to become accustomed to the nuances of delicate pedaling.
The GrandTouch™ Pedals of CSP-295GP
even offer the unique friction felt when using a grand piano pedal, heavy when pressed and light on the return. They also feature a mechanism with the fulcrum in a similar position to that on a grand piano, bringing the playing experience that much closer to a grand.
The bass, mid, and treble speakers are optimally balanced
and placed accordingly in the body to simulate the sound image of a grand piano. Additional bidirectional horns in CSP-
295 deliver an abundance of sound, creating a natural sound field akin to the resonance from a grand piano
soundboard. In addition to the resonance and dynamic range created by the grand piano shape, the CSP-295GP is equipped with Waveguide which makes
the sparkling highs of the instrument resonate far and wide to both players and listeners. Drawing from our experience in building both acoustic pianos and high-end speakers, the CSP-295 and
CSP-295GP speaker cones use pulp from the same spruce wood used to make acoustic piano sound boards. The result is a more natural, piano-like attack to the sound that is more piano-like when you play the keys.
The Yamaha Smart Pianist app gives you complete, detailed control over the instrument from your smart device. This intuitive app makes it easy to select the desired Voice from a variety of instrument sounds, and even switch between different virtual performance spaces and their acoustic environment (for example, a concert hall or cathedral).
The app is available at the App Store and Google Play.
Even if you can’t read music, Stream Lights—used with the interactive scores shown in the Smart Pianist app—guide you to the keys to play next, making your practice more enjoyable. You can also set the function for the left or right hand only, or slow the tempo at the hard parts to help you practice. There is even a Guide function that pauses the song until you play the correct keys.
PRACTICE YOUR FAVOURITES AMONGST THE EXTENSIVE LINEUP OF PRESET SONGSThe Clavinova CSP-200 Series features an ample selection of preset songs, from well-known popular and classical tunes to practice exercises. View the sheet music on Yamaha’s Smart Pianist app, and use Stream Lights to guide your practice sessions. Moreover, you can add new songs to your collection on the app.
