The specialist’s opinion
The Yamaha U3 is known for its superb durability and thanks to recent advancements in Yamaha’s manufacturing processes, the current model enjoys exceptional stability while offering particularly precise feel and crisp tone.
It offers great playing pleasure for virtuosos and easy work for beginners.
— The soundboard and the enlarged acoustic chamber give it increased power and projection. — It benefits from the unparalleled tonal and expressive control offered by the Yamaha mechanism. — The production of a warm, voluptuous and defined sound quality. — The keyboard cylinder retarder: A shock absorber mechanism prevents the keyboard cylinder from falling suddenly and therefore eliminates any risk of injury or material damage. — The U3 is also equipped with the sostenuto pedal: When you press the pedal, the last note you played continues to sound, while the others are muted. A simply exceptional piano …
All the advantages of the TransAcoustic system:
Thanks to the possibility of amplifying the silent system directly on your piano’s soundboard, you can adjust the volume without having to wear headphones.
— Bluetooth allows you to input the sound from audio data saved on a Bluetooth device such as a smartphone to this instrument and output it through the piano’s built-in speaker.
— The USB TO HOST input allows you to connect a computer or other digital devices and record yourself in high quality without adding other interfaces, — AUX OUT output allows you to output the signal to an external amplification (Hi-chain fi, recorder, amplified speakers, etc.).
— The AUX IN input receives external sound sources.
— The MIDI OUTPUT transmits the information of the game to an external device such as a synth.
— The MIDI IN input receives the performance information like a sequencer to use the TransAcoustic tone generator.
Performances can be recorded in two different ways:
— Either you can record directly into the piano’s memory.
Using memory is more interesting when you want to listen to yourself directly.
This allows you to work on a piece by listening to it and then repeating specific passages.
— Or on a USB medium, in which case the stored data will be in WAV format readable by all digital devices.
Once the songs have been recorded in WAV format, they can be written directly to CD or portable players.
