Main Features

NW (Natural Wood) with synthetic ivory keytops
This type of keyboard features the feel of real ivory. The special Natural Wood keyboard also uses real-wood
white keys. The key surface is soft and slightly porous, giving the keys added grip and a natural friction that lets
you play easily. This authentic touch and feel of the keys goes far beyond existing electronic keyboards, making
you feel as if you're playing a real grand piano. The specially crafted keyboard also lets you use techniques only
possible on grand pianos, such as playing the same note successively and having the sounds blend smoothly even
without use of the damper pedal, or playing the same key quickly and having perfect articulation without the
sound cutting off unnaturally.
AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling
The CLP-380 features Yamaha's original AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling tone-generation technology that gives
the instrument its rich, authentic voices and unmatched sonic realism. AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is a
sampling system which creates authentic acoustic instrument sounds by using digital technology to record the
actual instrument sound and applying high-quality digital filter technology to the recorded audio samples. The
GRAND PIANO 1 Voice in particular features completely new samples recorded from a full-size concert grand
piano. Each sampled note has been adjusted and processed meticulously to ensure the very best sound—with
instantaneous attack and expressive response. This special Voice features three velocity-switched samples
(Dynamic Sampling), Sustain Sampling for recreating the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano's
soundboard and strings when the damper pedal is pressed, and Key-off Samples that add the subtle sound
produced when the keys are released. These sophisticated features and advanced technologies ensure that the
instrument sounds and plays virtually the same as an actual acoustic piano.
Tri-Amp System
The instrument has a built-in Tri-Amp System that features separate amplification for each speaker range—
high, mid, and low—providing greater clarity and accuracy from each speaker, ensuring optimum volume
balance for each octave range, and letting you enjoy richer, more natural, expansive sound.
The Acoustic Ambience of a Grand Piano—with the iAFC Feature
Turn on the iAFC (Instrumental Active Field Control) effect, and hear the sound expand around you—as if
you're playing on stage in a concert hall. Use the Spatial Effect to recreate and emphasize the natural sounds of
true acoustic instruments. The overall sound is deeper and more resonant, especially when using the damper
pedal (Dynamic Damper Effect).
Internet Direct Connection (IDC)
By directly connecting the CLP-380 to the Internet, you can use the special service on the Yamaha website that
enables you to automatically play back a wide variety of songs (song data) in various musical genres directly on
your instrument.
