Panel Controls and Terminals

The Yamaha CLP-280/270 Clavinova offers unmatched sonic realism and exceptionally natural grand-piano type
playability, and features Yamaha's original AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling technology for rich, authentic, musical
voices.
The CLP-270 utilizes a GH3 (Graded Hammer 3) Keyboard that varies the key weight according to the key range,
while the CLP-280 boasts a Natural Wood Keyboard that enhances the GH3 features (including real-wood white
keys), to reproduce as closely as possible the experience of playing an actual acoustic grand piano.
Thanks to these two keyboard types, you can use performance techniques previously possible only on grand
pianos—such as playing the same note successively and having 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 unnatu-
rally. The remarkably authentic Grand Piano 1 voice on both instruments also features:
• Dynamic Sampling, using velocity-switched samples for extra realism;
• String Resonance (page 88), which recreates the rich resonance of piano strings;
• Sustain Sampling (page 88), which uses samples of the resonance of an acoustic grand piano's soundboard and
strings made when the damper pedal is pressed; and
• Keyoff Samples, which add the subtle, characteristic sounds produced when keys are released.
