6 R01 Owner's Manual

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. The authentic touch and feel of the
keys goes far beyond existing electronic keyboards, it
makes you feel as if you're playing a real grand piano.
This specially crafted keyboard 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
AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is an original
sampling system by Yamaha 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 R01's "Pure CF Voice" is
completely constructed from samples painstakingly
recorded from a Yamaha 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 four velocity-switched samples
(Dynamic Sampling), "Sustain Sampling" that samples
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.
