Yamaha P-525 White digital piano features

GrandTouch-S keyboard for grand piano-style playing

The digital piano is equipped with the GrandTouch-S keyboard, the same one found on Yamaha's top-of-the-range Clavinova digital pianos. This keyboard is designed to give a playing sensation very close to that of a grand piano.

With GrandTouch-S, every note you play reacts differently depending on the strength or speed of your keystroke. This allows you to play with more emotion and variety, just like on an acoustic piano. This keyboard is perfect for expressing your musical sensibility, whether you play softly or energetically.

The solid wood keys offer a natural, pleasant feel. Their special construction makes them strong and durable, so your piano will remain reliable for years, even with intensive use. This keyboard is ideal for beginners who want to progress, or for experienced musicians looking for a realistic experience.

Two concert grand sounds in one compact piano

The P-525 brings you the exceptional sounds of two famous concert grand pianos: the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial. The CFX is renowned for its brilliant treble and powerful bass, while the Bösendorfer Imperial offers a warm sound, typical of the Viennese tradition.

Even in its compact format, the P-525 reproduces all the richness and depth of these world-class pianos. So you can enjoy two distinct sound styles, whether you're playing classical or modern pieces. It's like having two concert pianos in your home, but in an instrument that's easy to move and set up.

Immerse yourself in the iconic sounds of yesteryear

The P-525 offers realistic sounds for legendary instruments like the organ, electric piano and many other classical keyboards.

The engineers behind these sounds are true music enthusiasts, experts in organs and electric pianos. Their mission? To recreate with surgical precision the typical sounds of these iconic instruments. Every detail has been carefully considered, from reverberation and distortion to the Leslie effect characteristic of organs. The result? Sounds that capture the essence of the legendary tunes of the 70s and 80s, giving you an authentic, totally immersive musical experience, as if you were playing the original models.

The P-525 simplifies your live performances with its registration memory. This function lets you save your favorite settings (tones, rhythms, effects) and recall them quickly. Perfect for gigs in cafés, bars or small venues: prepare your settings at home and activate them with one click on stage.

Changing sounds during a song is child's play. With its Sound Boost function and adjustable equalizer, the P-525 ensures that you'll always sound good, even in a noisy band or environment.

A multitude of tones for unlimited creativity

The P-525 offers a wide range of 542 tones, including 44 exclusive sounds, 18 drum kits and special effects (SFX), plus 480 XG tones*, covering an impressive variety of instruments.
