Description
Elevate your musical journey with the Yamaha P-90 Digital Piano, a versatile and portable instrument designed for both aspiring musicians and seasoned professionals. Combining advanced technology with Yamaha's legendary craftsmanship, the P-90 delivers an authentic piano experience that fits comfortably into any setting—whether you're performing on stage or composing in your home studio.
This digital piano features Yamaha's Graded Hammer Effect, offering a realistic touch that mirrors the nuanced feel of an acoustic piano. The keys in the lower registers provide a heavier touch that gradually lightens as you move up the keyboard, allowing for expressive play. With Dynamic Stereo Sampling, each note resonates with clarity and depth, dynamically changing in timbre based on your touch, ensuring every performance is rich and vibrant.
Despite its robust sound capabilities, the P-90 is remarkably lightweight at just 37.3 pounds, making it easy to transport to gigs or rehearsals. Plus, with its 64-note polyphony, you can play complex pieces without the fear of note cutoff. The inclusion of essential voices, from classic pianos to jazz and church organs, offers a diverse palette for any musical genre.
For the tech-savvy musician, the P-90 also includes a PC-MIDI interface, allowing seamless integration with your favorite music production software.

- Graded Hammer Effect keyboard for realistic touch
- Dynamic Stereo Sampling for expressive sound
- Lightweight and portable design
- 64-note polyphony to prevent note cutoff
