TransAcoustic Technology
Yamaha TransAcoustic technology creates a unique musical experience by using the piano’s soundboard to naturally amplify digital sounds. This innovative approach allows you to transform your acoustic piano into a concert grand, electric piano, organ or more with the push of a button. And, for the moments when you want to focus and play without disruptions, you can engage SILENT mode to practice with headphones.
