Yamaha CLP-825 - white

The CLP-825 is a digital upright piano offered by Yamaha.

The Grand Expression Modeling and GrandTouch pedals offer expressive capabilities close to those of a grand piano, along with the sounds of two of the most sumptuous pianos: the Yamaha CFX and the Bösendorfer Imperial. A full range of digital piano functions, including Bluetooth audio.

The Clavinova CLP digital pianos are designed to replicate the feel and experience of a grand piano on a digital instrument, combining the latest digital technology with over 120 years of piano craftsmanship.

The new CLP-800 series incorporates several new technologies at every step of the process, to reproduce the complex interactions that occur inside a grand piano and offer pianists an unprecedented experience on a digital instrument.

The Highlights of the CLP-825

• Grand Acoustic Imaging technology with spatial sound that creates the ambiance of a grand piano.


• Thanks to the new sound generator chip, Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) technology produces richer and more natural resonance in this new generation series.


• A new sound generator chip delivers the most sumptuous and innovative piano sounds to date.


• Grand Expression Modeling technology now produces even more sound nuances based on the performer's technique.

The Key Features of the CLP-825

GrandTouch Keyboards and Pedals

The GrandTouchTM and GrandTouch-STM keyboards have been developed to recreate as faithfully as possible the feel of a grand piano keyboard. In the CLP-800, the weight, shape, materials, and movement of the internal components have been adjusted so that the perceived resistance at the fingertips is even closer to that of a grand piano mechanism.
The new GrandTouchTM pedals in the CLP-800 series not only look like grand piano pedals but also allow musicians to feel the same resistance in their feet as on a grand piano when pressing and releasing them.

The Excellence of a Piano

The CLP-800 series is equipped with a new sound generator chip developed by Yamaha, with superior computing power, which delivers the most sumptuous and highest quality piano sounds to date.
It offers the sounds of two world-renowned concert grand pianos: the CFX, Yamaha's premium concert grand piano, and the Bösendorfer Imperial, with its famous warm Viennese sound.

Grand Sound and Grand Design

The CLP-800 series is the closest thing to a grand piano, not only in terms of feel and sound but also in terms of design. They feature the many soft curves that make the grand piano such a refined instrument.
The wider music stand does not interfere with the dialogue with the music, but is also very functional, as it can hold multiple spread-out scores.
Finally, the LED display on the control panel of the high-end models is designed to turn off when not in use, eliminating unnecessary elements from the musician's field of vision.

The Benefits of a Digital World

Bluetooth function, binaural headphone sampling, record your performances, compatible with the Smart Pianist app, rhythm tracks to play along with. So many possibilities thanks to the digital features of the CLP-800 series.

Advanced Speaker Technology

While grand pianos amplify sound through their large soundboard and body, digital pianos amplify sound through their speakers.
To compensate for this structural limitation, by applying the knowledge and techniques acquired over more than 120 years of acoustic piano manufacturing, Yamaha has optimized the placement, orientation, and volume balance of the speakers in the low, mid, and high-frequency ranges of the CLP-800 series.

Enhanced VRM Technology

The pianos in the CLP-800 series reproduce richer and more natural resonance than ever before, thanks to the new sound generator chip combined with the revolutionary Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) technology.
The VRM technology creates a rich and varied sound by simulating the complex sympathetic tones created when the vibrations of the strings propagate to the soundboard and other strings, depending on the timing and intensity of the keys and pedal.

Our Experts' Reviews

• The touch of this digital piano's keys is hardly distinguishable from that of an acoustic piano. The sound seems deeper and more resonant than that of an upright piano.


• Piano sounds with a lot of dynamism and sound subtleties.
