New Advanced Triple-element Stereo Sampled AIF Sound Source with 128 Note Polyphony

� Thanks to its large capacity waveform memory, the PX-800 delivers a highly realistic reproduction of the grand piano, as well as other pianos, electric pianos and organs. The triple-element system provides precise independent sampling of soft, medium, and hard keystrokes for richly expressive musical dynamics. Moreover, the acoustic resonance system reproduces the harmonic effect of strings when damper pedals are used.

� The PX-800 features class-leading 128 note polyphony, four times that of previous models. As a result of the increase in polyphony, the damper pedals are also able to offer a more natural, lingering sound. Notes reverberate naturally without being cut off during high-speed passages and performances that require intensive damper pedal operations.

� The revolutionary new AIF (Acoustic and Intelligent Filtering) system further contributes to outstanding acoustic reproduction - its precise sampling of grand piano sounds combines with an intelligent filter which responds to your playing to ensure that notes change and decay naturally with the realism of an acoustic piano.

New Touch Response Sensitive System

� The AIF sound source responds to how much pressure is applied to the keyboard, meaning that you are able to shape and color your performances with everything from booming fortissimos to delicate pianissimos. This high-performance touch detection system utilises 256 steps, double the steps in previous models, for a supremely sensitive expression of musical dynamics.

Powerful Audio System

� The PX-800 is equipped with a powerful 2-way stereo 40W speaker system (20W per side). The integration of the speakers into the cabinet allows the cabinet of the instrument to resonate very much like an acoustic piano, producing a lovely warm sound.

� The PX-800 also includes two headphone outputs, great for teaching or duet practice.
