About Kawai CN201

Let the CN201 88-Key Digital Piano with Responsive Hammer III in Premium Satin Black elevate your musical journey. This sleek and modern digital piano, designed by Kawai, offers an unparalleled playing experience, combining the elegance of a grand piano with the convenience of modern technology.

The CN201's Responsive Hammer III keyboard action, acclaimed for its realistic touch, replicates the feel of a Kawai grand piano. Each key is authentically weighted with metal hammers, graded to be heavier in the bass region and lighter in the treble, just like an acoustic piano. This ensures a smooth, natural playing experience, enhanced by the chassis' reinforced materials for stability during forceful playing.

The piano's Ivory Touch key surface material, with its attractive matte finish, aids finger control and contributes to the overall impression of playing a high-quality, authentic piano. The Responsive Hammer III keyboard action also incorporates counterweights within each key, balancing the touch during pianissimo passages and providing a feeling of greater substance when playing with force.

The CN201 captures the magnificent tone of the flagship Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand piano, hand-built by Master Piano Artisans. The distinctive sound of Kawai's highly acclaimed EX concert grand piano is also featured, both reproduced with full 88-key sampling using advanced Progressive Harmonic Imaging sound technology. This establishes a new standard in digital piano tonal quality, allowing musicians to appreciate the contrasting properties of each.

The CN201 also offers a variety of Jazz, Pop, and Modern variations suitable for a range of musical genres, alongside a traditional Kawai upright piano sound. The Virtual Technician 'Smart Mode' simulates refinements digitally, with ten preset configurations that adjust characteristics of the grand piano to match different musical styles.

The CN201's redesigned motherboard and speaker system, combined with a high-quality power adapter, deliver best-in-class audio quality. The CN201's stereo speaker system delivers an impressive 40W of output, providing more than enough power to fill a medium-sized room with its beautiful Shigeru Kawai grand piano sounds.

For those who prefer to practice in silence, the CN201's Spatial Headphone Sound (SHS) technology enhances the depth and realism of the instrument's sound when listening through headphones or earphones. The player can select one of three different acoustic presets that adjust the spatial positioning of the sound, while also helping to reduce auditory fatigue when using earphones or headphones for extended periods of time.

The CN201 also offers a variety of convenient digital features, including a selection of different instrument voices, built-in lesson songs, and the ability to record and playback performances. Built-in Bluetooth MIDI and Audio functionality allow connecting to smart devices wirelessly for running apps or streaming music.

In conclusion, the CN201 88-Key Digital Piano with Responsive Hammer III in Premium Satin Black is a stylish, professional, and modern instrument that offers a high-quality playing experience, making it a perfect choice for musicians who demand the best.
