Features
The Yamaha PF-500 electronic piano features rich sounds produced by Yamaha’s proprietary
“AWM dynamic stereo
sampling”
tone generator system and a “
Graded Hammer”
keyboard that varies the key weight according to the key
range, giving these electronic pianos a “playing-feel” that is very close to the keyboard of a genuine grand piano. The
PF-500 GrandPiano1 voice features 3 velocity-switched samples (

String Resonance

(page 83) that recreates resonance of piano strings, special “
Sustain Sampling

Key-off Sam-

” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released. The PF-500 comes much closer to the sound of
a true acoustic piano.
