Product Description

The Casio AP400 provides all the rich resonance of a fine grand piano. Beautifully rich resonance provides an amazing range of expression. A Tri-element AIF Sound Source incorporating very fine stereo sampling of an acoustic grand piano for sounds that are warm and natural, from the instant they start to sound right up until they decay. The Tri-element system uses three different samples taken in each range for accurate reproduction of the different timbres for various keyboard pressures. The original AIF system captures every nuance of keyboard play to put powerful tools of expression at your fingertips. The result is notes of virtually the same richness and clarity as those produced by an acoustic grand.

128-note polyphony
128-note polyphony provides plenty of margin for high-speed passages and for performances that require intensive damper pedal operations.

Acoustic Resonance System
Using the damper pedal adds acoustic resonance, which is similar to that produced by the vibration of strings in a grand piano.

Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard for authentic grand piano feel
A spring-less hammer system that is similar to the one used by grand pianos provides a keyboard touch that is naturally firm. Lower notes play relatively heavier than higher notes, just like the keys on a grand piano. Everything about the Privia is designed and built to produce true concert grand piano sound and feel.

2-way 4-speaker system for richer, powerful output
A 20W+20W high-output 2-way 4-speaker system outputs low-range notes, high-range notes, and everything in between with outstanding clarity.

Refined, elegant design
An intelligent stand design and elegant body, available in a brown rosewood or cherry finish, combine to give these models the look of a fine piano that complements the decor of the surrounding room.

Packed with functions that support piano and lesson play
Two Grand Piano buttons - Classic, Modern.

Duet Mode
Duet mode allows two people to play within the same range. In the Duet Mode, the left (soft) pedal functions as a damper pedal for the left-side keyboard.

Music Library
The Music Library includes a choice of 60 tunes for lessons and listening enjoyment. (A score book is included*.) *Due to copyright restrictions, some tunes are not included in the score book.
