Yamaha N100 Nocturne Grand Digital Piano

Escape the complicated world
In a complicated world where technology seems to overwhelm what used to be the simplest of tasks, the Nocturne Grand N-100 is an oasis of simplicity and pure piano pleasure. Contemporary and expressive, the Nocturne Grand features gorgeous, richly textured sound and a modern yet classic design that fully evoke the beauty and elegance of a concert grand piano.

The advanced digital technology is invisible, the sophisticated electronics transparent. What you see, hear and play is a piano -- one that is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Drawing on our vast experience with both acoustic and electronic instruments, we've captured the true essence of the grand piano, bringing all of the dynamic sounds and performance nuances of an actual 9-foot concert grand into a compact digital piano. The result is a truly classic instrument that becomes a natural extension of both your hands and your musical imagination.

The Actual sounds of a Concert Grand Piano
Yamaha continues its rich tradition of innovation by unveiling the new Nocturne N-100 Digital Piano, which is sure to become a contemporary classic. With speakers conveniently tucked into the rear cabinet and pedal frame, the Nocturne N-100 has a slim look top-to-bottom, despite its considerable depth. The result is a compact footprint that echoes the shape of a streamlined square-grand piano with an attractive black finish, slow-close fall board, and tasteful, soft-glowing, blue-lit control surface.

The N-100 wraps high-quality touch and tone into a package that features breakthrough design. The N-100 boasts 88 Graded Hammer Effect, weighted-action keys; 64 notes of polyphony; 10 of Yamaha's best keyboard voices (including Grand Piano, Electronic Piano, Pipe Organ, and Strings); and 50 built-in songs of standard piano repertoire that can play continuously. It also includes a spacious digital reverb that adds depth to its deceptively slim appearance and dual voice mode for the richer sound of two sounds playing together.
