Yamaha Arius YDP-S35 Slim Weighted 88-Key Digital Home Piano (Black Walnut)

The YDP-S35 is a slim, 88-key model of the ARIUS digital piano featuring a weighted keyboard. With Yamaha's CFX concert grand piano sound as a built-in voice, experience a rich expressive playing feel with the GHS keyboard. It includes newly equipped ear-friendly functions and compatibility with Yamaha’s Smart Pianist app. The lid becomes a flat tabletop when closed.

Beautiful, Powerful Sound

The YDP-S35 features a piano voice sampled from Yamaha’s flagship CFX concert grand piano—a renowned piano that delivers sparkling highs and a powerful resonant bass combined in a superbly expressive sound.

The YDP-S35 has the same detailed sound—from the lower keys to the higher keys—full of clarity and rich in colorful harmonic content. It gives you extraordinary expressive power and nuance, that authentically responds in your daily practice as well as your most emotion-filled performances.

Authentic Acoustic Piano Playability

With an 88-key piano action, the GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard reproduces the touch of an acoustic piano, from a naturally heavy feel in the lower key to a lighter touch in the upper octaves. The GHS keyboard provides a grand piano-style response and feels, allowing rapid note repetition and authentic expressive control.

Harmonic Resonance

One of the allures of the grand piano is the sympathetic resonance created by the vibration of the entire instrument. The YDP-S35 elaborately reproduces this rich sympathetic resonance through a groundbreaking technology called Virtual Resonance Modeling Lite (VRM Lite). VRM Lite creates a richly varied sound by simulating the complex sympathetic tones created when the vibrations of the strings are propagated to the soundboard and other strings, corresponding to the timing and intensity of key playing and pedaling.

Rich Variety Of Built-in Songs

Naturally, the YDP-S35 has an authentic grand piano sound, but it also features various other built-in instrument sounds, for a total of 10 Voices—including electric piano, organ, vibraphone, and strings. The YDP-S35 also has 353 built-in songs, including 50 famous classical songs, and 303 comprehensive practice exercises from famous methods, such as Beyer, Burgmüller, Czerny, and Hanon.

Greater Listening Comfort

The YDP-S35 employs new technology that corrects the sound balance optimally according to the volume you set—giving you an exceptionally natural sound that’s easy to listen to and is gentle on the ears, even when playing for a long time. It also has Stereophonic Optimizer effect that lets you enjoy the natural, spacious sound you experience sitting in front of an acoustic grand piano, even when wearing headphones.

Slim and Stylish Design

The piano cabinet has a slim depth that lets you neatly install it in any room, and makes for a chic, stylish design that effortlessly enhances your living space. Moreover, closing the keyboard lid gives the instrument a flat, unassuming look.
