Graded Hammer Effect Keyboard, 88 keys.
Overview
Essential Sounds
The P-140 brings users an exceptional range of instrument voices, from organs and harpsichords to the new, all-in-one piano & string dual voice. Recorded using Yamaha's own AWM sampling technology, all onboard voices accurately reproduce the subtlest harmonics of the actual instrument with stunning realism.
Dynamic Stereo Sampling
To offer truly authentic sound, Yamaha takes piano voice sampling to a whole new level. With three separate layers of stereo samples each set at a different velocity, Dynamic Stereo Sampling changes not only the volume, but also the harmonic structure of the notes depending on how hard you play the keyboard - just like a real acoustic piano! An exclusive fourth sample layer recreates a piano's unique sustain resonance whenever the damper pedal is pressed, while key-off samples add even the subtle sounds of felt dampers coming to rest on piano strings. Better still, the P-140's highly efficient built-in powered speaker system directs your music forward for unbeatable sound.
Realistic Piano Action
The P-140 features Yamaha's highly acclaimed Graded Hammer Effect keyboard, the result of more than a century's worth of piano craftsmanship and ingenuity. It's designed so that the keys in the lower registers have a heavier touch than those in the upper, which helps to create the feel of an acoustic piano. Just take a look at the different-sized hammers under the lid of any grand piano and you'll see why Yamaha puts the Graded Hammer Effect… read more keyboard in all P-Series instruments.
Stylish Design and Matching Stand
The sleek and stylish P-140 is designed to impress with rounded corners, built-in speakers, and a new orange LED that is sure to turn heads. These new features are all built into a compact chassis available in either silver or black with wood top panels of maple or dark oak respectively. What's more, these stylish designs are perfectly complemented by the P-140's optional, slim keyboard stands in either color.
50 Preset Piano Songs at Your Fingertips
Time for a break? A selection of 50 different piano songs is provided for your listening pleasure. These recordings were chosen for their beauty as well as their functionality. Since many of the songs are classic piano pieces, anyone taking lessons can listen to them for reference. Feel like practicing? Mute the left or right hand parts of the song for hands-separate practicing. You play one hand, while the P-140 accompanies you with the other. Music educators agree that this is an essential part of learning any piece of music. read less

"A GREAT PIANO SOUND A GREAT PIANO FEEL"
Go for it and don't waste your money on roland or korg.
Sound
The piano sounds 1 & 3 are great. I gave it 9 because there are some extra features in the hi end samples which is not presented on P140 like strings resonance(not sustain resonance ) or 5 or more layers of samples. you should listen to them via external speakers or good headphones to understand how beautiful they are. The internal speakers are good but not convenient. The other sounds are above the average BUT don't forget it is a digital piano not a work station keyboard.
Features
As a digital piano it's full of features. split mode. dual mode. control on the portion of sustain and key off samples, useful effects, left hand and right hand mute system for practicing tunes, 2 track recorder, half damper effect and so many other features. The piano action is superb. you can play with a new level of expresivness and feel. It's YAMAHA GRADED HAMMER EFFECT action system. Some people may say this action is good or that action is bad . We can look at this issue through two diffrent perspectives. 1- Some people look for a piano action which is exactly the same as real acoustic piano. These people should pay alot of money becuase emulating the real hammer mechanism with all of its details cost dozens of bucks.Beside that the actions on the acoustic pianos are diffrent from model to model and from brand to brand.Therefore no unique acoustic piano feel exists.… read more 2- some people look for a piano action which they can exercise or play on it and the feel would be some thing that beside enjoys from paying, when the time comes to paly on a real thing they can do it with no difficulties. The second approach is the one on which P140 has been designed. The action is very good but even with blindfold test you can easily recognize that it's a digital not acoustic. but don't make mistake . The keys are properly weighted and I promise you will be satisfied by playing it.
Ease of Use
Plug and play piano sounds. but for split mode and choosing other voice you have to go inside the functions.
Quality
The body is very beautiful but weak plastic. It seems that(not happened yet) it can easily be damaged. The rest is ok as far as quality is consern.
Value
IT WORTHS EVERY DOLLAR. A pack of good sounding piano sounds with amazing YAMAHA GHE piano action system and alot of extra features Plus a nice look. You will not be disappointed if you don't expect too much from the internal 6watts speakers althogh they are fine according to my taste.
