The CP88 is Yamaha's 88-key stage piano built around the NW-GH natural wood graded hammer action with triple sensors and synthetic ebony and ivory keytops. It carries three flagship acoustic piano voices — the CFX, the S700 and the Bösendorfer Imperial 290 — plus electric pianos and effects, with hands-on controls laid out for live use. It suits gigging pianists who want a grand-like touch and fast sound switching without menu diving. Against rivals like the Nord Stage and Roland RD series, it leans on authentic acoustic piano feel rather than synth and organ depth.

Pianists consistently praise the keybed as one of the most convincing in a stage piano, and the CFX and Bösendorfer voices get strong marks for dynamics. The main complaints are weight and a feature set focused on piano rather than synth work.
The Yamaha CP88 is an 88-key stage piano. Its NW-GH (Natural Wood Graded Hammer) keyboard has triple-sensor natural wood keys with grand piano weighting and response. The keytops are synthetic ebony and ivory, which absorb moisture and give a tactile grip.
Onboard sounds include three grand pianos: Yamaha CFX, Yamaha S700 and Bösendorfer Imperial 290. Two uprights, the Yamaha SU7 and a sample of a vintage U1, are also included. The electric piano collection covers the CP80, 75 Rd, 76 Rd, 73 Rd and Wr. Other sounds include tonewheel, transistor and pipe organs, clavinet, FM pianos and synth sounds.
Each section (Piano, E Piano and Sub) has its own dedicated effects and effects controls. Master delay, reverb and EQ effects have dedicated real-time controls. A one-to-one control interface allows direct sound control on stage or in the studio. Seamless Sound Switching lets you change sounds while holding notes without cutoff. Regular OS updates can add new content, and Soundmondo provides access to thousands of free sounds.
