Key Voice Name Voice description
C1 CFX Grand*
Yamaha’s CFX flagship concert grand piano sound with a wide
dynamic range for maximum expressive control. Suitable for
playing in any music genre and style.
C#1 Mellow Grand*
Grand piano sound with a soft and warm tone. Good for playing
ballads.
D1 Pop Grand*
Bright piano sound. Good for clear expression and “cutting
through” other instruments in an ensemble.
D#1 Stage E.Piano
The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic
“tines.” Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone
when played hard.
E1 DX E.Piano
An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good for
standard popular music.
F1 Harpsichord
The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord
uses plucked strings, there is no touch response. There is,
however, a characteristic additional sound when the keys are
released.
F#1 Vibraphone
Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes
more metallic the harder you play.
G1 Pipe Organ
This is a typical pipe organ sound (8' + 4' + 2'). Good for sacred
music from the Baroque period.
G#1 Jazz Organ
The sound of a “tonewheel” type electric organ. Often heard in
jazz and rock music.
A1 Strings
Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic
reverb. Try combining this Voice with piano in the Dual mode.
