Yamaha b1 SC3 Silent Upright Piano

SILENT pianos are genuine acoustic pianos equipped with Yamaha’s advanced silencing technology. When the keys are played in SILENT Mode, the hammers are stopped immediately before striking the strings so that the piano itself generates no sound. Sensors installed below the keys decipher how the keys are played and relay the data to the digital tone generator, which generates sampled sounds that can be heard through a pair of headphones. By allowing players to play a true acoustic piano sound under normal circumstances, or to put on headphones and play in SILENT Mode to avoid disturbing others, SILENT Piano™ makes any time a good time to sit down at the piano.

Yamaha SILENT Pianos™ are made for those who love the sound and feel of a traditional “wood and strings” piano, but need the flexibility to play whenever inspiration strikes. Engage SILENT Mode and the piano will prevent hammers from hitting the strings. Instead, high-definition electromagnetic key sensors will transmit your performance into a truly breathtaking digital grand piano sound. You can play in complete privacy in any environment!

Yamaha SILENT Pianos™ also come with other instrument sounds, a built-in metronome and USB MIDI and AUDIO recorder – all the basic practice tools that make learning the piano fast and easy! Better yet – connect via Bluetooth and control your Yamaha SILENT Piano™ with Yamaha’s incredible Smart Pianist app. You won’t believe how much more you’ll use your Yamaha piano!

Packed with top-grade technologies that transform it into far more than a mere acoustic piano, the b1-SC3 Yamaha SILENT Piano™ is one of the most affordable “play anytime” pianos in the World.
