Yamaha YDP-S36 WH Digital Piano

Slimline cabinet for an authentic piano playing experience in a compact space

The Yamaha YDP-S36 is the compact slimline model in the ARIUS series and is aimed at anyone looking for a fully-fledged digital piano with authentic Yamaha sound in a space-saving design. With its slimline design, it fits perfectly into flats, smaller music rooms or modern living spaces. The fold-down keyboard cover emphasises the uncluttered design and makes the instrument an elegant visual solution for everyday use.

The GHS keyboard with Graded Hammer Standard weighting provides a natural playing feel modelled on that of an acoustic piano. The keys are weighted heavier in the bass range and lighter in the treble range, allowing you to play classical piano repertoire, pop accompaniments and daily exercises with precision. Matt black key surfaces and improved sensor technology support precise response and help you develop dynamics and musical expression effectively.

In terms of sound, the Yamaha YDP-S36 offers the sound of the sampled Yamaha CFX concert grand piano. This grand piano sound is clear, balanced and musically tuned across all registers. VRM Lite enhances the playing experience with natural resonance effects, whilst the 192-note polyphony provides ample capacity for more complex pieces and pedal passages. The two 12-cm speakers with diffusers ensure focused sound projection, supported by 2 x 8-watt amplifier power.

The YDP-S36 is well-equipped for everyday use. It offers 10 tones, four reverb types, a dual function, duo mode, a metronome, transpose and tuning functions, as well as a 2-track recording function. In addition, 50 classic preset songs and 303 lesson songs are available to support practising, learning and discovering new music.

The instrument can be connected wirelessly to compatible mobile devices via Bluetooth Audio and Bluetooth MIDI. When used in conjunction with the Yamaha Smart Pianist app, settings can be adjusted easily, sheet music displayed and practice functions utilised. Two headphone sockets, Stereophonic Optimizer and Intelligent Acoustic Control make the YDP-S36 particularly practical for quiet practice. This makes the Yamaha YDP-S36 a compact, modern and reliable digital piano for beginners, those returning to the instrument, and anyone looking for a space-saving instrument with authentic Yamaha piano sound.
