Yamaha CLP 885 Digital Piano, Satin Black Overview
The Yamaha CLP 885 Digital Piano, Black is for pianists who want grand piano feel, sound, and control at home. Its GrandTouch keyboard combines wooden white keys, escapement, counterweights, and linear graded hammers to recreate the response of an acoustic grand, helping you play with greater precision and expression.
Featuring Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial piano samples, the CLP-885 gives you access to two distinct concert grand voices. Grand Expression Modeling and Virtual Resonance Modeling work together to respond naturally to your touch, pedal use, and playing style, creating a more detailed performance experience.
A powerful multi-speaker system with spruce cone speakers, diffusers, and bidirectional horns helps project sound throughout the room, while binaural sampling improves headphone practice. Bluetooth Audio and MIDI, USB recording, 16-track song capture, and compatibility with the Smart Pianist app make it easy to practise, record, and enjoy music in different ways.

Play with grand piano control
The CLP-885 is built around Yamaha's GrandTouch keyboard, designed to bring your playing experience closer to that of a concert grand piano. Wooden white keys, synthetic ebony and ivory keytops, escapement, counterweights, and 88-key linear graded hammers work together to create a consistent and responsive touch across the keyboard. The GrandTouch pedal system further supports expressive playing, while the GP Response Damper pedal reproduces changing resistance depending on how far the pedal is pressed. This combination gives you detailed control over dynamics, articulation, and phrasing.
Shape every musical detail
Grand Expression Modeling helps translate subtle playing techniques into audible changes in tone and character. The piano responds to differences in key attack, release speed, and repeated notes, allowing you to develop a more nuanced performance. Yamaha's Virtual Resonance Modeling adds another layer of realism by recreating the sympathetic resonances that occur inside an acoustic piano. Together with key-off samples and smooth release technology, these features create a more natural connection between your playing and the resulting sound.
World-class piano voices
The CLP-885 includes detailed samples of Yamaha's flagship CFX concert grand and the Bösendorfer Imperial. Each instrument offers its own distinct tonal character, giving you options for different musical styles and preferences. Beyond acoustic piano sounds, the CLP-885 provides 53 voices, 480 XG voices, and 14 Drum/SFX kits for wider creative possibilities. With 256-note polyphony, dual, split, and duo modes, you can layer sounds, divide the keyboard, or practise alongside another player without compromising performance.
Enjoy powerful sound
A three-way speaker system powered by dual amplifier arrays delivers clear, room-filling sound across low, mid, and high frequencies. Spruce cone speakers, diffusers, and bidirectional horns help create a spacious listening experience that mirrors the projection of an acoustic instrument. For private practice, binaural sampling and the stereophonic optimiser provide a more natural headphone sound. Bluetooth Audio and MIDI, USB audio recording and playback, MIDI connections, dual headphone outputs, and Smart Pianist app compatibility give you plenty of ways to practise, record, learn, and enjoy music — all from a single instrument.
App-connected control with Smart Pianist
The Smart Pianist app lets you control the CLP 885 directly from your phone or tablet. You can change sounds, adjust settings and fine-tune acoustic parameters with ease. The app can also analyse songs from your music library, allowing you to play along with your favourite tracks while displaying the chords and structure in real time.
