Offering the opportunity to practice in private and play whenever inspiration strikes without being disturbed or disturbing others, the Yamaha SILENT Piano is the perfect fit for the urban dweller, families with children learning, schools or institutions with practice rooms in close proximity, or those obsessively practicing at all hours.

As part of their first range of grand pianos to be manufactured in Japan, at 173cm the Yamaha GC2 is not only a leap in quality from the GB1 in terms of string length and soundboard size, but also in quality of materials used in the manufacturing process. These improvements result in a piano of superior dynamic range and a more refined palette of sound.

On this page you will find information regarding the features and construction methods unique to the GC series and SILENT series pianos.

What is a SILENT piano?

The Yamaha SILENT piano is a feature that is fully integrated into an acoustic piano. By shifting the middle pedal, a mechanism called the “hammer shank stopper” is moved into place, stopping the hammer a few millimetres short of striking the string, thus muting the acoustic sound of the piano. The player can now hear themselves playing through headphones in superb digital reproduction. The skillfully designed sensor system captures and reproduces the subtlest of dynamics with stunning realism, all without affecting the acoustic touch of the piano in any way, granting you the convenience of a digital piano without sacrificing the authentic touch of a real acoustic.

Through techniques such as Virtual Resonance Modelling and most of all Binaural Sampling, the digital piano samples found in SILENT pianos have been recorded in such a way that when heard through headphones give the authentic feeling that you are sitting in front of a grand piano. This makes the experience of playing with headphones in front of an acoustic piano far more natural that one might first expect!

Play and compose in any genre by exploring the 25 sounds available in the SILENT piano, including electric pianos, harpsichord, organ and strings.

Now equipped with wireless Bluetooth, the SILENT piano can be connected wirelessly to the Yamaha Smart Pianist app, making navigation through the piano's features even easier via a smart device. The Midi and Line Outs also available, mean that the piano has all connectivity necessary for plugging into teaching apps, audio interfaces and notation software, making it the ultimate recording and compositional tool.
