Harmonic Imaging Technology
The authentic piano sound of Kawai digital pianos starts with the world's finest concert grand piano, the Kawai EX. We recorded the exceptionally rich sound in the "anechoic chamber" at our advanced piano research facility. Our engineers then analysed the unique harmonic structure of the EX and created an extremely accurate sound map for each key across the entire dynamic range. Finally, our engineers and piano technicians worked together to reproduce the excellent sound of the EX concert grand piano. The sound data was digitally tuned and voiced by the ears of our proud piano craftsman. The result is a new level of authenticity in the art of digital piano.

Action
The Advanced Hammer Action IV with Acoustic Reaction technology (AR Technology) is Kawai’s most realistic graded-hammer action ever. The AR technology brings several technical improvements and innovations to the CP116’s action. The result is an action that provides a more life-like feel and gives you more control of dynamic expression from pianissimo to fortissimo.

Recorder
Just press the Record button and you’re ready to make your own recordings. For more professional results, the Advanced Recorder puts a full-featured, 16-track recording studio at your fingertips.

The Style Maker enables you to generate new styles from your own sequencer recordings or SMF files.

Concert Magic
A Concert Magic is a fun and interactive way to play music, even if you’ve never played before. With Concert Magic, anyone can experience the thrill of playing real music. Many of the Concert Magic songs also offer lyrics… just follow the bouncing ball for hours of Karaoke-style musical fun.
