Our hearing goes beyond simply left and right, and we can detect the origin of sound in all directions. Using an exclusive six-speaker amplification system, the new Grand Acoustic System reproduces the three-dimensional sound field generated by an acoustic grand. The top speakers present sounds normally heard rising upwards, and the downward-facing speakers present sounds heard from below the soundboard. This simulation fills the room with rich, complex sound, reaching both the performer and the audience.
The GP-510’s speaker system has become even more powerful than its predecessor, with larger drivers making even more effective use of the powerful built-in amplifiers.
The newly-enhanced speaker system reproduces deeper, richer bass tones while enhancing the clarity of midrange and treble frequencies. When the volume is adjusted, each speaker is automatically optimized to strike the perfect balance you'd expect from a meticulously maintained grand piano.
New equalization options allow greater flexibility for recording and large scale performance. Now, you can choose to either maintain the pure sound of the six-speaker Grand Acoustic System when connecting to the line outputs or headphone outputs, or to hear the sound from the speakers exactly as it's being delivered to the line outputs - Minus the equalization that optimizes the sound for the Grand Acoustic System. You can also choose to disable the speaker system entirely, even without headphones connected. This solution is ideal for music labs or other educational settings, where the line outputs are used to connect to student headphone interfaces.
The all-important soft pedal is essential for accurate dynamics, not only in volume, but in tone. The new GP-510 improves the effect of the soft pedal by adjusting the changes in both volume and tonal color based on the strength you use to strike the keys while the pedal is pressed.
A newly-enhanced harpsichord Tone has been added, including the distinctive "key-off" sound that occurs when lifting your fingers from the keys.
A longtime favorite feature for classical players, Concert Play gives you a starring role playing with a symphony orchestra. Now, you can fine-tune the volume of your piano part, ensuring you are right where you want to be in the mix. This adjustment is also available while playing along with the built-in Song library.
The high-contrast display on your Grand Hybrid features an inverted color scheme, allowing for easier reading from further distances and wider angles. The overall brightness is now focused on the text, leaving the rest of the display darker so you can focus on your performance.
