PF-85

At the heart of the PF85 is a digital tone system which uses Yamaha's unique Advanced Wave Memory technique to create authentic instrument voices based on samples of the sounds of actual instruments. Piano 1, Piano 2, E. Piano, Harpsichord, Vibe.

When the Chorus function is selected, the voice currently in use is transformed and expanded by a pulsating stereo chorus for a rich ensemble effect.

Built in to the PF85 are two full-frequency speakers. A bass enclosure in the lower section of the instrument adds depth and grandeur to low notes. Speakers can be turned off, and headphones used for private playing.

A full-size 88-note piano keyboard. The newly developed Yamaha AE keys are incorporated, with an action that is similar to that of a grand piano.

It comes with a FC-4 foot pedal used for sustaining notes. A second optional pedal may be used for either Soft pedalling or key hold pedalling.

Can be transposed instantly to any of the 12 keys. In addition, fine-tuning can be done over a range of +/- 51 cents (1/2 note), to exactly match the pitch of the PF85 to accompanying instruments.

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) allows digital instruments to control each other in a variety of configurations, for enormous sound potential.
