Responsive Hammer III keybed for authentic feel and response
Kawai developed their Responsive Hammer III keybed used in the Kawai ES920 to capture the distinctive feel of an acoustic grand piano. Responsive Hammer III action incorporates let-off simulation (also called escapement) that provides the subtle “notch” you feel when you press the keys of a grand piano very softly. A feature of grand pianos not found on uprights, let-off allows you to quickly repeat notes without fully releasing the key. Just as acoustic piano hammers are heavier in the bass and get lighter as you move up toward the treble end of the keyboard, RH III action uses different hammer weights that are graded for each playing range. This fastidious attention to detail gives you maximum stability when playing fortissimo passages, while giving you the delicate pianissimo control you need.
Harmonic Imaging XL technology delivers stunning grand piano sound
Sit down at the Kawai ES920 and play. The stunning piano sound you hear is none other than the meticulously sampled sound of a handcrafted Kawai concert grand piano, with all 88 keys painstakingly recorded and faithfully reproduced using Kawai’s Harmonic Imaging XL technology. This proprietary process accurately re-creates the immense dynamic range of the grand piano, giving you a truly impressive measure of expressiveness, from ppp to fff. If this were the only sound onboard the ES920, it would be a fabulous value, but there’s a total of 38 amazing sounds, including orchestral strings, electric pianos, organs, vibes, harpsichord, choir, and more.
