Silent Pianos™ combine the best features of acoustic and digital pianos.

Our primary goal is to provide a beautiful acoustic piano that reflects both the knowledge and technique of Yamaha's 100-year piano history. We complement this with our market-leading Silent PianoTM technology, which allows you to play the piano quietly with the help of headphones. When you activate the silent function, the hammers do not strike the strings, but a very sophisticated sensor technology detects all the movements of the keys and then transmits them to the digital tone module. You can play a real acoustic piano with headphones anytime, day or night, without disturbing others or being disturbed by others. The Yamaha Silent system is unsurpassed in its kind, as it allows you to practice 24 hours a day, as well as has many other features. It includes, for example, a series of pre-installed sounds, with which you can record your own music, or you can also connect mobile devices to it and thus also use the latest applications.
In this series, the company Yamaha, which enjoys an international leading position in the provision of sound muting technology, presents you with 2 Silent Piano systems, several different levels of operation and sound quality in silent mode.

Home and Family
The deeply resonant sound of a Yamaha piano may not be appreciated by everyone. Maybe you could bother a neighbor or family member.
In such cases, the SH and SG2 Silent systems, which can be switched on in a moment, are well suited. You can experience the touch sensitivity and dynamics of a real Yamaha piano, while the excellent sound of a Yamaha competition piano can be heard in the headphones, while others in the same room can watch TV or even listen to different music.
Whether it is early in the morning or late at night is no longer a problem. Practice quietly so you don't disturb others and they won't disturb you.
The huge advantage of Silent Piano instruments is that you can practice with them day and night without disturbing anyone or being disturbed by anyone. Yamaha's patented Quick Escape Mechanism TM (GP only) allows you to have the same feeling of practicing in both acoustic and silent modes.
Binaural Yamaha CFX sampling technique creates the illusion of sitting in front of a concert piano even through headphones. The instrument also has a variety of timbres, a metronome and the possibility of transposition. Of course, you can find the MIDI and in silent mode the brightness and different types of reverberation can also be set.
Most of our customers choose Silent Piano TM because they want to practice with headphones regardless of the time of day, day or night, without disturbing others or being disturbed by others.
Each Silent Piano™ model comes with headphones with 2 headphone inputs so you can practice with a family member or a teacher.

The modern musician
Because state-of-the-art Silent PianoTMs are compatible with next-generation technologies, including applications such as Piano Diary and NoteStar, PCs and MIDI devices, they are a serious alternative to both acoustic and digital pianos.
Being able to practice quietly on a real piano with headphones, without disturbing others or being disturbed by others, is a huge advantage. As is Silent Piano's comprehensive connectivity. You can make and share audio and MIDI recordings with the built-in recording system, or just for your own entertainment immerse yourself in the impressively realistic sound obtained from the CFX competition grand piano through the sampling technique (SH models only).
This is the most suitable piano experience for home, studio and school.
Stage and Studio
The playing feel of a real competition grand piano is unmatched. Despite the fact that voicing a competition piano is a real challenge in a concert, many people still leave it at that. Now, thanks to Yamaha SH Silent technology with real piano tilt, we can get a real piano sound without the need for complex microphone settings.
At the same time, thanks to MIDI connectivity, Silent Piano can become the centerpiece of a sophisticated system.
This is the most suitable piano for both the stage and the studio. It's a real piano.
