THE TOUCH OF A GRAND PIANO: GRAND FEEL III WOODEN KEY ACTION
Incorporating many of the time-honoured principles associated with an acoustic piano, the Grand Feel III keyboard action utilized by the CA701 combines realistic materials, motion, and mechanism to emulate the responsive touch of the finest concert grand pianos.

All eighty-eight black and white keys are shaped entirely from long pieces of wood, with delicately textured ivory and ebony-like surfaces applied to absorb moisture and assist control. Each wooden key pivots effortlessly on a balance pin with the ends rising and falling to replicate the conventional ‘seesaw’ motion of an acoustic piano action. When pressed, the back of the key lifts, triggering a grade-weighted hammer to strike a pressure switch. The amount of force applied to this switch is then measured, and the corresponding note played with authentic volume and tonal character.

The CA701 features the new, exclusive SK-EX Competition Grand piano. This exciting new sample is in addition to the impeccable SK-EX grand piano sound, with all new sampling data, recorded from the pianist’s perspective. The Competition Grand sound is characterized by a bright, crisp sound with more natural bass notes and a clearer duplex scale presence in the upper notes.
