The class-leading CN43 boasts improved sound specifications and a selection of premium features including 192 note polyphony, a powerful 2 x 50W speaker system, integrated accompaniment styles, and the ability to record and playback MP3, WAV, and MIDI files directly from USB memory.

With over 300 instrument sounds and 12 drum kits, the CN43 is an ideal instrument for players seeking a digital piano that off ers a little more musical flexibility. In addition to the standard Dual and Split playing modes, the new Rhythm Section feature provides professionally arranged backing accompaniments to support a range of musical genres. With 100 pop, rock, jazz, funk, and Latin styles, creative players can enjoy breathing new life into their existing repertoire at the touch of a button.

Rounding off the instrument’s impressive array of functions, the CN43 also adopts premium USB Audio capabilities from Kawai’s leading Concert Artist and MP Stage Piano ranges. This handy feature allows MP3 and WAV files stored on USB memory to be played back through the instrument’s powerful speaker system (an excellent way for musicians to learn new songs, or simply enjoy accompanying their favourite artists), or for digital audio files to be easily recorded without additional equipment.

Perfecting the art of the piano – a bold statement that has remained the company motto throughout three generations of Kawai family leadership. Inspired by over 80 years of experience crafting world-class acoustic pianos, Kawai’s digital engineers appreciate the importance of excellent build quality and meticulous attention to detail. The CN Series’ attractive cabinet designs reinforce these principles, with wide music rests, singlepiece side panels, and tapered legs supported by sturdy wooden toe blocks.

As the flagship instrument of the range, the new CN43 delivers premium-level specifications at an affordable price. Its powerful speaker system with 4 speakers provides deep, resonant bass frequencies and crisp, clean trebles that enliven musical performances, while the superior polyphony rating (the number of sounds that can be produced simultaneously) allows complex passages that require the damper pedal to be enjoyed without sustained notes ‘dropping out’ unexpectedly.

Grand piano sound
The Kawai EX concert grand piano is widely regarded by professional pianists and piano technicians as one of the finest instruments within its class. Hand-built by our renowned Master Piano Artisans at the Shigeru Kawai Piano Research Laboratory in Ryuyo, Japan, each EX instrument undergoes a meticulous regulation and refinement process within a specially designed anechoic chamber. Following this lengthy crafting period, the completed EX piano receives a final series of rigorous quality inspections, before eventually taking pride of place on the centre stage of the world’s most prestigious musical institutions and concert halls.

Painstakingly recorded
The beautiful sound of the EX grand piano is at the heart of the new CN Series, with all eighty-eight keys of this world-class instrument painstakingly recorded, analysed, and reproduced as high-fidelity digital waveforms. Recording each key individually in this way – as opposed to stretching the same tone over several different notes – ensures that the rich harmonic character of the original EX grand piano is preserved, and guarantees that the sound heard when playing any one of the CN Series’ keys is a faithful representation of the acoustic source.

Accurately reproduced
When playing the piano, the amount of pressure applied to the keyboard affects not only the volume of the sound produced, but also the unique tonal character of each note. Therefore, in order to construct a realistic acoustic portrait of the EX grand piano, not only is each key recorded individually, but also at various different volume levels, ranging from gentle pianissimo to thunderous fortissimo. The new CN Series offers a highly detailed acoustic portrait, employing Progressive Harmonic Imaging sound technology to ensure smooth tonal transitions across the keyboard and throughout the entire dynamic range.
