Realistic Piano Tones
Yamaha’s Pure CF Sound Engine results from years of piano-making history combined with state-of-the-art sampling technology
and expertise. Yamaha is one of the industry’s leaders in digital piano technology, and you can hear why in the sound of their digital pianos that utilize the Pure CF piano sample. The P-115B includes the sound of Yamaha’s renowned CFIIIS 9’concert grand piano and is faithfully reproduced, allowing for incredible dynamics and expressiveness making Pure CF-equipped digital pianos worthy of the Yamaha name.
Authentic To The Touch
Yamaha’s GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) weighted action has heavier touch in the low end and lighter touch in the high end,
just like the hammers inside an acoustic piano. Great for the aspiring pianist, practicing on the GHS action builds the proper finger technique for when the time comes to perform on an acoustic piano. Plus, the matte finish makes the black keys are less slippery when playing for extended periods of time.
Enhanced Sound System
The tweeter position has been improved in the P-115B to be in line with the ears of the performer. Melody lines and treble passages are brighter and more expressive as a result. This new configuration ensures that the instrument sounds sparkle and come alive across the entire tonal range.
Accompaniment with Style
The P-115B has on-board drum rhythms for practice orperformance. There’s a variety of rhythm patterns to choose, from basic rock to shuffle and swing beats. Use the rhythms to add an element of fun to your practicing, or simply use them as a virtual drummer for your performances.

Final Conclusion:
If you have wanted to buy a piano but stayed away from it, thinking of its size and space it will occupy in your home, you will find that the Yamaha P115B Digital Piano is an exception. It is compact and ideal for a home setting, a home-studio or stage use. It is yet another piano from the famous P-series.
Most of the bad reviews I’m seeing on here seem like nitpicking to me. This piano isn’t meant to be all things to everyone.
I’d love a… unit to be the last digital keyboard a pro player will ever need, but that isn’t going to happen (at least not yet), and I didn’t buy it for that purpose. No , you’re not going to get 1000 amazing sounds from every keyboard ever made, no, you’re not going to get dizzying functionality and seamless integration with your phone, and no, the little built-in speakers are not going to sound like the line array system in your local arena. But you will get 88 keys and a handful of excellent piano sounds and a few less excellent but usable organ, harpsichord and string sounds. And then you can plug it
into a nice PA or amp and have it sound quite nice and it won’t hit your bank account too hard. That’s what I wanted, and that’s what I got.And thumbs up to the Sweetwater staff. My rep Codie was excellent. Never had a bad experience buying at Sweetwater. Highly recommended.

I absolutely love it. The onboard amp and speakers sound great and it really takes off through my PA. I thought the graded
weighted keys would be hard at first but I was wrong, it just feels natural and really helps with my playing. I also love the
3 pedal foot pedal that I ordered to go with it, especially the left one that speeds the leslie sound up, that’s really
great. Since it has USB, it is very easy to use with my DAW and midi when I want to go that way. It is really worth the
money, which was low to start with. All in all it is a very good unit as far as quality and price and it fits my needs
perfectly.

I have two piano’s, a Young Chang 6′ Grand and a Yamaha studio grand. I have the P115 primarily to be able to play at night
when I am dealing with pain issues I use head phones so as to not cause my wife to lose sleep. When I play the P115 during
the day without head phones my wife will come into the room just to see if I am what I am playing, the Young Chang or the
P115. I really enjoy the great tone and sound of the P115. I was surprised to find myself lured away from my conventional
piano’s during the day!

I recently purchased this keyboard, after having a Yamaha MOXF8 for about 3 months. I did not need all the bells and whistles
on the MOXF8. I am a pro musician, had tons of keyboards the last 45 years. This one by far has the BEST piano, organ,
strings, etc! I did not need 200 piano sounds. Only 3-4. Just what this offered. The feel is great, built rugged, beautiful
keys. No screen, but I don’t need it. The Grand pianos (2) sound BETTER than my $1700 MOXF8! My Sales Engineer, Justin made
my purchase PERFECT from start to finish, as he did before.
