Description
Yamaha/Kemble Upright Piano w/ Factory MP70 Silent System (1999)
Available for sale is a premium Yamaha upright piano equipped with the factory-installed MP70 Silent System. Manufactured in the renowned Kemble factory (UK), this instrument represents the peak of Yamaha’s late-90s "Simple Type" silent technology—prized for its durability and lack of digital bloat.
The Acoustic Action
Unlike digital "hybrids," this is a full-scale acoustic piano. The action features genuine wooden components and weighted hammers. The MP70 system utilizes a physical stop-rail mechanism engaged via the center pedal, which prevents hammers from striking the strings while maintaining the original regulation and "let-off" feel of the acoustic action.
Technical Specifications & Connectivity
The MP70 control interface is the streamlined, non-reverb variant, favored by purists for its clean signal path and high-fidelity sampling of the Yamaha Concert Grand.
Sensor Technology: Precision leaf-switch key sensors provide reliable velocity tracking for a wide dynamic range.
Audio I/O: Dual 1/4" TRS headphone outputs for silent monitoring; Stereo Aux Out for external amplification or recording.
MIDI Integration: Full 5-pin MIDI In/Out ports. This allows the piano to function as a high-end, weighted MIDI controller for DAWs (Logic, Ableton) or external hardware synths.
Power Requirements: Standard DC 15V (700mA) input.
Condition & Engineering Heritage
This 1999 model benefits from the robust "Kemble-era" build quality, featuring European-sourced spruce and high-tension scaling. The electronic components have been tested and remain fully functional, offering a lag-free digital interface that complements the mechanical brilliance of the piano.
Whether you need a professional-grade practice tool for late-night sessions or a high-end acoustic instrument with MIDI capabilities, this MP70-equipped Yamaha is a rare find in such excellent technical condition.
