Many years ago, I had a 309 & loved it. But I needed a portable keyboard. The 309 was sold to a “proper” pianist who loved the action. So that shows how good CVP ‘s were even then. I’ve heard 709 & 809 side by side & the latest model is clearly A SERIOUS upgrade! My guilty pleasure would be a white 809. So, if you do come across one, for goodness sake do (not) let me know!!
One of the best demonstrations of a musical instrument and its capabilities I've EVER seen. I've seen in-store demos that aren't of this quality. Thank you so very much.
This instrument is incredible by all measures; it combines Grand Piano and Electronic Keyboards sounds and effects into one unit to be kept at home. This unit could never be beaten by any other Digital piano to date, many thanks and regards Tony for bringing in this magnificent unit into play.
Behold, the CVP 809. I believe God himself, smiles...each time, one of these are assembled! These instruments, are a divine marriage...a mixture of theater organ, grand piano, and a creative -well of dreams! If you've played one, it has changed you. Can't love this enough.
I own one and your review is excellent and very comprehensive. I keep coming back to your review to remind myself of the features on this piano. Good stuff!
An absolutely splendid explanation and review of this marvellous CVP 809....And brilliant demonstration with fabulous playing Maestro! It is my dream instrument to have and hold and to play too... Thanks and God bless 🥰🙏
Absolutely great and enlightening review! I have an older CVP-705 and am seriously looking to go to the newer 809 series. I am in US but have yet to see such a good overview of this fantastic instrument. Great playing too!
Great demonstration!!!! Polyphony 256 is great, but only two sounds can be layered.It is same as my Yamaha CVP 309PM which is 12 years old. I will keep my CVP 309pm forever.
Haha, I know the feeling....playing music, it is like roaring against the current....when you stop roaring, your boat goes back..... Practice make perfect....
Very nice demonstration and powerful instrument. Therefore, as an owner of a CVP 409 (Apr 2008), let me tell you my story and feeling. I paid about SG$ 6,000 for this CVP 409 black glossy with bunch with nice storage compartment. When I enquired about the new - CVP 809, the starting price is SG$8400 for a "black walnut" model and - CVP 809 same performance is SG$ 10,100 for a Polished Ebony (same wood finishing as my 409 black glossy) . The bunch on the 809 is a simple one, the useful inside compartment is no longer provided, just the basic model, without adjustment of seat... Last not the least, When I asked the sales person (several Yamaha dealers) if they are trade in, they told me, my CVP is too old (that I agree, despite that it is still working very well), adding that there is no value after 2 years for an electronic piano....They said that the value of mine would be about SG$ 500.....quite disappointing discovery! What is very surprising is that after 12 years, the price for a new one has almost doubled. Of course there are good improvements, but it is mainly in the electronic and amplifier and I do not think that it could justify such jump in price. In addition the basic model in black walnut is, to my opinion, not as beautiful as the polished ebony which was the basic model in 2008 and that time, they proposed a polished mogahony and another polished wood (forgot the name maybe rosewood???). So, I am quite disappointed about that and I am pondering if yes or no to buy a brand new one, knowing that after two years, there is no value....
I understand you. So I preferred to buy a classic digital piano (Casio GP 510) and a Yamaha SX 900 keyboard. With that I have the best of these instruments. And I can still take one for my events. Clavinova is just for home.
@@kropacek70 Thanks for telling me, but I am in Singapore and I try to sell it for SG$ 2900 (£1619), but no buyers.... and the Yamaha Shop doesn't trade in....anyway, it is still working very well....
I am willing to buy this if someone comes to me and buy all of my sample libraries, Cubase, my P125 and Genos. Nothing is more beautiful than having a single unified gear instead of looking everywhere to make and enjoy playing music.
This ist almost perfect but I am concerned about the quality of the keys and touch and sound for classical piano. Because I am thinking of having a Clavinova CLP 785 and I don’t know if this CVP have also this piano quality. Then it would be really perfect and worth the investment of course.
I bet our Elton owns a few of these. I played one by chance in the Music Room Notts. Extremely good. I'm stuck with a Kurzweil K2500 for now but looking for much much better
Thank you so very much for demonstrating Yamaha's Freeplay Styles on this wonderful Clavinova CVP-809. Would you know how many of these "Freeplay" Styles are available on board this CVP-809, please? Also, if I may, are there more that one can purchase should one wish to do so? Brilliant demo as always Tony :)
Does anyone know - the CVP809 allows a microphone to be used - but can you have it record the vocals as an overlay while playing? This would be a really useful feature to a song writer - to just be able to knock out a Piano+vocal demo to an audio file on USB...
The presentation is wonderful. However, video makers could pay attention to the dubbing! In the sheet music, the small ball hurries over the sound. Yamaha doesn't do that.
国戚皇亲 depends on the kind of amplifying the Genos. I have an 18 Sub with two stallites.....sounds Great. But this standalone cvp sounds great indeed.....
A ok Tony ...........Easy to play better than the Hammond skx I had off you never used it at all ..cant sell........ carrying with old organ .. .....................Greetings to you all & for 2020
I know I shouldnt say this - so much about this instrument IS amazing - but something about those auto-backing things - is just inherently cheesy. To my ear they somehow sound no different to the ones off a cheap casio 1980s keyboard. Yes, the sampling is better, obviously, but there is something still so horribly generic about the beats etc, that you just *know* the moment you hear it you're listening to a keyboard generated backing track. Don't know what the answer to that is, but I would have thought some AI which could cause a few more micro-variations in the drum and base parts to "humanize" them would be possible in this day and age...

Maybe one of the best electric pianos ever produced. Well done Yamaha as you continue to advance the arts. A piano worth owning.

Excellent demo, so comprehensive. Thank you! I really feel like buying one of these incredible pianos.
Fantastic playing... you make playing the piano look so easy...I’ve had many lessons and still can’t play 😪😪
Haha, I know the feeling....playing music, it is like roaring against the current....when you stop roaring, your boat goes back.....
Practice make perfect....
Love the technology in this model.
Tony, you are a génius!!! I sooooooo much enjoyed this your vid!!!
Thanks sooo much!!
Love it! Maybe in the future you could show all voices or all backing styles?

The price of yours cvp is still around 1700 pounds in England.
Yours CVP 409 still about £1700 in England.

Give it to your girlfriend, Haha!
Wow... That bosendorfer sample, that sound... Just wow
Went to my local piano shop this afternoon and tried this amazing unit out! I want to buy one now!
I am willing to buy this if someone comes to me and buy all of my sample libraries, Cubase, my P125 and Genos. Nothing is more beautiful than having a single unified gear instead of looking everywhere to make and enjoy playing music.
Very Nice Demo , I love my Cvp 809
getting this is now in my bucket list
Just wow 👏👏👏 Tony ! You are an amazing musician 🤩

Great except why isn’t the music finder not factory loaded ? Loading it into playlist makes its cumbersome to search .

Now this is an amazing instrument but out of my financial reach. I will have to stick to my PSR S970
Thanks for the in-depth review!
Outsatanding dream instrument.
Very nice demo and it's and awsome music instrumental. Even listening is a pleasure. Play on it ... the haven.
Do you have a comparison on the. Avant- grand n3x and the 809cvp gp
Does anyone know - the CVP809 allows a microphone to be used - but can you have it record the vocals as an overlay while playing?
This would be a really useful feature to a song writer - to just be able to knock out a Piano+vocal demo to an audio file on USB...
Those are really nice electric piano they have those same model in clavinova are the same.
How would the band accompaniment go with congregational singing?
Tony is a génius!
I love this piano i going to buy it can't wait
You're a rich bastard then?!
Lmaooo
Is the screen tactile or can I use it as a blind person?
Can you get this in a keyboard?
I have this too.
Tony can you please do a video on the CSP170?
what was the name of the piece you played on the studio grand within the cathedral room?
He’s playing I’m still standing
It's called Water Fountain by David Foster - very successful record producer who also has released several instrumental albums of his own.
Brilliant instrument
Can this piano play by itself ?
Thank you
The presentation is wonderful. However, video makers could pay attention to the dubbing! In the sheet music, the small ball hurries over the sound. Yamaha doesn't do that.
Большое спасибо!
To my ears, the sound quality of cvp 809 is even better than Genos. Any one agree?
yes very good amplification too.
国戚皇亲 depends on the kind of amplifying the Genos. I have an 18 Sub with two stallites.....sounds Great. But this standalone cvp sounds great indeed.....
They have the same sample sets.
A ok Tony ...........Easy to play better than the Hammond skx I had off you never used it at all ..cant sell........ carrying with old organ .. .....................Greetings to you all & for 2020
No 3 layers? :/
I have the CVP 709 ... what are the upgrades of the 809 over the 709 ? .. thanks
th-cam.com/video/igeuo-_nBW8/w-d-xo.html
I wish the cello vibrato were adjustable. It's terrible.
Also no pitch wheel?
Great Crhis Rea tune's The Road to Hell!!!
These are Tyrol 5 free style sound!
so what?
@@tom221263 so what...like$ 6000.00.
20:34 what is the name of this music?
I’d say sorry seems to be the hardest word by Elton John, but really not sure.
@@Sqwall289 thank u
