CN25 digital piano to be enjoyed almost immediately after being connected, while the Internal Songs section (page 21) includes

information regarding the built-in demonstration songs, Concert Magic songs, and Lesson function.

The Recorder section (page 30) provides instructions on how to record and play back pieces stored in the instrument’s internal

memory, and the Settings section (page 32) details the settings that can be used to adjust a number of sound and keyboard

characteristics, as well as system settings.

CN25 Feature Highlights

Responsive Hammer III weighted-key action, with Ivory Touch key surfaces and Let-o simulation

The new Responsive Hammer III (RHIII) action recreates the distinctive touch of an acoustic grand piano, with its realistic

movement and accurate 3-sensor technology providing a smooth, natural, and highly responsive piano playing

experience. The weight of the keyboard is appropriately graded to mirror the heavier bass hammers and lighter treble

hammers of an acoustic piano, while structural reinforcements within the action assembly ensure greater stability during

fortissimo and staccato passages.

The CN25 digital piano also features Kawai’s Ivory Touch key surfaces that gently absorb nger moisture to assist the

player’s performance, while, let-o simulation recreates the subtle ‘notch’ sensation felt when softly playing the keys of

a grand piano, satisfying the expectations of the most discerning pianists.

Progressive Harmonic Imaging (PHI) with 88-key piano sampling

The CN25 digital piano captures the beautiful sound of Kawai’s highly acclaimed hand-built concert grand piano, with

all 88 keys of this exceptional instrument meticulously recorded, analysed and faithfully reproduced using proprietary

Progressive Harmonic Imaging™ technology. This unique process accurately recreates the broad dynamic range of the

original grand piano, aording pianists an extraordinary level of expressiveness ranging from the softest pianissimo to

the strongest, boldest fortissimo.

Additional modelling techniques and eects, such as reverb and damper resonance are also applied, delivering a

selection of vibrant piano tones with breathtaking realism and authenticity.

Internal Song recorder, Built-in Lesson Function

The CN25 digital piano features a three song recorder, allowing performances to be recorded to internal memory and

played back at the touch of a button.

In addition, the convenient lesson feature allows aspiring pianists to learn the piano using a built-in collection of etudes

from Czerny and Burgmüller, or songs from the popular Alfred course books. The left and right hand parts for each piece

can be practiced separately, while adjusting the tempo allows more dicult passages to be perfected.

Playing the Piano

Using the Pedals

As with a grand piano, the CN25 digital piano features three pedals: sustain, sostenuto, and soft.



Pedal support bolt

If the pedal support bolt does not make contact with the oor,

the pedal board may become damaged. Ensure that this bolt is

fully extended and supports the pedals rmly.

When moving the instrument, always adjustor

remove the pedal support bolt, then readjust

whentheinstrumentisinitsnewposition.



Caring for the pedals

If the surface of the pedals becomes dirty, clean the pedals using a dry dish-washing sponge.

Do not attempt to clean the pedals using rust-removing solvents, abrasives or les.



GrandFeelpedalsystem

The CN25 digital piano features the new Grand Feel pedal system, which replicates the sustain, soft, and sostenuto pedal

weighting of Kawai’s EX Concert Grand piano.

Soft pedal

Sostenuto pedal

Sustain pedal



Sustain pedal (right pedal)

Depressing this pedal sustains the sound after one’s hands

have been lifted from the keyboard - greatly enriching the

piano sound, while also assisting smooth ‘legato’ passages.

The sustain pedal is capable of responding to half pedaling.



Soft pedal (left pedal)

Depressing this pedal softens the sound, reducing its volume.

When the Jazz Organ sound is selected, the soft pedal is also

used to alternate the speed of the rotary speaker simulation

between ‘Slow’ and ‘Fast’ eect modes.



Sostenuto pedal (centre pedal)

Depressing this pedal after playing the keyboard and before

releasing the keys, sustains the sound of only those notes that

have been played. Any keys that are subsequently played after

the sostenuto pedal is depressed will not be sustained.

Playing the Piano

Dual Mode

The Dual Mode function allows two sounds to be layered together, creating a more complex sound.

For example, a piano sound layered with strings, or an electric piano combined with a harpsichord etc.



Enabling Dual Mode : Method 1 (Pleaserefertopage12-13OperationGuideSOUND.)

Press and hold the SOUND SELECT button, then press two of the lowest 8 white keys or 11 black keys simultaneously.

The sounds corresponding to the two keys will be layered together.
