Amazingly crisp and clear, the next-generation OLED display is neatly tucked into the left side panel. The CN29’s powerful sound system features key components from audio equipment specialist Onkyo.

FEATURES

TONE

The CN29 offers a highly detailed acoustic portrait, employing Kawai’s proprietary Progressive Harmonic Imaging sampling technology to ensure smooth tonal transitions across the keyboard and throughout the entire dynamic range.

 

TOUCH

The new class-leading Responsive Hammer III keyboard action on the CN29 re-creates the exceptional touch of an acoustic grand piano with its realistic movement and rigid “springless” design working together to provide a smooth, natural piano playing experience. A triple-sensor key detection system enhances responsiveness and accuracy.

 

IVORY TOUCH KEY SURFACES

The impressive CN29 features our highly-regarded Ivory Touch key surfaces This finely-textured material gently absorbs fingertip perspiration and oils to avoid slipping and provide greater playing control. Moisture is absorbed without dirt or grease permeating the key surfaces, allowing them to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.

 

SUPERIOR SOUND

The new CN29 features a premium speaker and audio system developed by audio equipment specialist Onkyo delivering improved tonal clarity and superior sound. Lower-range frequencies are delivered through the underside of the instrument, while mid and high frequencies are projected outward via top-mounted speakers, closely mirroring the sound projection characteristics of an acoustic piano.

SONG RECORDER

The recorder on the CN27 allows up to three songs to be stored in internal memory and played back at the touch of a button. These recordings can serve as convenient self-assessment tools for players of all skill levels.

 

BLUETOOTH®

In addition to standard USB and MIDI ports, the new CN Series also boast integrated Bluetooth MIDI technology, allowing the digital piano to communicate with supported smart devices wirelessly.

 

CONCERT MAGIC

This exclusive feature lets anyone enjoy the thrill of playing the piano, even if you’ve never played before.

 

LESSONS AND EXERCISES

In addition to Alfred Publishing’s Basic Piano Course 1, Premier Course 1 and Adult Course 1 lessons, the new CN29 now comes with the Chopin Walzer (1-19) lessons book built in. It also includes printed music and recordings for time-tested finger exercises such as scales, arpeggios and Hanon songs.

 

VIRTUAL TECHNICIAN

A skilled piano technician can personalize an acoustic piano’s sound and touch response. Kawai’s exclusive Virtual Technician app does the same for the CN29 digital piano.

 

GRAND FEEL PEDAL SYSTEM

The CN29 features three pedals – soft, sostenuto, and damper (with half-damper capability). The new Grand Feel Pedal System reproduces the individual weighting of each of the three pedals of the Kawai EX concert grand.

 

ADJUSTABLE MUSIC REST

As with a grand piano, the viewing angle of the CN29 music rest can be adjusted to suit the performer’s playing position or laid flat to provide a level surface for notating scores.
