The PF500 focuses on an incredibly accurate reproduction of the sound and touch of an acoustic piano. Its Dynamic Stereo Sampling features three samples taken at various levels from loud to soft, for dynamic selection according to the user's touch on the keyboard. The result is a delicacy of tone and expression that is virtually indistinguishable from that of a real piano. String resonance and soundboard samples emulate the reaction between different notes, giving the PF500 an even more richly detailed sound. |

| The sound and
touch are unmatched, thanks to the GH (Graded Hammer Effect) keyboard. Unlike
conventional digital piano keyboards that use springs or oil dampers to simulate
a piano feel, the GH keyboard uses weights and mechanical linkages to achieve
an entirely new level of realism.
A wide selection of stereo-sampled voices (including grand pianos) is available from the front panel. General MIDI (GM) plus XG offers an additional 480 XG voices. Different voices may be selected for the left- and right-hand in "Split" mode; any two voices may be combined in "Layered" mode, or both modes may be combined to enable a total of four sounds to be produced simultaneously on the keyboard. The 128 notes of polyphony and Yamaha's new "intelligent" software ensure that the challenges of the most demanding musical applications can be met. |
