ES100 Feature Highlights
Advanced Hammer Action IV-F weighted-key keyboard action
The Advanced Hammer Action IV-F keyboard action has been developed to represent the distinctive touch of an acoustic
grand piano, with its remarkable springless design providing consistent upward and downward motion for a smooth,
natural, piano playing experience.
Moreover, just as acoustic pianos utilise heavier bass hammers and lighter treble hammers, the AHA IV-G keyboard action
also employs dierent hammer weights, appropriately graded for each playing range. Such attention to detail allows
greater stability during fortissimo passages, while preserving delicate pianissimo control, to satisfy the demands of even
the most discerning pianist.
Harmonic Imaging™ (HI) sound technology, 88-key piano sampling
The ES100 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, analyzed and faithfully reproduced using proprietary
Harmonic Imaging ™ technology. This unique process accurately recreates the broad dynamic range of the original grand
piano, aording pianists an extraordinary level of expressiveness ranging from the softest pianissimo to the strongest,
boldest fortissimo.
Additional reverberation eects that simulate the acoustic environment of a recital room, small room, or concert hall are
also applied, resulting in a rich, vibrant piano tone that delivers breathtaking realism and authenticity.
Internal Song recorder, Built-in Lesson Function
The ES100 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 Burgmüller and 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 dicult passages to be
perfected.
