  • NW-GH3 Weighted Action With Synthetic Ebony And Ivory Keytops Provides Grand Piano Touch Response
  • Dual Insertion Effect Systems Per Keyboard Section Enable Independent Processing Of Layered Sounds

  • USB Host And Device Ports Allow Direct Recording And Sample Library Expansion Without External Interface

The YC88 addresses the needs of professional keyboardists who demand both authentic organ response and premium weighted piano action in a single stage instrument. Built around Yamaha's Virtual Circuitry Modeling organ engine alongside AWM2 sample-based synthesis and FM tone generation, it provides 152 voices optimized for live performance—from tonewheel drawbar organs to acoustic pianos and vintage electric keys. The NW-GH3 keyboard mechanism employs synthetic ebony and ivory keytops across all 88 notes, delivering graded hammer weight that mirrors acoustic grand piano touch while maintaining the rapid articulation organists require.

Designed for integration into complex stage rigs, the YC88 offers balanced XLR and unbalanced quarter-inch outputs alongside dedicated rotary speaker modeling with three distinct algorithms. Dual insertion effect chains per keyboard section enable independent processing of split or layered sounds, while the three-band Master EQ with sweepable midrange provides fast tonal adjustment for varying venue acoustics. USB connectivity supports both host and device modes for recording workflows and expansion, complemented by traditional MIDI I/O for external module control.
