The Yamaha CVP-909GP delivers the complete CVP-909 feature set in a grand piano form factor. The lid raises. The fallboard opens. At nearly 49 inches deep and 130 kilograms, this instrument occupies the footprint and silhouette of a baby grand. Voice and audio systems are identical to the CVP-909: 1,605 preset voices, the Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial through binaural sampling and Grand Expression Modeling, and the multi-component speaker array with Spruce Cone woofer. The form factor changes the posture, the sight line, and the physical experience of sitting at a grand piano.

| Width | 35-15/16″ (913 mm) |

The CVP-909 uses the GrandTouch Keyboard: wooden keys, synthetic ebony and ivory key tops, escapement, and 88-key Linear Graded Hammers. Two components distinguish it from the CVP-905. Counterweighted keys add mass that simulates the physical inertia of a grand piano’s hammer mechanism, improving key return speed and consistency across all dynamic levels. The GP Response Damper applies variable resistance to the sustain pedal throughout its full travel, reproducing the continuous physical feedback of an acoustic grand pedal rather than the binary response of a standard digital piano pedal.
The CVP-909 carries the largest voice library in the upright Clavinova range: 1,605 preset voices, 58 Drum/SFX Kits, and 480 XG Voices. Accompaniment styles number 675, with seven fingering modes and full intro/main variation/fill/ending controls. One Touch Setting automatically pairs the correct voice and tempo to each selected style.
Both core piano voices were recorded key-by-key with binaural microphone technology. Virtual Resonance Modeling and Grand Expression Modeling render the harmonic and expressive complexity of the CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial in real time, including sympathetic string resonance, hammer variation, and tonal changes across the full dynamic range.
The CVP-909 drives 16 cm woofers, 5 cm midrange drivers, and 2.5 cm dome tweeters in two channel enclosures, plus a 20 cm Spruce Cone speaker in a dedicated sub-bass cabinet with a Twisted Flare Port for reduced turbulence and extended low-frequency response. This same architecture is used in the CVP-909GP.
Two headphone jacks, microphone input with Vocal Harmony processing (54 Preset + 60 User), MIDI IN/OUT/THRU, Bluetooth Audio, two USB TO DEVICE ports, and one USB TO HOST port. Internal storage of approximately 2 GB supports full session recording in WAV and MP3.
