running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1.You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2.You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a)You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

b)You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

c)If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to

the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3.You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: a)Accompany it with the complete corresponding

machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b)Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

c)Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then

Yamaha piano manual

piano specifications

Yamaha pianos are renowned for their exceptional quality, rich sound, and innovative technologies, making them a popular choice among musicians and music enthusiasts. With a history dating back to 1887, Yamaha has continually evolved its piano designs to meet the needs of players across genres and skill levels.

One of the main features that sets Yamaha pianos apart is their diverse range of models, which includes acoustic, digital, and hybrid pianos. Acoustic pianos, such as the popular C-series grand pianos, are constructed with high-quality woods and materials, providing a traditional playing experience characterized by a rich tonal palette and impressive resonance. The YDP series of digital pianos incorporates advanced features while maintaining a traditional aesthetic, making them ideal for home use.

Yamaha's dedication to innovation is evident in its digital pianos, which boast cutting-edge technology. The Real Grand Expression (RGE) technology in premium models ensures an authentic touch and sound experience, closely mimicking that of an acoustic piano. The Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) action emulates the heavier touch of lower keys and lighter touch in higher keys, allowing players to develop proper finger technique.

Another notable technology found in Yamaha pianos is the Intelligent Acoustic Control (IAC), which optimizes sound output at various volume levels. This feature ensures that the piano sounds full and balanced whether played quietly or at concert levels. Additionally, the Acoustic Optimizer improves sound projection and tonal clarity, delivering a more immersive playing experience.

For those who seek an interactive learning experience, Yamaha integrates educational features in its digital models. The Smart Chord and Smart Pianist app allows users to explore new songs and practice effectively, making it easier for beginners to learn and understand music theory.

Yamaha pianos are also designed with durability and craftsmanship in mind. The use of premium materials and precise manufacturing processes ensures that each instrument not only sounds incredible but is built to last. This commitment to quality and performance makes Yamaha pianos a trusted choice for aspiring musicians and seasoned professionals alike.

Ultimately, whether you’re looking for an elegant acoustic instrument or a technologically advanced digital piano, Yamaha offers a wide selection that meets the needs of every player, combining tradition with innovation to create instruments that inspire creativity and passion for music.
