The new entry-level model in the Kawai Concert Artist digital piano series.
As the successor to the CA49, the CA401 retains the popular Grand Feel Compact keyboard, but gets the new Shigeru Kawai EX Competition Grand Piano sound with Progressive Harmonic Imaging technology. The grand piano used for sampling is a unique piece that is used exclusively in international piano competitions and was specially prepared for this purpose. This new reproduction of the Shigeru Kawai flagship piano was recorded from the player's position and features a brilliant, clear sound with an expressive attack.
The speaker system of the CA401 not only benefits from a new loudspeaker tuning, but also from a new mains adapter, which offers particularly stable power and thus optimally supports the work of the amplifier in all situations and ensures a clearer sound .
Also new is the integration of bluetooth audio in addition to bluetooth midi. Both components use the latest Version 5 standard for lower latency, more stable connections and better sound quality.
The CA401 features a new intuitive control panel design and a 2.5" OLED display.
The enclosure design has also undergone some innovations. What should be highlighted here are the pedals that are moved back for an ergonomic, comfortable position and the new music holder pins.
