DC2M4 Built to Perform
The Ultimate in Personal Music Entertainment Ever since the original Yamaha Disklavier introduced the marvels of hybrid acoustic/digital pianos back in 1986, these computer-age ‘player’ pianos have evolved into instruments that can reproduce ‘live’ acoustic piano concerts and ensemble music with instrumental backings and vocal tracks. The Disklavier Mark IV takes this all a step further. Yamaha’s unique combination of both acoustic and digital superiority has made it the obvious choice of music-lovers, pianists, and educators worldwide. Its easy-to-operate user functions make the Disklavier a breeze to customize and automate, always giving you the right music at the right time. Combining the tone and touch of world-class Yamaha grand pianos with an astonishing range of interactive capabilities, the Mark IV is the ultimate piano for home entertainment systems, business establishments, or educational and creative environments.

Music So Inspiring You’ll Want to Sing Along Just connect a microphone to the Disklavier Mark IV piano and sing along through its built-in speakers. To fine-tune your experience, the Mark IV offers performance-enhancing vocal effects including room, stage, hall, and reverb. You can choose to display song lyrics externally on any TV monitor.
A Built-In Amplified Speaker System Only Possible From Yamaha The Disklavier Mark IV performs as a stand-alone unit or as part of the ultimate home audio/video system. With genuine Yamaha speakers, each powered monitor is discretely mounted at an outward angle sending music away from the piano for a more spacious overall sound. For larger audio systems and installations, flexible output routings are provided to send music to any part of the house your system allows. Outputs assigned to areas far from the Disklavier can have a digital piano sound inserted into the audio stream, while keeping a background only mix sounding in areas near the acoustic piano.
Low-Profile Hardware Provides the Gateway for All of Your Music Using the Media Center, software can be played directly from the built-in floppy disk and CD drives, and removable USB storage devices*, or loaded to internal memory for easy access. Convenient connections include headphone outputs, microphone input, and USB ports. The retractable glossy, black cover conceals the Media Center and matches the finish of the piano’s cabinetry.
* Certain USB storage devices may not function properly with the Disklavier Mark IV Series

With the ability to play the right and left hands independent of one another on selected software titles, as well as vary the tempo, practicing piano on the Disklavier has become a truly interactive experience. Add to this the fact that many popular method and lesson books are being offered with hands-separate recordings on disk, and you’ve got the ultimate music practice partner.
