Yamaha launches CK76 76-key stage keyboard

Yamaha has expanded its CK series stage keyboard lineup with the introduction of the CK76. Positioned between the compact CK61 and the full-sized CK88, the new model features 76 semi-weighted keys using Yamaha’s FSB action. This design offers a middle ground for musicians requiring more range than a 61-key model without the weight and size of an 88-key instrument.

The CK76 is designed for portability and performance, featuring built-in speakers and battery-powered operation. It includes over 360 sounds, drawing from Yamaha’s CP stage piano and YC organ lines, covering acoustic and electric pianos, vintage organs, strings, brass, and synthesizers.

For live performance and recording, the keyboard includes physical controls such as nine organ drawbars, dedicated filter and envelope controls, and individual knobs for drive, delay, reverb, and EQ. Connectivity options include audio outputs, 5-pin MIDI in/out, two pedal inputs, and a built-in stereo USB audio interface. It also supports Bluetooth audio for playing along with backing tracks.
