HOT GEAR Kawai NV10 Digital Piano Kawai has introduced the NV10 digital piano, the first model in its Novus Series. The instrument combines Kawai’s Millennium III acous- tic grand piano keyboard action, including a real damper mechanism, with the latest SK-EX Rendering piano sound engine and amplification technologies developed in col- laboration with audio specialists Onkyo. The modern NV10 also features built-in Bluetooth MIDI and audio connectivity and a 5-in. LCD touchscreen display embedded within its left cheekblock. An ebony polish cabinet is designed to give pianists the impression of playing a premium grand piano while occupying less floor space than a standard upright.
