With almost a century of fine piano craftsmanship as a foundation, Kawai takes the piano into the future with the GL-30 AURES 2 AnyTime Hybrid Grand Piano. Flawlessly blending advanced digital piano technology into the traditional grand piano, the GL-30 AURES 2 reaches new heights of musical possibilities. Pianists can use the 90 digital sounds independently or layered with the acoustic grand piano for novel and exciting tone combinations. Moreover, when the baby is sleeping, children are studying or neighbors need quiet, you can mute the acoustic piano and play silently through headphones.
The GL-30 AURES 2 has the outstanding touch of our awarding-winning GL Series grand pianos thanks to our renowned Millennium III carbon fiber action as well as the warm, vibrant tone Kawai grand pianos are known for. The digital sounds are produced by Kawai’s proprietary rendering and harmonic imaging XL technology. Plus, by using the PianoRemote app, players can enjoy other powerful features including record, metronome, split and layer modes as well as Bluetooth audio and MIDI connectivity. Discover the many musical possibilities of the GL-30 AURES 2. In one amazing instrument, you have all the best the acoustic and digital worlds have to offer.
