Elegant Design Meets Exquisite Sound and Extensive Features!
The UP-1 from Classic Cantabile is unquestionably a premium-class digital piano given its feature set and high-quality keyboard. At the same time, it sits in a price range that makes the instrument attractive even for ambitious beginners. The attractive UP-1 is truly a digital piano revolution!
40 High-Quality Sounds with Multisampling
With a total of 40 sounds, all featuring multisampling, the demanding pianist has a wide selection of tones to experiment with. From piano to strings to organ and harpsichord: the UP-1 fuels your creativity. Thanks to multisampling technology, where each piano key is represented by several different samples, the UP-1 upright piano sets new standards for piano tone.
Weighted Hammer Keyboard with Touch-Point Simulation and Ivory-Touch Surface
The weighted keyboard, touch-point simulation and triple-sensor system of the UP-1 authentically recreate the feel of an acoustic piano. The Ivory-Touch surface of the keys delivers an incredibly premium tactile experience. With dynamic touch sensitivity, the digital piano can be played like a classic upright or a concert grand. The keyboard's dynamic response can be adjusted in five stages via the Touch-Response function.

256-Note Polyphony
The UP-1 can produce up to 256 notes simultaneously, allowing you to play pieces across many genres (classical, rock, pop, etc.) in stereo while using multiple voices at the same time.

USB-to-Host Compatible with Common Piano Apps
The USB-to-Host output connects the UP-1 to computers, tablets and laptops. Via the common app stores you can pair the UP-1 with popular piano apps such as Flowkey, Skoove or Simply Piano. Beginners especially benefit from the learning features, and there are also numerous recording apps available. The UP-1 is compatible not only with Android apps but can also be conveniently connected to iPad and iPhone.
Damper Resonance
The UP-1's damper resonance function reliably simulates the inner workings of an acoustic piano. Each pedaled key stroke therefore sounds with its natural resonance.
22 Built-In Effects
To further refine the piano sound, the digital piano offers a total of 22 effects (10 reverb effects, 12 chorus effects). This ensures you can always find the right sound for the desired mood.
Layer and Split Functions
The Layer and Split functions let you comfortably stack and combine two sounds. This enables the creation of impressive sonic textures. The Split function divides the keyboard so that, for example, strings can sound on the left hand while piano sounds on the right. The volume of each side can be adjusted separately.
Twinova Function
The Twinova function was developed for teachers and students and allows the keyboard and pedals to be split into two halves. This creates two independent keyboards ideal for demanding piano lessons or practice sessions at home. The pedals can also be assigned separately to the left and right. This makes it possible to play as if on two separate pianos using a single instrument!
Wide Range of Connections with USB MP3 Player & Recorder
Another innovation is the wide range of connections and the built-in MP3 recorder of the UP-1. The 6.3 mm jack microphone/AUX input makes the piano attractive for entertainers. With the integrated USB MP3 recorder you can record directly to a USB stick. The clever part: all signals (vocals, key strikes and any external audio sources) are saved in a single stereo MP3 file. If the built-in Hi-Fi speakers don't meet your requirements, the stereo AUX output allows connection to a PA system or active monitors.
Transpose Function
The transpose functions let you shift the instrument in semitone steps, so it can be perfectly adapted to other tonal contexts, tunings and ensembles.
Metronome and Headphone Jacks
To always stay in time, the UP-1 features an integrated metronome that, in addition to displaying beats per minute, offers Italian tempo markings (Adagio, Andante, Allegro, etc.). The tempo can be adjusted steplessly via a rotary control. Two headphone jacks make it easy to play in the evening or at night when you don't want to disturb others.
3 Pedals for Maximum Dynamics
Like a concert grand, the UP-1 provides three pedals to shape tone and dynamics: the soft pedal (played with the left foot), the sostenuto pedal and the damper pedal, which lets notes ring out. The sostenuto pedal sustains already-played notes, while the soft pedal produces a softer tone.
HiFi Speaker System with Preset EQ
For powerful sound the UP-1 features a built-in stereo HiFi speaker system, which can be tailored to your needs using the integrated equalizer with 6 presets.
Above all, the arrangement of the four speakers enables excellent sound:
The two bass speakers are mounted underneath the play table. From there they project sound downward so that the floor-reflected sound creates a very natural room ambience. As a real highlight in this price range, the two speakers for the high frequencies are directed toward the pianist. This special configuration produces an exceptionally nuanced sound with full character. The USB and AUX inputs also make playback of external sound sources a real treat.

Comfortable and Stable Piano Bench
This piano bench offers high-quality features in addition to its elegant looks, such as stable legs with non-slip rubber, a smooth, precise spindle mechanism for height adjustment and a durable, comfortable seat with velour upholstery. The sophisticated spindle mechanism with double-scissor system guarantees smooth and extremely long-lasting height adjustment. Small details like the rubber stoppers between the base frame and the support frame clearly set this attractive piano bench apart from others in this price range.
Headphones
The Pronomic KH-900 is a professional stereo headphone that combines excellent sound characteristics with supreme wearing comfort at a pocket-friendly price. The soft, wide synthetic leather headband automatically adapts to head size for a comfortable fit. The KH-900 covers a wide frequency range from 15 to 25,000 Hz, delivering balanced, nuanced sound with brilliant, clear highs and precise, full bass. With a low impedance of only 32 ohms, the KH-900 can already deliver powerful sound and ample headroom from very low-power headphone outputs such as MP3 players or smartphones. The 3.5 mm stereo phone plug ensures excellent transmission, and a 6.3 mm stereo phone adapter is also included.
Piano Method
The method introduces the beginner to the instrument in a playful, relaxed way. Starting with well-known, simple melodies and progressing to two-handed playing of complete songs, it also conveys theoretical knowledge along the way. Reading notation, rhythm, dynamics and much more are covered alongside the exercises. The simple exercises guarantee quick learning success.

Questions about product
Question by Carmen Inarrea on 01.10.2023
Does this piano have a Graded Hammer Standar keyboard? Thanks in advance.
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:

Question by Jenni on 15.08.2023
How long does it take to assemble and disassemble the piano?
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
Approx. 30 minutes on average. Instructions are included in the delivery.
Question by Kai Beste on 15.03.2021
Good evening,
have great interest in the piano. My question: Is the piano compatible with apps like simplypiano or similar ?
Kind regards,
Kai
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
The USB-to-Host output allows you to connect the Classic Cantabile UP-1 to a PC or tablet and easily use apps like Simply Piano, Flowkey or Skoove.
Question by Krystian on 18.01.2021
Hello,
Does the piano need to be assembled?
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
The shipping box contains 5 individual parts of the digital piano. It consists of:
- console
- Feet (2x)
- pedal unit
- back panel
The complexity of the assembly does not exceed that of a standard cabinet and should therefore be easy to master. On the article page you will find an assembly video of another piano, which illustrates the process well.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Question by Mary on 16.08.2020
I am starting fresh now. Does the piano still need to be tuned or does it work like this?
And if I connect the headphones, can others not hear me play? That would be important for a Sunday in the house, for example.
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
The UP-1 is a digital piano and therefore never needs to be tuned. As soon as you plug in the headphones, the speakers are muted and thus almost silent playing is possible.
