A variety of keyboard layout options. Simply by pressing one button, you can apply a bass sound to the lower register of the keyboard. Play piano with your right hand and bass with your left to instantly enjoy jazz performance styles. By pressing two of the tone buttons simultaneously, you can easily layer two sounds together.

This is a great way for teacher and pupil to play duets or copy and practice during lessons.
Forty piano songs with helpful features for practicing. In addition to ten demonstration songs that showcase the different sounds of the C1, there are also 40 built-in piano songs. To help you learn, you can control the tempo, play back the right-hand and left-hand parts separately, and use A-B repeat to practice more complex sections.
Equipped with three pedals as standard with half-pedalling feature. The pedals are an essential element of piano performance, and the C1 Air is equipped with the full complement of three pedals found on a grand piano: damper, soft and sostenuto. The damper and soft pedals also feature half-pedalling for even more detailed expression.
