When a hammer strikes a string, all elements of the acoustic piano resonate together to amplify
the unique sound of the instrument. TransAcoustic Technology uses these acoustic elements to
bring digital sounds to life, allowing you to adjust the volume and experience the piano in a
whole new way.
-
We created a state-of-the-art, ultra-light transducer that can turn digital sounds into
vibrations and apply them directly to the soundboard. All without sacrificing the remarkable
acoustic tone you’ve come to expect from a Yamaha piano.
-
Our patented non-contact Optical Sensor System continuously measures the movement, timing, depth
and force of every key attack and release to faithfully capture and reproduce the subtle nuances
of your performance.
-
By day it’s a world-renowned acoustic piano. By night, the neighbors won’t hear a thing. SILENT
Piano™ puts the sound and presence of the world’s finest concert grands in your headphones.
Simply switch TransAcoustic piano into SILENT mode and our digital technology reproduces the
acoustic tones, nuanced colors and resonance so faithfully you’ll almost forget you’re wearing
headphones.
-
When in SILENT mode, three proprietary technologies work together to emulate the natural feeling
and sound of an acoustic piano in your headphones. Virtual Resonance Modeling (VRM) recreates
the resonance of the strings, soundboard and case. Our advanced binaural sampling method
simulates the sound you hear when sitting at the piano. Smooth Release Technology models the
subtle interactions of the piano strings with the damper.
-
It’s easy to connect TransAcoustic with your audio and MIDI devices for recording, live sound or
broadcast and it works seamlessly with computers, mixing boards and Bluetooth®-enabled devices.
