TransAcoustic

The third generation of Transacoustic pianos combines the world of acoustic and digital pianos more than ever before. A transacoustic piano is basically a regular piano that can be played acoustically, but also has a bunch of digital functions which means the piano can also be played in Silent Mode and Hybrid Mode.

Hybrid Mode

In hybrid mode combines digital sounds with acoustic elements. It’s possible to dampen the acoustic sounds by preventing the hammers from hitting the strings and rely on the digital aspects of the piano, but you can also use the piano fully acoustically. The digital system uses sounds from world-famous systems like the Yamaha CFX piano and the legendary Bosendörfer Imperial piano, whose sounds have been recorded carefully and properly. These recordings were transformed into new samples that can be revived with the specially designed transducers. The system is most unique when the acoustic sound is dampened because the digital sound still uses acoustic elements like the vibrating soundboard and the string resonances. This makes it possible to play the piano at a lower volume but still retain its beautiful sound character.

Silent Mode

You can also play in silent mode with the Transacoustic pianos. The acoustic part is blocked and the digital sound can be limited to your headphones. This is ideal if one of your family members wants to, for example, watch television but another wants to play the piano. The binaural technology makes the headphones sound incredibly high quality and authentic.

App

The third generation of Transacoustic pianos has Bluetooth connectivity which means you can connect to your smartphone wirelessly. The versatile Smart Pianist app has many different handy functions and more sounds to select or edit. The app also contains lessons and a rhythm section. You can also play along to your favourite music or even use the piano as a speaker.
