Silent systems

HOW DOES A SILENT SYSTEM WORKS?

A silent system can be built into an acoustic piano or grand piano. This creates possibilities in a piano that would otherwise only be possible with a digital piano. Mainly the advantage of being able to play with headphones. The system consists of a damper-rail; this ensures that, when switched on, the mechanism is still fully functional but the hammerheads no longer touch the strings. This way the piano still feels like you normally play, but the piano doesn't make sound anymore. The strings are stopped about 2 mm in front of the strings. An infrared sensor rail is also installed under the keys. This measures the speed, hardness and depth when each key is pressed. This translates this to the systems computer, which is located in the control unit. Here it is converted into a signal that you hear on the headphones. All the possibilities of touch sensitivity and pedal use are fully compatible with the silent system.
