if you already have our Synchron Yamaha CFX and Synchron Concert D-274, you should go for the SYNCHRON PIANOS BUNDLE PRICE and benefit from additional discounts (up to 30 %!!) to the introductory price!

Paul,

your mail states and/or Yamaha CFX/Concert D-274...

Hi Roberto, 

With this new bundle, you will always save when you complete the bundle, no matter which Synchron Pianos you already have. 

Best,
Paul

I asked you a similar question yesterday, but do you have plan to upload the videos other than a video you are currently uploading on YouTube?

I played it all day today and I like it. The mid/upper register is really clear and beautiful. That extra string for resonance makes a difference. I think the bass is really where the vintage sound of the piano is most present. It seems a little weak because I'm used to the massive sound of the VSL CFX and Steinway, but overall I'm very happy with the Bluthner. It's a beautiful period piano and I'm glad they chose the smaller studio to record it in. The smaller studio and piano provides a nice contrast to the bigger CFX/D concert grands. It's nice to sit down and have a variety of beautiful VSL pianos to choose from.

Thanks to the VSL team for making this available and for offering such a nice discount for those who own the other models. That's good marketing and it helps the consumer to feel even better about the experience. My 1TB SSD is almost full now with VSL pianos. I don't know what I'll do if they release another model. 

God Bless,

Hi, 

Thanks for the report, David!

Really happy to hear that you like our choice of piano and room, and it's great to see that our new Piano Bundle is received so well! Sooner or later, you will need a new SSD drive (good thing that those are really affordable right now!)

@Pbest: Yes, we will be uploading those videos to Youtube as well. Meanwhile, you can of course also download them from our website, if you want to go into detail. 

Best,
Paul

Paul, yesterday my piano teacher listened to Guy Bacos videos demonstrating the Bluethner and she loved the resonances, so I bought it!!!. Is it possible to modify scale tunning in synchron pianos?, for example, Kirnberger or Werckmeister for Bach works.

thanks to the entire VSL team for the work!!

Hi Sorrow27, 

Thanks for sharing the story! It is a remarkable piano indeed!

No automatic scales in there yet, but you could go in and edit the tuning in the EDIT window. 

Hope we can implement a more comfortable solution in the future (not a priority right now)...

Best,
Paul

Hi,

There is an additional clarity in the lower resonance (to my ears), but it lacks the deep, rumbling, resonant power of the larger modern concert CFX/D models. I think Mozart and Bach would sound great on it. 

The Bluthner is very smooth and easy on the ears. I even noticed less brain/ear fatigue after playing for an extended period yesterday. 

God Bless,

David

So here I was agonizing over which piano to buy, and then this bundle comes out.  Obvious choice, there.  The Bluthner sounds spot-on for that "Chopin-esque" feel.  Many thanks!

I've tried an adaptaton of Scriabin's Etude in C# minor on this piano, that could have been the one on which the piece has been created:

Scriabin Etude C# minor (Blüthner)

This is the Standard edition. I might need some other close mics. And some more extreme dynamic change, since the piano is very much responsive to touch.

The Synchron Blüthner 1895 Aliquot Grand Piano is a very useful addition to our high-class Synchron Pianos. 

Paul, 

Will there be a walkthrough video?

Thank you, 

Lawrence

Hi Lawrence,

It's already there (last in the list).

Thanks for the link. I didn't realize it was there. (I had looked on Youtube)

Hi, 

Thanks for the input, just uploaded the walkthrough to Youtube as well!

Paul
