Re: [disklavier] New Diskalvier E3?

2009-01-20 by Kevin Goroway

Some more information here:

http://www.pianoworld.com/ubb/ubb/ultimatebb.php?/topic/1/25426.html

I think the biggest difference is that the E3 does not have silent mode (headphones).  (I couldn't live without that feature, and if you lived in my household and heard my piano playing, you couldn't either...  ;-)  )

It doesn't come with a WIFI remote, but I wonder if it will support the virtual PRC (and, therefore, DKVBrowser).

>The E3 is aimed more at people who may play the piano a little bit, but for whom the playback (or 'Home Entertainment') aspect of the piano is very important and who don't want to get into the complexities of some of the facilities available on the Mark IV. The inteface is simplified even when compared to the Mark III, using a simple remote control similar to the type you'd have for your DVD recorder.

There is no hammer sensor, but playback is more accurate and can handle lower volume levels than the Mark III because it uses a feedback (servo) system, similar to the Mark IV. AFAIK, it will be available on upright and grand pianos.
