Galileo Adds ‘Virtual’ VP-111 Piano
High-performance entry-level digital piano designed for students
Galileo Music – based in Cape Cod, Massachusetts - announced today the addition of the VP-111 “virtual” piano to it’s digital piano collection. The VP-111 is the first model in the company’s vertical line of digital pianos and features the companies’ latest piano technologies and an all-new full hammer key action.
The VP-111 starts with Galileo’s exclusive “iMotion” piano technology – which combines such acoustic anomalies as “string resonance”, “key leverage” and “damper dynamics”. iMotion makes it possible to reproduce sympathetic resonance and damper dynamics in REAL TIME. This process makes the performance more natural and allows for a greater range of tone and dynamics. a morphing technique that combines such acoustic anomalies as “string resonance”, “key leverage” and “damper dynamics” – and then it adds an all-new soft- ware technology that creates various ‘virtual’ piano types – including ‘concert grand’, ‘baby grand’ and ‘vertical’. The virtual-piano technology analyzes the room and changes the quality of the sound – creating ‘bigger’ or ‘smaller’ pianos according to the user settings. Another unique innovation is the optional “Vocal Guide” – which uses a speaking interface to explain settings and features - an especially useful tool for the blind or visually-impaired.
With the student in mind, the Galileo VP-111 features an Italian-designed cabinet with sliding key cover – available in a handsome dark rosewood finish. Other features of the VP-111 include: a ‘Grand Response’ full-hammer action keyboard; built-in metronome; 2 headphone jacks for private practice; MIDI In/Out/Thru; and stereo audio inputs & outputs. All of these features are presented in a minimalist control panel designed specifically for piano students.
