![]() ![]() It takes a great piano keyboard action, a great piano sound source, a place (a fast and efficient laptop computer with plenty of power, memory, and hard drive space) to store the virtual piano sounds, and a great speaker system (and headphones) to reproduce those fabulous virtual piano sounds as they were intended to be heard such as the ones on the Ivory program by the Synthogy company. Getting the piano sound to be great when using a piano controller takes a lot of things. I mean really, what's the point of getting the VPC1 and then spend the money for a separate laptop computer (which you may need to do) for use with the VPC1, and not have a great sound system? It's like having a great stereo recording and listening through cheaper speakers or just won't sound great. To really reproduce an actual acoustic 9' concert grand you would need at least 2 main speaker monitors and a good sub-woofer. Those monitors could cost anywhere from $400-$1000 or more depending on the space you have in the room and the fullness of the sound you might want. It's like physically forcing three full size 9' concert grands inside of your computer, so just imagine that when considering what your laptop computer would have to do! The you would need a separate speaker system or stereo monitors for the piano sound to go through so you could hear it. It's designed to give the piano player the best "key action feel and piano response" (because of its advanced 3-sensor key electronics) you can get in any regular digital piano "controller keyboard." No other brand comes close right now to this model when it comes to a pure "controller" digital pianos which control external computer based piano sounds that are not inside the digital piano itself.Īs far as the Ivory II virtual pianos go as an example, you would need to have a laptop that would be a stand alone device sitting on or near the VPC1 with enough hard drive space, a powerful CPU, and enough RAM to support the size and strength of the virtual piano program. Keyboard base providing extra stability when playing big chords, and yet it is portable (although it is a bit heavy) and looks like a piano without the stand or base. The VPC1's chassis is engineered from industrial aluminum & steel with a reinforced ![]() The VPC1 has Kawai's professional wooden graded hammer piano key action with simulated ivory grand piano keys allowing for a great keytop feel featuring a grand piano let-off/escapement function, 3-sensor key electronics for authentic sound dynamics and sensitivity, high speed core compliant USB/MIDI connectivity, all housed in an attractive satin black piano style top. ![]()
