Re: Roland’s 50th Anniversary Concept Piano
#12Over the last several weeks I have been deep in research for a new digital piano, spending a lot of time looking at Roland, Kawai, and Yamaha models, and seeing this made me giggle. I doubt I would ever buy even one of the less traditional-looking production models (like the Kiyola), but I am glad they have fun with creating wild concepts like this.
Same.
I'm about to just buy that P515... I can't stand the indecision any longer.

> As of now, the drones’ propellers are still somewhat noisy. But as quiet drone technology becomes available, they’ll be able to add it to the existing framework.

DJI has made a shocking amount of progress at making its drones quieter over the past few years. What used to sound like a loud swarm of bees 20 feet overhead is now almost imperceptible.
The volume of air moved remains a limitation of physics.
One thing the news release didn’t cover was whether there were attempts to integrate sound production into the coils of the motors.

Maybe a prop-stabilized blimp. You can hear flies and moths, no way a presumably 100+g speaker and a battery could be silent.

A good percentage of the producer digital pianos are just the flat keyboard and controls housed in a structure meant to look like a traditional piano.
The new Casio, for example, looks relatively modern and fits like furniture, but you could remove the body and put it into any crazy design you like.

#19It's odd there's no audio footage of it happening. Only a 6 second muted video.

Quadcopters sound like an enormous swarm of bees. I doubt the sound quality coming out of them is very good.
