Viscount Legend '70s Piano/Keyboards
The Viscount Legend ’70s introduces the concept of a MODULAR STAGE PIANO that allows you to customize the instrument according to your needs. The superb sound quality, thanks to the unique VISCOUNT PM (Physical Modelling) technology and the accurate response of the keyboard, is combined into a portable instrument of the highest quality.
" I have taken the time to play the Legend '70s Compact EX at length and I have to say that Viscount has built into these piano/keyboards a truly pianistic, highly expressive keyboard action that is not unlike the expressiveness of my own Schimmel grand piano with its modified Renner action." - Cliff Unruh, Hammond Central
The LEGEND ’70s, available in both 73 and 88-key formats, offers the unprecedented ability to customize your instrument with several Sound Modules equipped with state-of-the-art Sound Generators, including physical modelling. The Modules can be easily positioned and swapped on the front panel, according to your personal musical needs.
Currently the following modules are available to enhance the piano:
A.PIANO MODULE
CLAVI MODULE
EXTERNAL MODULE
SYNTH-8 MODULE
Each module installed in LEGEND ‘70s piano has its own, discreet, sound generator specially designed to reproduce its sound set. This arrangement gives a great advantage over the whole instrument polyphony, avoiding the “sound generator processor share” that affects all the competitors' sampled pianos when many sounds are played in at the same time.
The ACOUSTIC PIANO and SOUND COLLECTION modules are powered by HDS (High Definition Sampling) technology characterized by the detailed sampling of acoustic instruments and the ability to reproduce the entire dynamic range of each instrument.
The ELECTRIC PIANO and CLAVI modules are powered by Viscount’s patented Physical Modelling (PM) technology which, through complex mathematical algorithms, is able to reproduce with absolute fidelity the dynamic and physical-acoustic phenomena of the electric piano, giving you the most expressive and authentic performing experience ever. Experienced musicians know very well that almost all pianos on the market, using the sampling technology, suffer from the “Slicing Problem”, because, for specific groups of keys and dynamic range, they use the same sample! This approximation causes an annoying timbre discontinuity. Viscount PM technology does not have this problem at all, since, for each key and dynamic level, the sound is perfectly calculated through the precise mathematical model of the real instrument.
Players can choose between the 73-key Compact (shown at the top) or the 88-key Artist Series available with the superb standard keybed or the truly artistic wooden key action:
