Diverse sounds with sleek aesthetics
The VISIONKEY-500 ensures that you are given a distraction-free experience with an uncompromised sound and feel. As a result, the piano is packed with 10 high-quality sounds that match various musical styles, which can be accessed directly from the piano. Simply assemble the piano, and get playing straight away. From grand pianos to electric pianos and vibraphones, you have a rich palette of tones at your fingertips, emulated through its powerful in-built speakers. You can easily switch between the sounds using the intuitive function mode.
'Gear4music Piano' App
For more complex features, the VISIONKEY-500 has you covered. The piano includes its own intuitive app, entitled ‘Gear4music Piano’ For PC / For Mac / For Android Phone / For Android Tablet . Using this, it is possible to quickly change intricate settings on your piano, through a thoughtfully presented control panel, suitable for all musicians. The app works in real time, so you can even adjust settings mid-performance.
Voice controls include split, layer and twin modes, FX additions such as pan, reverb, chorus, tuning/transposition, EQ and volume settings. The app also contains 20 tempo and volume adjustable rhythms from various genres and styles, with complimentary fills, endings and verse/chorus settings. For a more student focused approach, a time signature and tempo adjustable metronome is available too.
The app also contains helpful learning tools, to boost creativity and engagement. For the inner composer prodigy, the record feature allows you to perform your own pieces, which are converted into notation in real-time. You can easily download your performances, and upload at a later date so you can play them back. As well as this, education tracks are available to play along with, which cater for beginners and advancing musicians alike. Metronome and hand selection options allow you to practice dedicated parts at a speed that is comfortable for you.
Seamless connectivity
USB to host connectivity allows you to connect the VISIONKEY-500 to your computer or recording equipment effortlessly. This feature is perfect for those looking to record their music, use virtual instruments via MIDI, or integrate with music production software. The straightforward connection ensures you can focus on your creativity without technical hassles. In addition, the headphone output allows for quiet practice sessions at any time without disturbing your neighbours!
Realistic playing experience
The VISIONKEY-500 boasts 88 weighted keys that closely replicate the feel of an acoustic piano. This design offers a responsive and dynamic playing experience, helping musicians of all levels refine their technique and expression. For those practicing between lessons, having a weighted keyboard at home is invaluable for building finger strength and ensures a seamless transition between instruments. Whether you're practicing scales or performing pieces, the VISIONKEY-500 provides the touch and responsiveness you need.
Expressive performance features
The VISIONKEY-500 includes a comprehensive three-pedal unit, providing the essential tools for expressive playing. Akin to the pedals included on grand pianos, these pedals provide access to sustained, soft, and sostenuto playing - this means you can perform with greater nuance and dynamic control. This addition also makes the VISIONKEY-500 an excellent choice for budding pianists taking lessons on a traditional acoustic piano, offering the same familiar controls at home.
