QRS Pianomation is a multi-media entertainment system that turns any piano into a player piano. Pianomation can play piano solos as well as music accompanying instruments and vocals. With a Pianomation entertainment system, your piano can provide live entertainment and ambience to every occasion in your home for intimate dinners to large parties.

Why Pianomation?

Today's player piano systems are based on solenoids and plungers that are computer-activated to move the keys. The design and construction of the solenoids and plungers is a key differentiator between brands and an important consideration when choosing your entertainment system. Pianomation has long been considered the "gold standard" in the industry for player piano technology, and with good reason.

Pianomation uses specially designed solenoids and plungers that eliminate problems commonly found in competitive systems.

QRS has specialized in what are popularly known as "player pianos" and the technology behind them for over one hundred years. Today when you purchase a state-of-the-art Pianomation system, your piano plays as if the original pianist were right there at the keyboard. Imagine legendary greats like George Gershwin and Liberace playing your piano! Every nuance and expression of the performance is faithfully captured and reproduced. And thanks to superior whisper-soft volume control, you determine exactly how loudly or softly your piano plays, making intimate conversations effortless.

To get the most from your player system, QRS has created the highest quality library in the industry, made up almost entirely of live performance recordings. Other libraries rely heavily on digitally orchestrated music that is created electronically and lacks the expression and richness of sound that can only be captured by recording artists live as they are playing. The Pianomation library has over 3,000 selections in every genre imaginable from classical and jazz to your favorite up-to-the-minute pop artists. Whether you're in the mood for contemporary favorites like Elton John, modern classics like Frank Sinatra, or music icons like Fats Waller, you'll find plenty to choose from, with new titles added monthly. CDs can be purchased one at a time or you can subscribe to NetPiano.COM^TM and have access to the entire QRS music library 24/7 through your computer!*

*SyncAlong CDs are not available through NetPiano.COM^TM at this time.

Only Pianomation offers you patent-pending SyncAlong audio capabilities. With SyncAlong CDs, your piano plays along with original audio recordings from today's most popular artists.

Accessories can add even more capabilities to Pianomation's already feature-rich system.

PNOscan^TM faithfully records and plays back performances on your piano using optical technology to capture all the expressive timing of the individual pianist. There is no mechanical interference to change the touch and response of your keyboard. Every detail of your original performance is captured, including the force, speed and duration of each note played.

The SilentPNO^TM option, along with a headset, gives you the flexibility to practice and compose in complete privacy without disturbing others.

The Total Performance^TM sound card enables you to play any of the thousands of industry-standard MIDI files currently on the Internet that contain orchestrated music in addition to piano.

Qtouch Tablet^TM gives you the freedom to control your Pianomation entertainment system from anywhere in your home using a wireless connection. Use it in conjunction with your NetPiano.COM^TM subscription and you can access thousands of songs from the QRS online library instantly.

Bring these versatile and powerful options together and you have two pianos in one, the value and beauty of an acoustic piano combined with the capabilities of a digital piano.
