Yamaha, Compact silent cello performs like a traditional celloYamaha Corporation of America recently added a Compact Silent Electric Cello to further complement the family of silent instruments. Traveling with a cello is now more convenient than ever with Yamaha's new Compact Silent Electric Cello.Just like the successful Silent Electric Cello, this instrument allows musicians to put on a pair of headphones and enjoy the sonic richness and tone of a concert quality cello, while creating very little external sound. Or alternatively, they can connect the instrument to an amplifier to reach entirely new levels of public performance. Whereas the original Silent Electric Cello was designed to reflect the classic look and form of an acoustic cello, the Compact Silent Electric Cello has retractable sides that allow for easy transport. Although the instrument plays just like a full-size acoustic cello, only those portions of the instrument that a player would interact with are represented. This gives the instrument a very striking appearance but requires little adjustment for players who are accustomed to playing an acoustic cello. Yamaha has achieved the technological feat of creating a Silent Cello by redesigning the traditional cello without the internal resonating chamber. Instead, a studio-quality audio pickup located below the bridge is connected to an internal effects processor (powered by two AA batteries or AC power) that places the sound in a selected virtual acoustic space, such as a concert hall or practice room. Just like the successful Silent Electric Cello, the resulting sound is a warm and rich, full-bodied tone that not only can be listened to through headphones in privacy, but also can be amplified externally for live performance. In addition, an auxiliary input on the body of the cello can easily connect to an external CD player or tape machine for practicing along with pre-recorded music. The introduction of the new Compact Silent Electric Cello follows on the success of the company's Silent Electric Cello, Silent Electric Violin, and Silent Brass products in recent years, which together represent a growing silent series of Yamaha instruments. Yamaha expects the new Compact Silent Electric Cello will appeal to a variety of users, including those who need to travel with an instrument and those who practice in hotel rooms on the road. Just like the original Silent Cello, the Compact Silent Electric Cello also performs exceptionally well during live gigs, when plugged into an amplifier or PA system. "Up until now, it has been difficult to hear a traditional cello in a contemporary ensemble that would also include an electric guitar, electric bass, and drums," explains Mike Schaner, Yamaha product manager. "With the Silent Electric Cello, a cellist now can cut through the sound mix and be heard, particularly in stadiums and concert halls. "Ever since we introduced the Silent Electric Violin last year, string players have been asking Yamaha to develop instruments for other members of the string family. Now cellists can enjoy the benefits of the Silent Series as well with the choice of the Silent Electric Cello or the Compact Silent Electric Cello," adds Schaner. + Post comment/question/reply Pianist Paul Sheftel Yamaha Disklavier Pro DCFIIIS Recording Mastering Classic Favorites to see the Yamaha Disklavier sitting there at KAS," says Lauren Keiser, CEO and president of Carl Fischer, and editor for the series.
