QRS Music Technologies, Inc. (OTC: QRSM), a leader in the design,
manufacture and distribution of pianos, piano-based audio and multimedia
products, music and piano accessories, today announced that PNOscan™,
an optical recording device that provides connectivity to acoustic
pianos, will be used by musicians playing at the upcoming prestigious
Telluride Jazz Celebration during their performances, June 5-8. Artists
playing at the festival include the Neville Brothers, Dr. John and Les
McCann & Javon Jackson Band.
PNOscan was introduced in late 2006 and has been gaining popularity with
both serious musicians and recreational players. PNOscan was also
featured at the recent New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and was used
by Steinway artist Allen Toussaint who played with Elvis Costello.
PNOscan is currently being used on the two Steinway pianos featured in
Bette Midler’s “The
Showgirl Must Go On”, the headline show at
Caesars Palace,
“PNOscan bridges the gap between the features
and benefits of acoustic and digital pianos,”
said Tom Dolan, president and CEO of QRS Music Technologies, Inc. “It
holds huge appeal for serious musicians who prefer the touch and action
of an acoustic piano yet need a full range of digital capabilities.”
Installed underneath the key bed, PNOscan uses optical sensors to track
the movement of every key as it is played and translates the sound for
output via MIDI and USB ports, creating access to every application
currently available to the digital piano when connected to a MIDI device
or laptop. PNOscan can be retrofit by any Story & Clark dealer onto any
acoustic piano and is a standard installation on all Story & Clark
pianos. For more information about PNOscan, visit www.qrsmusic.com.
