Thank you. I have time and money invested in my process, but I'll say that the equipment and software is very inexpensive, and the signal is flat EQ as is every one of our demos.

You're welcome! It really is amazing what you can do these days for a fraction of the price of 10 or 15 years ago.

What about compression and/or noise reduction?

The only compression is what YouTube does. The audio is mixed into the video before exporting, but usually only the video is compressed down to 720p. I record at 44.1kHz and 24 bit. I rarely use simple noise reduction, but not for that video recorded using this technique. It's as pure, simple and versatile as I can make it for now. All my regards to misters Trial and Error.

I sometimes wish people would judge pianos more like restaurants. It would perhaps go like this:

"Well, this is great restaurant, the food is real delicious. But since it hasn't been around for long I wouldn't dare to eat there."

Isn't it funny that sometimes the exact opposite seems to be the case: everybody running out to see what the fuzz about the new place around the corner is all about?

By the way, some other makers argue same. They don't take a manufacturer serious unless been around for at least 200 years.....

Want names?

The analogy might make sense if the price of dinner cost the same as a piano... but it doesn't.

Or if the dinner was designed to last as long.
