02-20-15 Show Notes

Hour one: Yamaha.  Yamaha Craig Knudsen, Designer/Marketing Consultant

Craig will discuss how Yamaha is using its expertise from more than 100 years of manufacturing musical instruments and the latest computer-based technologies to evolve the piano to new heights of interactivity for musicians. Among the many new features Yamaha’s hybrid pianos, Clavinovas, Disklaviers and TransAcoustic pianos offer are the authentic touch, feel and sound of acoustic pianos, pristinely sampled digital sounds, control apps and the ability to practice silently through headphones. In addition, Yamaha’s TransAcoustic piano is the first instrument of its kind to reproduce all acoustic and digital sounds from its soundboard, rather than from a speaker. These are not your grandparents’ pianos.

Hour two: Craig and Ben do Computer and Technology News, brought to you by Slimware Utilities, the Official Optimization Software of Computer America, and answer your computer questions!
