Enjoy the authentic feel and tone of your piano while taking advantage of silent practice.

What is a Silent Piano System

A silent system is a precision-installed mechanism inside your upright or grand piano.

When activated:

  • A discreet stop rail prevents the hammers from striking the strings

  • Optical or contact sensors capture every keystroke

  • High-quality digital piano sounds are played through headphones

  • Switch it off and your piano returns instantly to full acoustic performance.

Silent systems can be professionally fitted to most:

  • Upright pianos

  • Grand pianos
