PianoArc Debuts at Cosmo in Canada

PianoArc on display at Cosmo Music in Canada

(November 2016)  PianoArc announces the shipping of our latest circle to Cosmo Music in Toronto Canada. Keyboard Department Manager John Ebata is overseeing the introduction to North America’s largest music store.  The latest PianoArc is an evolution of all that has come before it – with many ideas spurred by the insights and product expertise of John at Cosmo.

PianoArc “firsts” for this unit include:

Cosmo SN5

  • First circle made from 4, 72-note modular sections which makes the unit convertible into our Dual Wing design.
  • First PianoArc unit to include our new outboard standard 19″ rack mount “Super G” box.  Features of the Super G include:
    • One touch control of MIDI Zones.   Configure the circle from 3 to 16 separate MIDI channels with one touch.
    • 12 (that’s right twelve!)  1/4″ pedal inputs.  6 for Continuous Controller (Expression, Volume, Breath Control) and 6 On/Off (Sustain, Patch Change Up & Down).
    • LED/Light Show control.  Each of the 288 notes on the PianoArc has it’s own dedicated multicolor (programmable) high intensity LED  – and the new Super G Box allows control ranging from completely off, to on when played, to “light show mode” where the colors pulsate and swirl along with the player’s performance.
    • Additional USB power.  Powers your phone/tablet, sheet music reader, sound module etc.
  • First unit shipped to a prominent, national dealer.  Cosmo, through John Ebata, will handle all Canadian sales for PianoArc.
  • First unit to feature new XYZ controller pads  (more on this soon!).
  • First two-color circle (the 4 sections in SN5 can be moved around the circle in any order, without effecting the settings for MIDI etc).
