QRS System
If you have a good acoustic piano that you’d like to be able to use Piano Marvel with, and you have a larger budget, the QRS system is a great option for you. The system is a strip of laser lights that is installed under the keys in your acoustic piano. It maintains all the qualities of the original piano, including sound and feel, but adds all the benefits of a high-end digital piano. The price covers installation. It’s a truly magical way to use Piano Marvel and all kinds of other midi programs. If you’re interested in this option, please reach out to Piano Marvel directly for this special price and for help finding a dealer in your area and getting everything installed and working.
