SilentDrive - SilentDrive allows more precise control of the key and pedal solenoids by the PianoDisc 228CFX, PDS-128Plus or PianoCD control units. Precision control means greater fidelity and more life-like performance by the PianoDisc System.

The SilentDrive's four boards consist of one CPU (central processing unit) and three custom ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) chip-driven boards. The boards communicate using a type of serial information link that runs faster than MIDI. This electronic link allows for the almost instantaneous changes to the solenoid's speed when a new command is given. With SilentDrive, the PianoDisc system plays at much quieter levels, with whisper quiet movement of the solenoids and incredible dynamic expression.

TFT Record Strip - The TFT sensor strip, which PianoDisc calls Touch Film Technology, consists of four pieces of piezo polymer film. Each piece is screen-printed with conductive carbon ink on both sides, resulting is a pattern of 22 sensor fingers. The piezo film sensors are mounted between an aluminum strip and four printed circuit boards. When the pianist strikes a key, its movement slightly stretches the piezo film sensor over the curve in the aluminum strip. This action develops a voltage in the sensor, whose magnitude varies with the force of the key stroke.
