This C. Bechstein upright piano was built in Berlin Kreuzberg in the early 20th century. Its distinctive vintage character, owing to its generous proportion of resonating wood, was captured with a multi-microphone setup at Synchron Stage Vienna-s Stage B.

The upright-s very smooth action allows the finest gradations from pianissimo to fortissimo. In the main playing range its sound is more reminiscent of a small concert grand than of an upright piano. With its clear and accurate tonal development it conveys the intimate atmosphere of a small concert hall. The instrument-s mid range is very pronounced and focused, while its ageless character clearly asserts itself in all registers.

Brought to Stuttgart by pianoforte maker and dealer B. Klinkerfuss, W¼rttemberg-s sole representative for C. Bechstein and J. Bl¼thner, the instrument has always been in residence with families in the Stuttgart area. It was played by pianist and film composer Mick Baumeister, co-creator of the Hornberg breath controller, at different stages of his life. The upright was owned by Martin Friz who taught a young Mick improvisation on this instrument. Decades later, Mick purchased the piano from German actor Holger Daemgen-s family, and - as he puts it - it never ceases to inspire him and to find -the truth-.

Microphone Positions

In order to capture the sound of this marvelous instrument, our recording engineers used multiple high-end microphone arrays, affording an abundance of options for creating your individual sound.

  • Close 1 - Condenser (Neumann KM184 Sphere, X/Y)
  • Mid 2 (Schoeps KFM6 over the piano)
  • Main/Room Mic - Decca Tree Stereo (DPA 4006)
  • Main/Room Mic - Decca Tree Mono (DPA 4006)

Customize Your Personal Sound

The German Upright 1904 comes with the free Vienna Synchron Pianos software that offers multiple options for shaping your sound and your playing experience. In addition to the multitude of options from mixing various microphone signals, the player provides a full-blown mixer with a broad range of effects, such as EQ, compressor, saturator, algorithmic reverb, delay, chorus, flanger, rotary, and many more. You may also adjust the volume of body resonances, sympathetic strings and pedal noises right in the main Play window. In the Edit window you can even tweak EQ, volume, tuning, dynamic range, and more for each individual key.

A host of mixer presets offer a wide variety of characteristics, directly accessible in the main player window, from concert and intimate settings to pop, ambient and vintage sounds. Various signature and experimental FX presets round out the preconfigured sonic gems the German Upright 1904 has in store.

Sampling Precision

To capture the sound of the instrument with all its subtleties, our engineers deployed a highly precise motion-control system based on a solenoid that controls a noise-free -robot finger-. The micro-controller moves the finger with super-human precision, providing flexible curvatures for down-strokes and release movements, the latter corresponding with the preceding note length and various release speeds.

Good but a bit overpriced
Pattern Name: Half Ears (15-pack)
I like these as they are a good size and not as greasy as others. I have 4 dogs that get one each evening. It would be nice if they were a bit cheaper.

Apparently delicious to dogs!
Pattern Name: Half Ears (15-pack)
Bought these hoping they wouldn't be too large for my 10 lb. dog, and found that she loves them so much it doesn't matter that she can't finish one all at once. I think they are her favorite treat, and can last her days, so it is a great deal both for her, and for my wallet! (she also doesn't get them more than once every week or two!)

Chew that pig ear doggie
Pattern Name: Half Ears (15-pack)
These are halves of pig ears. My little dachshund doesn't need the entire ear. Half is much better size. And still we break the halves in half. She loves them. Helps clean her teeth while she is chewing and destressing. I would recommend to other dog owners.

So nice I ordered a second bag!
Pattern Name: Full Ears (25-pack)
I can’t say that ordering this brand has always been a success. I was ordering half ears. Then one bag came without an expiration date and they didn’t look so good. The next time I bought two of the smaller bags instead. Those ears seemed too small. Mostly OK though. Expiration date on the bag. But this last purchase of full ears looks really good. Expiration date on the package is 12/26. We are nearing the middle of May. So I ordered another bag. My piano teacher (weekly lesson) has two big, tough, but sweet dogs. They watch for me to come up the walk and wait at the door for their pig’s ears 🙂. Thanks! Update: second bag has September 2027 expiration date. Beautiful ears. Delivered next day and I don’t even have Prime. 🙂. Thanks!

So Far So Good
I adopted a young adult dog less than 2 weeks ago. She had spent over 12 hours a day in a crate and has excessive energy and anxiety built up. She is a strong chewer. So far, out of 6 toys, this is the only one still in one piece. It appears sturdy and extra bouncy. So much better than regular tennis balls.
