Once, you had to choose.
Do you want the feel and tone of a real, acoustic piano, with its fluffy wool hammers striking the steel and copper strings, energy flowing through a genuine spruce soundboard and filling your room with enthralling sound?
Or do you want to play what you want, when you want, and as much as you want without regard to your family or neighbors?
While digital pianos offer us the ability to play privately through headphones, they can lack the key response, tone, and even the look of a traditional piano.
Today, you can have it all.
The Seiler Silent Continental Console is a traditional piano that is ready for private practice – simply plug in headphones.
During the day, Silent Hybrid pianos play like a traditional world-class acoustic piano. At night – or whenever you want – they become completely silent to those around you. With a simple switch to SILENT mode, the acoustic piano’s full character—its tone, color, and resonance—is digitally captured so authentically, you might forget you’re not hearing the real thing through open air.
Pianos like the Seiler Silent Continental Console are thoughtfully crafted from the ground up by master artisans, built in the same factory and with the same time-honored techniques as Seiler’s renowned acoustic pianos.
Our silent hybrid pianos and upgrades are contactless – so nothing interferes with the touch or tone. This creates a truly hybrid piano, with a real acoustic piano action and the ability to play privately.
At the heart of this technology is cutting-edge, non-contact systems, which precisely capture the speed, depth, and force of every keystroke—faithfully preserving the full expression and subtle nuance of your playing. When switched to silent mode, you’ll have access to an impressive library of digital voices through your headphones—including a variety of grands, along with electric pianos, harpsichords, organs, strings, choirs, and synth pads.
You can easily select voices and record your performances without an advanced degree in computer programming.
These systems also integrate effortlessly with audio and MIDI setups. Whether you’re recording, performing live, or streaming, connectivity with computers, mixers, and other devices makes the process smooth.
Bring Your Piano to Life—Day or Night
You no longer have to choose between the soul of a traditional acoustic piano and the convenience of quiet practice. With today’s Silent Hybrid systems—like those found in the Seiler Silent Continental Console—you get the best of both worlds: the unmatched touch and tone of a handcrafted acoustic instrument, and the freedom to play on your terms, anytime, without disturbing a soul.
Our experts can install a silent system into virtually any piano, including your family’s heirloom.
Whether you’re investing in a new silent hybrid piano or looking to upgrade the beloved piano you already own, we have the perfect solution. We can retrofit a silent system into most upright or grand pianos, giving your instrument a modern edge without sacrificing its character—or your budget.
