Studio Fazioli F212
Dynamic Depth, Delicate Detail
The Fazioli F212 is a masterpiece of Italian craftsmanship, staying true to the iconic manufacturer’s rich heritage and tradition. As a classic medium sized piano it offers a very different tonal characteristic compared to the massive flagship Fazioli F308, yet stands out with its own remarkably powerful sound. From the strong bass to the warm mid-range and the crisp upper registers, this piano offers a wealth of tonal colors and is rightfully considered one of the finest in its class. Its precise touch and excellent dynamic range allow you to express both delicate nuances and powerful chords, and facilitate the seamless switch between a multitude of genres. Whether it’s classical, jazz, or contemporary music, this piano reliably delivers. Vienna’s meticulous digital recreation obviously takes up less space in your recoding studio than the original, but it is also much more versatile, offering you a broad range of first class dry and reverberated options that ensure Italian Inspiration is always within reach.

Studio Fazioli F212
The Synchron Fazioli F212 was meticulously sampled in all its tonal glory at our Synchron Stage Vienna. Unlike its big brother, the F308, which was captured in the grandeur of Stage A, the F212 was recorded in the smaller, drier Stage B. With its highly controlled, tight ambience, this setting turned out to be the perfect sonic match for the unique tone of this instrument. In this intimate environment, with more direct signals and less room sound, every nuance of its rich sound unfolds and shines.
To capture the specific sound of the instrument along with all its subtle details, our engineers deployed an exceptionally precise motion-control system based on a solenoid that controls a noise-free “robot finger.” The microcontroller moves the finger with superhuman precision, providing flexible curvatures for downstrokes and release movements, the latter corresponding to the preceding note length and various release speeds.
