What's a CEUS?

Sorry. CEUS is the computer grand piano made by Bosendorfer.

From www.bosendorfer.com:


Wow. Out of my league, that's for sure, but interesting stuff.

Our acoustic grand is located in a specially made alcove to the left as you
enter the main door of the house.
Traditionally, the older Victorian houses in Europe were designed like this
before the days of home stereos, TV's and iPods. The "music" alcove with a
piano or harpsichord was intended to welcome visitors and was the
entertainment area of the day.

We have a second living room area on the second floor. It has one of these
in it:

It's ok, but getting a bit old technology wise. It *does* have a fairly
realistic grand piano sound (along with all the other midi type voices) but
it doesn't compare to the real thing.
