How does ACOUHYB sound?

The "Crazy Piano Timbre" has a unique sound, which captivates the audience that listens to it.  

With this new mechanism (invented by piano restorer and tuner Sergey Gogolev)  we can maintain the identity of the piano sound in almost all its magnitude, but also, we can access two different sound identities.

ACOUHYB System, Effect of Overtones on Piano Sound, Brief Explanation

   ACOUHYB SYSTEM  ACOUHYB is a revolutionary piano design featuring a fourth string added to the middle and upper registers. This unique innovation enhances both traditional tuning and the new acoustic possibilities offered by the ACOUHYB technique, enriching the instrument’s sound with greater resonance and sustain. The ACOUHYB system was invented and patented in Barcelona Spain, and later developed and manufactured by the newly established Japanese piano company Enschu, based in Shizuoka — Japan’s renowned hub for musical instrument production. One of the system’s most intriguing aspects is its ability to incorporate multiple timbral settings. The ACOUHYB can feature a selection from at least seven proposed timbral configurations: 1. Timber U Chord 2. Timber PT 0/1 3. Timber PT 0/4 4. Timber PT 0//1/4 5. Timber PT 0/8 6. Timber PT 0//1/8 7. Timber PT 0/4/8 When we first heard the primary timbre of a grand piano equipped with the ACOUHYB system, it was immediately clear that we were experiencing an entirely new acoustic phenomenon — something unprecedented in the realm of traditional pianos. Notably, the sustain of notes on an ACOUHYB piano is perceived to last 20–25% longer. This extended resonance, supported by the lowest-tuned fourth string, enriches the harmonic background and deepens the emotional impact of the music. More and more professional musicians are discovering ACOUHYB. Composers are now writing specifically for this instrument, inspired by its complex harmonic textures and new sonic possibilities. The richness of the sound confirms to us that this innovation has a promising future. We are preparing to further explore the unique characteristics of ACOUHYB’s first register — which, during performances, is tuned according to standard piano conventions. As we’ve already noted: “The first timbre of ACOUHYB, even under standard tuning, produces a distinct and compelling background texture — but I didn’t expect it to become so vivid in the real ACOUHYB with four strings per note.” — S.G. Playing ACOUHYB feels as though you’re performing with built-in accompaniment. The overtones surround the player, creating a sensation that’s difficult to describe — akin to dipping your hand first into water, then into jelly: a subtle, immersive difference. The increased presence of harmonic resonance draws you deeper into the musical experience. It makes you want to keep playing. There’s a particular aesthetic pleasure that comes only from performing on an ACOUHYB piano — something that must be experienced firsthand to fully understand. We believe the ACOUHYB system represents the next evolution in the piano world. It appeals not only to musicians but also to anyone seeking a fresh, emotionally rich sound. This new generation of acoustic pianos deserves the support of top-tier manufacturers. Quality is essential — in sound, craftsmanship, and performance. One of our current goals is to develop a 3-meter concert grand featuring the ACOUHYB system, to ensure the lower register has the depth and power this system requires. About the ACOUHYB Switch. When the first ACOUHYB was introduced to the public, its voice captivated every pianist who touched its keys. Equally important is the ACOUHYB Switch — a dual-mode system that allows the pianist to toggle between “Classic” and “Acouhyb” settings, offering the versatility of both traditional and hybrid sound worlds in a single instrument.
