Waldorf Zarenbourg - Manual (Page 5)

One element that often adorns most
electronic keyboards nowadays is the
digital display or LCD. But with Zaren-
bourg, we deliberately decided to omit
it. An LCD demands so much attention
that it often steals the show. We think
you should instead stay focused on
playing music. Moreover, we also con-
sider the LCD to be a aesthetic catast-
rophe. So instead, we made the so-
phisticated Zarenbourg architecture
easily accessible by extracting some
concepts not only from musical instru- ments, but also from analog electric
devices like car radios and tape recor-
ders that are surprisingly easy to navi-
gate without a display. And of course
with its sounds, Zarenbourg recreates
archetypal keyboards with an empha-
sis on classic, vintage electro-mecha-
nical instruments of the last century.
The fact that the underlying technology
is anything but vintage should not con-
cern you while playing your Zaren-
bourg piano. You play the music, we’ll
handle the rest. Since you made it through this preface,
you can now receive our promised
reward:
