■ SV250/255 Features
The SV250/SV255 Silent Violin™ is a high quality electric violin designed for
stage and studio use.
Based on the same slim body design found in previous Silent Violins™,
the SV250/255 incorporates a unique hollow structure in its body to deliver
enhanced acoustic tone and excellent playability.
The SV250/255 features a dual pickup design using one piezo-electric
pickup located underneath the bridge to reproduce the rich acoustic tone
produced by the overall instrument, and another newly developed piezo-
electric pickup built into the bridge to accurately reproduce subtle bowing
nuances. Output from the two pickups can be blended freely to create a wide
range of tone. The instrument's electronics are housed in a sturdy aluminum
control box that can be placed on the floor or attached to the player's
apparel with its integral belt clip. The unit supplies the violin's preamp with
its needed electric power and incorporates an equalizer for shaping the tone
of the instrument's audio signal. It also includes a headphone monitor amp
with independently adjustable volume and the unit can be powered from any
one of three power sources; two AA batteries, a power adaptor, or phantom
power.
In addition to a regular monaural line out, an XLR balanced output provides
a noise resistant balanced output signal for sending the instrument's output
directly to a mixing console. The two outputs let you easily connect to an
effector/amp system and mixing console at the same time, or connect to a
DAW via an audio interface for recording.
Crafted with high quality woods, quality construction and finish, plus
electronics designed specifi cally for the violin and diverse output options,
the SV250/255 goes beyond being a great instrument for practice to being
an instrument perfect for stage and recording use with its exceptional tone
quality and playability.
Congratulations!
