HD for your Ears
Zenph® Studios is a software company that specializes in the algorithms and processes for understanding - and re-creating - precisely how musicians perform. Based in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, a team of software engineers, researchers, and professional musicians has successfully accomplished what has been dreamed for years. Thousands have thrilled to re-performances® by famed musicians staged in large halls. From the data that describe these note-perfect re-performances, we make clear, modern recordings. Great-sounding new recordings can be tailored for any acoustic, for example, for the latest in surround sound or headphone listening.
Zenph's first commercial offering is creating the data behind the music, working with the record labels to make great-sounding recordings of performances you love. Sony Masterwork's amazing new recordings of Glenn Gould's playing of his famed 1955 Goldberg Variations afresh in Toronto's Glenn Gould Studio are now available worldwide. (And we say "recordings" in plural, since the one disc contains versions from three different perspectives.) Sony's album of Art Tatum's Piano Starts Here re-performance was released in June 2008, with Rachmaninoff plays Rachmaninoff and violinst Joshua Bell's At Home with Friends released in 2009.
The work we’re doing will change every aspect of music production in the coming years. Instead of working the way Edison did in the 1800’s – dealing with sound waves recorded in the air – we can now use the power of computer engineering to replicate exactingly what musicians do as they play. Re-performances can be played and recorded again any time, on different instruments, in any venue, in front of any microphones. We’re separating musicians’ performances from their original recording medium, bringing to music the power that word processing has brought to writing.
