OUR MISSION
With our resonance podiums we want to support the musicians to show their full sound variety of their instruments. We are happy when the musicians and the audience experience the physical and emotional sensation of playing live music!
OUR HISTORY
As principal double bass player of the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, Matthias Beltinger was familiar with the problem: Conventional orchestra podiums serve as risers, but do not improve the sound. Since there was no podium with a sound concept on the market, Matthias found Bernhard Prösler, a design carpenter, who has worked on Hifi sound boxes for a long time. With him together they experimented with different wood, sizes and shapes for a podium, until they were able to develop a resonance podium with a clear sound concept behind. Now the idea of Resonanzio podiums was born. They are the result of curiosity, a willingness to experiment, and patience. Our current products are based on a two-year development phase and more than ten years of application experience.

That was a great experience, I haven't enjoyed playing that much at the Barbican for years. My bass felt so free and resonant, all of the wolf notes disappeared. They really are fantastic risers!
Not only do we hear ourselves better, our instruments sound like they've been replaced, as if a 'new engine' had been installed.
It's absolutely fascinating how clear and transparent the bass section now sounds! What a great invention!
What a joy to be able to play on the Resonanzio podium! My harp sounds wonderfully free and transparent!
Every concert hall should have a Resonanzio soloist platform!
OUR ANSWERS
What is the difference between a Resonanzio podium and a conventional podium?
Conventional podiums merely serve as a heightening element. The Resonanzio podiums, with their carefully thought-out concept of significantly improving sound, are a highly effective acoustic module for concert halls thanks to their resonant board made of the finest tonewood.
Can we test the podiums in our concert hall?
Yes, that's possible. We have test platforms in various shapes and heights, and we can deliver them cost-effectively in sturdy transport crates via a freight company. We also offer a rental/purchase model for testing purposes. Inquire about the availability of our test platforms
Do the resonance podiums also work for a cello section in an orchestra?
With the flexible height of the resonance platforms, cellists don't sit significantly higher than the other musicians in the orchestra. The Classic resonance platforms are now used by cello sections in many symphony and chamber orchestras around the world.
Prices?
For information about the prices for the Resonanzio product please contact us. We send you the price list.
Are the resonance podiums also suitable for churches?
Yes, the resonance platforms are very well suited for large, reverberant spaces such as churches. The sound of bass instruments, viols, wind instruments, and even harpsichords or chest organs is perceived in a focused and much more articulate manner.
Are the podiums available in different shapes and colors?
Yes, we offer various standard sizes, and any height from 12 cm upwards can be produced. Upon request, the pedestals can be manufactured in a shape different from the standard models. We also offer the pedestals in black.
