A DISTINCTIVE, PURE PIANO
- Evocative tones from a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted upright piano
- Full range of distinct sound characters, from soft and resonant to percussive and textural
- Sampled in intimate detail to deliver everything from up-close realism to resonant overtones
DELICATE AND DIFFERENT
THREE SOURCES OF CREATIVITY
Draw from three separate sound banks. The first captures the pure, resonant sound produced when each piano hammer strikes a single string. The second and third capture two preparations of material between hammers and strings. Felt offers a gentle tone with reduced attack noise, creating a smooth sound akin to an unplugged vintage electric piano. Cotton delivers a noisier, percussive attack with more overtones.
ENHANCED SOUND DESIGN
Transform the sound by accessing unique noise and sound design elements. Dial up the noise from fabric preparations, mechanical elements, pedals, and the room to enhance realism or create something entirely new. Incorporate hiss, compression, and saturation from vintage outboard gear to generate anything from dry, gritty textures to liquid pads and swirling effects.
ADJUST YOUR TONE EASILY
An easy-to-use interface gives you full control of instrument parameters. Select from three distinct sound banks. Use the Workbench to sculpt the primary characteristics of the sound. Adjust the dynamic characteristics and add overtones in the Response section. Then polish your sound in the Finish section by integrating vintage effect chains, reverbs, and more. The interface allows you to easily transform a pure-sounding piano into a noisy, percussive instrument or ambient soundscape.
