Sampled Grand Piano With 32 Velocity Layers
realsamples releases huge sample library of an Erard antique piano 12/02/08
|
realsamples tell us that this is probably the first piano sample library ever captured with 32 velocity layers of each note for great dynamics, feel and pure piano sound to deliver the ultimate grand piano experience in your studio. They say it is far beyond the status quo of piano sampling – offering mostly just 4-5 velocity layers – thus addressing a common problems often associated with digital sample pianos: The playing feel of only a few layers is nothing like the real deal and it is also not satisfying for both discriminating pianists and producers who strive for inartificial sounds. Furthermore, realsamples recorded the release sounds of each key in 8 variations to complete the experience of this unique instrument.
These piano samples are recorded in 192 khz/24 bits resolution, employing vintage Neumann TLM-170 microphones through Crane Song preamps and Universal Audio 2192 converters.
Presets are available for all common sample formats including HAlion, Kontakt, EXS24, Independence, MachFive, Reason NN-XT, VSampler3 and GigaStudio (16 velocity layers due to format restrictions), amongst others .
In addition to the samples, the Grand Piano library contains an essay in German from Professor Andreas E. Beurmann himself, explaining both the historical and musical background of the instrument.
