Why use it
What it doesA sampled concert grand - thirty zones deep, six velocity layers, stereo pair.
Reach for it whenBallads and singer-songwriter work. Anywhere the piano is the arrangement rather than a pad.
What makes it differentVelocity layers are crossfaded rather than switched, and the release samples carry the damper noise.

A sampled grand piano — a concert grand taken with a stereo pair of large-diaphragm condensers,
thirty zones deep and six velocity layers tall, with the strings ringing
in sympathy and the dampers landing where they should.
THE SAMPLES
· 30 zones at a minor third, 6 velocity layers each
· String resonance recorded separately, not synthesized
· Hammer and damper release noise on every key
· 48 voices, so the pedal can hold a whole phrase without stealing
TONE
· BRIGHTNESS lid closed to lid wide open
· DYNAMIC how hard you have to hit it
· RESONANCE how much the other strings answer
SPACE
· REVERB · AMBIENCE
· Four rooms — Studio · Concert Hall · Cathedral · Room
PEDAL
· RESONANCE what the sustain pedal opens up
· SOFT the una corda shift
PLAY
· VELOCITY CURVE soft · normal · hard
· Eight presets — Concert Grand, Studio Close, Recital Hall, Jazz Room,
Ballad, Pop Layer, Felt Mood, Cinematic
Watch the ghost beside the keys — it swells when you hit and fades with
the tail.
