Old Broken Piano

Old Broken Piano is an inspiring set of highly malleable raw sounds, designed fx and Kontakt instruments and multis all in 24/96 HD resolution which are incredibly useful as building blocks for the creation of textures, atonal-abstract, semi-musical and fantasy sound design for horror, trailer and soundtrack.

For Old Broken Piano we have recorded an old piano manufactured in the 1940s by the brothers Manegold. It has not been maintained and tuned for decades, giving it a unique, dark and nostalgic sound character.

The instrument was recorded with a Sennheiser MKH 8040 Stereo Pair connected to a Sound Devices 702T.

It was performed using a violin bow, various mallets and sticks, kitchen utensils, sticky tape and bare hands. The casing of the piano was partly taken apart to get direct access to the strings and the interior components of the instrument:
