Grand Piano

Grand Piano is a free virtual piano instrument plugin (ROMpler) featuring a sampled Yamaha C5 6'7" Grand Piano.

The original samples (Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license) were recorded by Alexander Holm [axeldenstore (at) gmail (dot) com] with two AKG c414 condenser microphones placed in an AB position at around 12 centimeters above the strings. All the samples were captured in 48kHz 24-bit audio quality.

Grand Piano features 16 velocity layers, hence the 1.19 GB size on the disk. The deep sampling provides realism and captures the authenticity of the instrument.

The interface has 4 effect modules (reverb, chorus, delay & motion/tremolo), an ADSR envelope, and volume knobs for the piano sound and keys release noises.

Grand Piano supports various plugin formats, making it compatible with popular digital audio workstations (DAWs) and music production software. With its low CPU usage and efficient performance, it ensures smooth integration into any project without compromising the overall system performance.
