Production Grand Compact

Production Grand Compact is a piano sample library for the free Plogue sforzando sampled from a Yamaha C7 grand piano in a large format recording studio. Production Grand Compact contains samples from the larger Production Grand 2 without the need for the expensive Kontakt sampler.

Production Grand Compact takes a single microphone perspective from Production Grand 2 and places it in the Plogue sforzando player for a compact, fast-loading virtual instrument piano.

Production Grand Compact is ideal for Album Production, Live Stage Production, Film Score Production, Performance and more.
