Skybox Audio announces Hammers + Waves Modern Keyboard Collection

Hi Allen,

Thanks for the kind words. We appreciate it. We are working on the smaller bundles release with NI now. Truthfully it looks like it will be Q1 of 2022. However keep on the look out ... we will of course be announcing some year end pricing soon on the Complete bundle.

Thanks for your interest!

Amazing news! Thanks and congrats once again!
 
I bought this during the introductory sales but have only recently started playing with it. MAN, this is quite a treat! Well done @skybox Audio — one minor request, it'd be great if the scroller (displayed when you navigate for the presets) works with / reacts to the hardware input device — in my case my MacBook trackpad (instead of me having to drag the scroller). Otherwise, congrats again for such a fun product to play with! Cheers!
 
if you are a pianist you'll love this piano. It's wonderfully even and the tone is great. My one niggle with it is Middle C on the Modern Grand. There is a high frequency peak at around 7500k in the higher velocities that after a while it's all you'll hear if you are playing a middle C heavy tune lol. I just had to slip a precise EQ on it to take it out, so maybe it's just me. But the whole package is worth the money IMO.

Can't wait to see if this library goes on sale for the holidays, I've seen (and heard) so many amazing examples of what it's capable of! Just when I said I had enough piano libraries... they pull me back in!

Wasn't it on sale recently?
 
Bundle is on sale at 249$, but 4 payments advertised still US only after so many months. Sadly, a missed purchase opportunity…

I ended up picking this up. The sounds are amazing, and the playability is top-notch. The tuneability is quick and easy too. Overall really love it.

I did find one issue though. It seems...I believe its the pedal noise samples, but im not sure. But it seems sometimes in some of the samples there is a very loud "snap" sound, like a twig breaking or something. Its quite jarring, and I don't believe its supposed to be there. I think its only on one of the round robin samples, because it just randomly happens. Its definitely not the plugin crackling or anything, it is absolutely part of a sample. Anyways, figured I'd mention it.

I'm getting the noise. This is on the Grand. The patch here is Ready For It, though I don't think that matters. It just happens to be the one I was playing when I realised I could trigger the noise reliably. The notes that triggered are in the attached MIDI file. I thought at first it might be a pedal-down resonance sample but I just triggered it without but I can't isolate it to a single note - it seems to need a chord and several goes to get the round robin to roll round.

What an amazing library this is. The presets are so inspiring. I have decided to come up with a demo using acoustic, and electric.
