First one https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxJY2d7J6zdvjMtcIMXz0Vv5hkfZVYEGLa Second one (starts around 10 seconds) -- REALLY LOVE THE SOUND ON THIS What are some good libraries to get these sounds?

Hello As I am awaiting for my new hammer action midi keyboard (Hammer 88 Pro), I started to search for a good piano vst. I heard a lot of praise towards Keyscape but at the same time I saw some negatives about it. So wanted to hear what would be your opinions? Is it worth buying Keyscape? Or...

Hi everyone, We’re extremely proud to announce the Missing Keys contest, a competition to score a short film using the 45-day free trial of the new Rhodes V8 and V8 Pro plugins. The winner will take ownership of a beautiful bespoke Rhodes MK8 piano, while 19 runners-up will receive full...

Keyscape is still one of my favorite pianos, you can check out me playing through it below. ILIO is also doing a giveaway for Keyscape and a Roland A-88 MKII, so you can hop in on that contest if you want the library.

Ok so this is probably a dumb question, but are there any plugins that use piano to give reverb? For example pianos have aliquot strings (extra unplucked/unstruck strings) that give it extra depth and color by vibrating alongside the other struck strings. Also, as they have such a big body...

Oh boy, totally not opening the floodgates with this one. So, since I managed to grab HOOPUS for Black Friday, I've been considering getting an alternative piano library which can play nicely with it. Currently, all I have is 8Dio's 1990 Studio Grand and, while it is pretty good, there's a...

This is the pianosketch which will be fully orchestrated in the next video. Hope you like it! Midi: https://bit.ly/3iqEZAr

Hey guys, I can't find any demos of the Imperfect Samples pianos which cover short note playing. Lots of demos on YouTube, but they're mostly pedal playing (same with imperfectsamples.com). Does somebody own one of those instruments (especially interested in the Fazioli) who could demonstrate a...

Anyone have a recommendation for a piano library with fx using a superball and/or soft mallets for a sort of low rumbling? Not necessarily looking for prepared piano with nails or clothespins, and more slow scrapes and fx. Something along the lines of what’s performed here in this video:

* thanks for the likes if apreciate if you also like on YT, to help my channel

I have done some minor sampling earlier using Logic's built-in Autosampler to make soft-synths less CPU intensive for live use, that are mostly basic synth samples that needs no mapping editing whatsoever. I'm now trying to autosample my digital piano (disregarding sympathetic resonance, release...

Hi there and thank you for stopping by, I am selling the following titles below from Native Instruments, as I have now updated to Komplete Ultimate 14 Collector's Edition from Komplete Ultimate 13 Collectors Edition which already includes the below, so am looking to sell these onto whomever...

Hi :) I'm relatively new to this, but wondering how long it takes (or it should take) to arrange a song for piano. I'm trying the one below, but it's taking me ages. I got help from Google and got the chords (mostly accurate). Then I wrote the melody down, which was a bit of a nightmare...

I am primarily playing/learning piano but I also mess around with everything else available for midi control, so I want something that can do a bit of everything. Currently I have a Nektar impact GX61 but Im looking to upgrade to 88 keys with a better action and preferable textured/not slippy...

Hi, I hope this is the right subforum :) I'm looking for a DAW. I'm new to music production. I used CakeWalk 20+ years ago to enter all notes of classical piano pieces and make it sound "good" there (weird hobby...), but apart from that, I've barely touched a DAW since. I installed Cubase and...

Hi, These are some Waltzes I recorded recently, Full set on piano: A few with orchestra: The piano vst is "Noire". The strings are Cinematic Studio Strings and Joshua Bell. I'm very fond of composing for Orchestra instruments, though I'm not of course satisfied with my recordings. Thank...

Hi there, Since the ddsp-piano model has come true, I want to start a thread here testing and discussing the ddsp-piano model and further, the machine learning approach in music synthesis. So what makes realistic piano performance synthesis through machine learning possible? Well I think...

It's been a while since the last time I accessed pianobook, but yeah :) it's still great and full of beautiful [hidden] gems. This piece for piano and strings was not designed for the two VIs finally used, but damn, it's closer to what I had in mind at the beginning than the original output...

The name of the library could NOT be any more descriptive. When I heard about it, my first initial reaction was I already have NI's Noire. Wrong! They're not even close. It really takes care of a very broad spectrum of one's musical needs. Anywhere from playing traditional piano to all kinds of...

During the investigation of the history of our very old piano made by Franz Oeser from Vienna, we dove in the mechanics (action) of the piano and found that it is partly responsible for the typical sound. We didn't know this when we decided to create a virtual instrument out of the piano. But...

Here's a new thing I wrote this week as part of a local writing group in Austin. Doesn't have a good name yet, but the current woes in eastern Europe certainly had an effect on the vibe. I recorded saxophone and electric bass parts, played the piano/EP/synth parts in via MIDI, and programmed...

Heya all, first time sharing one of my pieces here. I’m a self-taught amateur bedroom composer who’s recently started freelancing to broaden my horizons (and to make a li’l extra dough). I’ve been lurking around these forums for a while, and I figured it was time I submitted myself to VI-C’s...

Not sure if this tune is familiar to any of you, but I haven't been able to get it out of my head since elementary school choir. The song generally goes by "Have You Seen the Ghost of John?" and it's lyrics are pretty spooky, too. So, I decided to put together this arrangement for Piano, Violin...

Hi, I'm currently trying to find a new keyboard with a good action in the range of around 900€ (+- 200€) and I can honestly say that this is more confusing than my studies. Now for my question: do keyboards have a different feel even if they have the same keybed/action (whatever you call it)...

Last Thursday, we met with @Simeon to talk about 'Piano Toy', our amazing 'Advanced Pitch Shifting' tech and of course, what we love most: Samples! Might sound like a small instrument, but trust us, we took it seriously and created probably the most comprehensive 'Piano Toy' ever made! And now...

Hello. After investing in several piano VSTs I have come to the conclusion that I prefer those which provide the option of drier samples / sounds. Vienna Imperial and Pianoteq 7 Standard with reverb disabled seem to do the trick. The samples in Ivory II American Concert D, although not...

UPDATE I submitted this piece to Mike Verta's annual "Unleashed" where you can submit your pieces and get feedback on them. So I've went and tried to work on his notes and this is the result. What does everyone think? I think this one sounds a lot better. Here's the notes he gave as...

Ageing brings wisdom, the building of inner strength and the collection of beautiful memories. Like thumbing through old photographs, "I Remember" is touching and reflective. The long, soaring melody of the clarinet and the steadfast rhythm of the piano present a nostalgic performance...

Hi, I am considering buying a great piano vst library. I currently own Gentle Keys by Splash Sound. I purchased it for $58 and it has a nice dreamy tone with an optional smooth synthetic strings layer, but the dynamics are a bit small since it's sampled from an upright piano and is less than 1...

I've had an iOS app from UVI for sometime, but recently got their synths and now the Austrian Grand. It's an interesting piano. I haven't spent a whole lot of time with it but I noticed stock presets with default settings don't really do justice to the library. Once you tweak the settings a bit...

Hey, so I'm going to be moving across the pond (to EU) and won't be taking my beloved Yamaha S90ES with me. Will be looking for a great 88-key MIDI controller to buy. Obviously, the S90 had onboard sounds, which made it fun to just play when I'm not on my computer, but that is not essential...

I wrote this piece originally for clarinet and accordion, recorded as part of my duo, Acclarion's CD, "Shattered Expectations." We played it for years in concert, until one day, my wife suddenly says, "I'm not playing it with you anymore, because I'm pregnant." :) (damn, click bait bastard!)...

The other night I was tossing and turning and had this idea in my head, so I decided to record it. I'm still debating whether to keep it as a solo piano or add some strings as well to change up the colour. Also think I might have milked the ending a bit. Curious what everyone thinks.

I wonder if it is best to use two different piano libraries when mocking up a piano concerto for two pianos? Obviously I would choose a very similar sounding piano (e.h. Steinway model D). Using the same VI on the second piano track feel a bit weird (perhaps phasing, or just too much same...
