Treat your sampler to one of the most celebrated pianos of Rock.
Finally, a piano that doesn't require tons of EQ, compression and effects
to be heard. This is the industry's one and only true Rock piano, with
all of the natural brightness and depth you need to speak through your
tracks. You've never heard a piano with better blending and stereo imaging.
The piano is a rare and famous vintage Steinway B, custom rebuilt and
maintained strictly for studio recording. Its contribution to Rock history
is etched in stone, having asserted its presence on multi-platinum records
from Elton John and Tom Petty to Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash.
Chromatically sampled (all 88 keys), three velocities, looped and non-looped
- you have an endless variety of patch combinations to choose from, whether
you need a few midrange tones or a take-no-prisoners, 64 Megabyte powerhouse.
The samples were recorded straight to digital on a vintage Neve console. Paul Grupp engineered the sessions using his
masterful ears and years of experience to get phase-perfect stereo mic
placement. Produced by John Boylan and Anthony Harris, their mission was
simple: Get the best two-fisted piano sound in the world and capture it
on one easy-to-use CD-ROM.
