I have several of the major acoustic pianos for IOS. The other shortcoming of iGrand is a 64 note polyphony limitation. But with careful blending of some reverb that can help, somewhat, in that area. Being some of the early releases of sampled pianos for IOS, they lack sympathetic resonance. I seriously feel I get a more satisfying result with several pianos from iGrand and SampleTank. The main thing this has going for it is sympathetic resonance. However, it still lacks a realistic hammer attack in the sound. I am now more satisfied with the resulting sound. It allows the full spectrum of the Ravenscroft 275 to come through. I replaced the Keystation 88 with the Nektar LX88+ which does have internal adjustment of velocity. That was totally dependent on the software. And this keyboard had no internal way to adjust the velocity sensitivity. Well, my M-Audio Keystation 88 began to have problems with a few keys loosing their velocity. And no matter how I adjusted the two Velocity parameters in the App I was disappointed. When I played with greater velocity it never seemed to deliver the percussive, brighter hammer action sound I felt it should have. When I first purchased Ravenscroft 275 I was quite disappointed with the sound.

As the tuning work is important, we took the best qualified person for that essential part of the process.ĭuring the recording we always used the very best sounding quality gear. Then we booked for several days some of the best recording studios in Europe, for example for the Steinway. After some research and like dozens of piano reviewed, we found the amazing sounding models that all our consultants loved. Then we solicited two different classical and jazz pianists, both outstanding concert performers, to give us a hand finding the ideal one. Grand Piano Collection highlights five wonderful instruments:įor everyone of them we used the same method:įirst, we had to find the right instrument.

A good sounding piano is a rare alchemy between the instrument, the acoustic in the recording studio, the microphones and above all, the engineer's taste. True to our beliefs, we don't think it's about figures (like velocity, memory, number of microphones) but about feeling.
