Pianoforte

Ambisonics Version

Our novel recording and mixing techniques deliver a sound library natively compatible with multi-speaker arrays. This means that no matter your speaker setup, you can dynamically adapt the sound to it and results will always translate with utmost quality. Be it Binaural (headphones), Stereo, Surround, Atmos, Ambix for VR applications, custom arrays, and even exporting to multiple channel-configurations at once, your mix will always be natural and real.

Ambisonics Version is compatible with DAWs that support multi-channel tracks.

All about Mix Perspectives

For the Ambisonics version we’ve prepared what we called ‘Mix Perspectives’, which are three-dimensional mixes that will let you feel the Piano from different listening spots.

‘RAW’ Mix:

A Raw perspective that contains all Mix Perspectives together with no processing going on, so that you can create your own sound.

‘Musician’ Perspective:

Feel right on the Pianist Bench, just as if you were playing the piano – feel the music just as the pianist would feel it.

‘Soundboard’ Perspective:

BE the Piano, feel the sound traveling all around you for every key you press. Breathe the sound.

‘Audience’ Perspective:

What if you weren’t playing but listening to your own private recital? This perspective was created to have you listen to the music just as if you were sitting in front of the piano.

‘Balanced’ Perspective:

A great way to achieve a balanced sound and at the same time feel as if you were sitting in front of the piano. This perspective offers great focus and at the same time great surround feeling for your performances.

Stereo Version

Our approach to sound also has a benefit to those who prefer to stick to Stereo. Thanks to our recording and mixing techniques, where we respect the microphone positions not only in a left to right fashion, but on a three-dimensional space, the resulting mix is a faithful representation of how sound behaves as it travels to your ears. Instead of having mic positions that layer on top of others, we offer multiple mixes that combine seamlessly with each other in total sonic harmony.

Stereo Version is compatible with every DAW available in the market.

Mixes and Mic Positions

Just like traditional libraries, aside from a ready-to-use Stereo Mix, ‘Pianoforte’ is comes in different Microphone Positions. and Mixes

‘RAW’ Mix

All Mic Positions placed together with no retouching done – this will help you create your own mixes thanks to the unprocessed sound.

‘Balanced’ Mix

We’ve prepared a load-and-play alternative for musicians who don’t want to spend any time mixing the Piano but want something ready. This Mix comes ready to be added to your music.

‘Punchy’ Mix

A mix with punchier attacks and narrower image, works perfect for Jazz.

‘Intimate’ Mix

A darker and duller mix that works perfect for having underscores or having a soft piano filling your music with static chords

‘Ears’ Mic Position

A Stereo pair of microphones placed by each of the musician’s ears.

‘Soundboard’ Mic Position

A Stereo pair of microphones to capture the sound that comes from the Soundboard. It is extremely rich in harmonics and clarity

‘Frame Mic’ Position

A Stereo pair of microphones to capture the sound that comes from the frame, because it’s closer to the action, it has more attack.
