P2P | 20 June 2024 | 12.79 GB

A musical journey into another century: Swiss Grand 1860

This sampled concert grand piano was crafted by the Zürich-based company Hüni & Hübert in the year 1860. Its timeless, elegant design is reflected by a beautifully full-bodied, transparent, warm tone with raunchy bass, something which is very hard to find in modern pianos. Recorded with 32 velocity layers, with eight samples per key release and damper movement, this sample library for HALion takes you on a musical journey through time. The historical Swiss Grand was an integral component of a collection curated by musicologist Andreas Beurmann (1928-2016), which has been meticulously preserved in excellent condition. It was recorded on location using a specialized signal chain, including a custom-made set of tube microphones. It was captured at 192 kHz/24 bit and resampled to 48 kHz. It’s presented for the first time as a sample library at its original tuning pitch of 437 Hz, yet offers the flexibility of pitch adjustments within the instrument.

CiN-A Shaped KONTAKT

P2P | 20 June 2023 | 1.60 GB

The CIN-A is an acoustic piano, in case it’s two, but made into one. The power and exactness from a large German Grand Piano, blended with the warmth and intimacy of an upright piano. The samples have been processed using some cool vintage outboard and even resampled using a ¼ inch analog tape machine. To add extra warmth and glue everything together. The result: A instrument that sounds like no other piano you’ve heard, that delivers a sound that we hope will inspire you as soon as you get it under your fingertips. Not much to tell, really. Load it, play it, and hopefully you will find it as fun to play, as it was to produce.

Our flagship piano – a world-class concert grand captured in stunning detail in a concert hall, with all the nuance and detail Fracture Sounds is known for. This piano will feel right at home in your template, whether as a workhorse piano for scoring and sketching, or as your go-to tool for those tender and emotive musical moments. ABOUT THE INSTRUMENT Spotlight Piano follows on from our highly regarded series of “character pianos” (Woodchester Piano, Midnight Grand, Glacier Keys). Drawing upon our countless hours of experience sampling pianos in recent years, we set out to create the ultimate scoring piano. We returned to the same hall as Midnight Grand and Glacier Keys, and captured the same glorious Steinway D Concert Grand – this time in its pure form (without the felt, cotton or extended techniques of our previous pianos) but still retaining Fracture Sounds’ sonic signature and ease-of-use, and with even more detail and nuance than our previous pianos. Spotlight Piano was designed with delicate, emotional, cinematic scoring in mind, but with its plethora of intuitive sonic shaping and performance tweaking controls, in addition to the 21 carefully curated presets included, this concert grand will fit comfortably into a wide range of musical styles.

The Grand 3 boasts completely different piano models to its two predecessors, merely building on the prestige that its name has managed to attain over the past years. This means that versions 2 and 3, both old and new, equally deserve to be held in high esteem for their respective quality piano models. But always keep in mind: for The Grand 3, Steinberg has not only come up with several different piano models but uses intelligent sample architecture and latest recording technology to achieve an even more authentic sonic image and realistic feel.
