Sunroom Upright Piano

OSHiE | 29 November 2023 | 1.68 GB

Sunroom Upright Piano features the mysterious Conn piano with tones that are rich and full, with warm resonance, powerful low end and a woody, even quality. We’ve also included a huge selection of uniquely designed FX presets to give you robust creative tools. Sunroom Upright Piano encapsulates the cozy feeling of being home alone, relaxed and playing old ivory keys next to a warm window. Conn pianos have a tagline: “the piano that few know about”, which summarizes the curiosity and mystery of each handmade instrument. The resulting tones are rich and full, with warm resonance, powerful low end and a woody, even quality. Weighing in around 500 lbs, this 1980s piano has a responsive action and balanced timbre, perfect for soundtrack scoring, songwriting, or just noodling new ideas. In addition to deep-sampling 52 keys with 5 velocity layers in close stereo, we captured a number of other SFX like lid open/closes, key & pedal noise, and wooden creaks.

Granny Piano REASON REFiLL

Team SYNTHiC4TE | Feb 25 2014 | 164 MB

Welcome to the Reason ReFill Edition of our classic Ol’ Busted Granny Upright Piano! This instrument is pretty special to us, though it doesn’t sound all that fancy. Actually, it sounds pretty damn rough around the edges, but that’s just the way we like her. Sure, there are plenty of other great piano libraries out there, with their gleaming chrome and pristine strings, but none of them ever captured the authentic beauty of a cheap, dusty, beat up, rusting, long untuned upright piano. This is the kind of old heap your grandma had in her living room.

Nordic Upright Piano v2

Team: KRock | October 19 2012 | 483.58 MB

FORMAT: EXS24 / HALiON / KONTAKT / SF2 / SFZ

The piano we have chosen for this SampleSet is the Futura II, made by Nordiska Pianofabriken (Vetlanda, Sweden, in 1974). The complete SampleSet contains 713 individual 24 bit Mono WAV samples. The goal behind the Nordic Upright Piano is to capture the ring and dynamics of a good essential Swedish piano. This is a sampled piano that gives you freedom to place it in any ambient environment of your choice. The instrument was sampled in mono and the position of the close positioned microphone was changed per each octave. Then the piano was “re-built” in the digital domain by giving each string it’s own position in the stereo field. The result is a dry piano that gives you the flexibility to place it in any sonic environment you like.

Upright Piano v1.3.0 LiTE

P2P | 31 Oct 2020 | 261.35 MB

This is a light version of the Upright Piano library. This instrument is based on a Steingraeber 130. It originally appeared in the Akoustik Piano software. Despite its age, I think it’s still quite useful as a lightweight upright piano library. The samples in the original release were in 24-bit 44.1kHz WAV format. The samples were converted to 16-bit files. A null test with the original samples results in a peak of -87dB, which won’t be audible by any means! The samples were converted to KONTAKT’s proprietary NCW format, and then packed into NKX containers for convenience. The result is a reduction in size of around 82%, and space savings of 2.1GB!

THE CLASSIC BLUTHNER UPRIGHT PIANO & BRAND NEW HYBRID SOUNDS

ALT PIANO v1.0 KONTAKT

Flare | 02 September 2020 | 2.10 GB

ALT PIANO is the complete and unabridged big sister to our infamous Upright Felt Piano. We recorded an old, humble and character-filled upright piano from the 60s, with and without felt making this a piano with two very different characters. Soft and beautiful or bright and lively, or blend between the recordings to achieve a tone unlike anything else. We also re-recorded the piano samples in three distinctly different and unique ways to create a series of textural sound layers, which can be mixed with the natural piano or used on their own. With dozens of other unique and interesting controls, you can create a very diverse range of sounds all from just one instrument.
