Recorded in a world-class studio with premium-level instruments and equipment, the Emotional Piano boasts best-in-class audio. Sampled at 24-bit, 48kHz resolution, the audio fidelity is crystal clear across every sample taken. Included in the 1,700+ samples are the real noises and quirks you will find when performing an acoustic instrument. Maintaining these inaccuracies adds to the authenticity, cementing the true realism that Emotional Piano is capable of.
The stunning audio fidelity is matched with a versatile range of tonal parameters to adjust your tone to perfectly fit your mix. Complex processes have been simplified down to a distilled range of settings including tone, body, attack, release, tightness and vibrate. All contributing to the overall timbre of your Emotional Piano instrument, you can add attack and tightness to cut through heavy mixes filled with orchestral elements, or soften the sound with a long envelope for solo performances.
Employing a modular FX rack, you can customise your tone to fit a wide variety of requirements with Emotional Piano. Ideal for sound designers, the modular design of the FX rack allows you to re-order the effects in any way to get the sound you want. Experimenting with placement can result in some unique tones that set your instrument apart from the rest and with the huge range of effects included, the only creative boundary is the one you place on yourself. Everything from two-band EQ, flanger, vintage tape saturation, reverb, delays, filters and much more are included with automatable parameters for each effect, enabling dynamic movement with your track for a more expressive sound.
Built specifically for the full Kontakt sampler engine, Emotional Piano is also compatible with the free Kontakt Player (version 5.5.2 or above) in VST, AU and AAX plug-in format in your DAW. No additional purchase is required to get up and running with your virtual instrument. Additionally compatible with all Komplete Kontrol and S-Series Keyboard controllers, you can load your instrument and perform in a variety of different ways from hands-on performance on a keyboard to MIDI in your DAW.
