This product is mostly intended for film, TV, and game composers who want to add one-of-a-kind elements to their compositions.Gypsy's nylon string guitar, violin, and trombone can all be played in both gypsy and classical styles. In the classical realm, these three instruments are unparalleled in the sampling world in terms of playability, diversity, and sound quality.The violin and trombone feature many articulations, repetitions and even true legato intervals. All of the guitars were sampled with up and down strokes, many velocities and picking styles, release trails, chords and effects.Gypsy's guitars sound incredible and were played by one of the best session guitarists in Los Angeles, David Kole. The accordions feature many different setups, all with air flow in and out samples as well as expressive samples, chords, and left hand bass. Gypsy also has a very cool gypsy percussion program and two flamenco dancers' foot stomps as well as traditional castanets. There's also an incredible Bandoneon accordion and Cimbalom (hammered dulcimer)—two very rare instruments.PLAY Powered by EastWest's PLAY 64-bit (and 32-bit) Advanced Sample Engine with built-in Network Control (plug-in or standalone), this virtual instrument combines intuitive handling with excellent sound quality, and functions as a plug-in instrument, without the need for a sampler.

The Vienna Imperial virtual grand piano features the sound of the venerable Bösendorfer Imperial 290-755 that the Vienna team hosted at the Silent Stage for two months. It was equipped with the famed piano manufacturer's CEUS technology, which allowed for precise and extensive piano sample recordings. The 1,200 recorded samples per key represent a large magnitude of sampling detail.The innovative implementation of meticulously recorded pedal-up and pedal-down notes in up to 100 velocities, comprehensive sympathetic resonances, and multiple release samples help make the Vienna Imperial virtual instruments one of the most realistic sampled pianos ever created.No less importantly, the Vienna Imperial is easy to use. The Basic View of the user interface lets you choose between three recording positions (close, player, and audience). The Advanced View gives you quick-and-easy access to more control options such as convolution reverb, EQ, pedal noises, sympathetic resonances, stereo width, MIDI sensitivity, and more. But don't get fooled by the slick interface—lunder the hood is a proprietary piano engine that has been specifically designed to drive this massive amount of sample data and processing power.The Vienna Imperial Collection is not divided into Standard and Extended Sample Libraries like other Vienna Instruments Collections. The Standard package includes the full set of samples along with the software instrument/engine. The Library contains 500GB of uncompressed sample data in 44.1kHz/24-bit. Due to a specifically developed optimization process, the Vienna Imperial engine decompresses the samples in real time, so that they take up only 50GB of space on your hard disk.Product Details The CEUS computer grand is capable of recording even the most subtle key movements and positions using microprocessors and highly sensitive optical sensors. It plays those recorded notes absolutely identically using solenoids installed under every key. Far exceeding the limits of any other system, the CEUS measures the velocity of the hammer on its way to the string just before striking it (a distance of just 0.15") with an accuracy of 0.0001 milliseconds, and even records and exactly reproduces the key movements after every strike.Velocities The CEUS technology made it possible to exploit the velocity range of the MIDI protocol to an unprecedented degree. Up to 100 velocities were recorded per key and playing technique, i.e., with and without pressing the sustain pedal, and alternatively with the soft pedal down. There are simply no audible steps between the singular velocity layers, and every single key has its own authentic velocity curve. These precise recording techniques would have been impossible without Bösendorfer's CEUS technology. No human pianist, no matter how skilled, would be able to play 100 evenly spaced velocities from pianissimo to fortissimo, not to mention playing them consistently across all playing techniques

MODARTT created the long-awaited and much-improved version 3 of PIANOTEQ Virtual Instrument Software after 2 years of intensive research into acoustic models, electro-acoustic models, and advanced algorithms. New acoustic model One of the most exciting features in PIANOTEQ version 3 is the new acoustic model which simulates the sound radiation of the soundboard and the piano's cabinet. Developed in close cooperation with demanding musicians, it brings stunning realism, clarity, and brilliance to your performance. This new acoustic model allows you to place up to 5 virtual microphones anywhere around the piano in an additional illustrative interface. A mixer is available for combining the mics into 5 output channels, with the possibility to adjust level and delay separately.PIANOTEQ 3 offers full control of the sound source and unlimited possibilities to choose the color of the piano sound, similar to what professional audio engineers do when recording. The resulting experience is simply an amazing audio immersion. In binaural mode, for headphone usage, a head model is used for simulating the sound heard by a person located where the head is placed in the interface. The head can be rotated in any direction and even its size can be changed.New-to-the-series grand pianos Thanks to MODARTT's research, they were able to build two beautiful new instruments, each with its own personality. The Grand C3 has a warm and colored sound, suitable for classical, romantic, or lyrical music. The Grand M3 has an attack and presence that will better suit jazz and rock music. Different perspectives are provided with each instrument: player, recording (4 mics in the C3 solo recording), close mic, binaural, etc. These are only a few of the many perspectives that you can create yourself by choosing your own recording settings: mics placement and mixing. Thus, any musician or producer should find the piano sound they need.The virtual piano factory When building those two instruments, MODARTT took their inspiration from the very best acoustic pianos in the world. They can be used right out of the box. They can also serve as starting points for creating new instruments, entering the virtual world of the fourth piano generation. PIANOTEQ 3 opens new soundscapes that enriches the resources of all musicians and composers, from amateurs to professionals. For example, you can play a piano equipped with a virtual carbon fiber soundboard.New models for other keyboard instruments With PIANOTEQ 3, a broad family of keyboard instruments is now available, including historical harpsichords and pianoforte, contemporary grand pianos, electro-acoustic pianos, vibraphones, and more. The different models even share some features. For example, the electro-acoustic pianos have a sostenuto pedal and the acoustic pianos can use the tremolo effect or the limiter. More surprising, you can change the sound speed in the air that is used by the model.Free add-ons MODARTT also has a collect
