Who is the Soundiron Granny Piano for?
Soundiron Granny Piano Core Sampling Technology
- Authentic Worn Piano Sampling: Captures an upright piano full of the traces of time, including its creaking keys, rusted strings, and unique detuned timbre, bringing irreplaceable authenticity and storytelling to music.
- Multiple Velocity Layers & Round-Robin: Each key was recorded with 3-4 velocity layers, with additional Round-Robin variations in the middle two octaves to ensure dynamic and natural playability, avoiding the "machine gun" effect.
- Independent Release Trigger Samples: Two independent release samples are provided for each note: "String Release" and "Key Release". The former is the sound of the strings ceasing to resonate, while the latter is the subtle "clunk" sound made by the wooden mechanical structure when a key is lifted, maximizing realism.
- Includes Full 88 Keys: The sound source fully captures the sounds of all 88 keys, even including keys that were already damaged or broken on the original piano, offering more creative options.
- Diverse Timbre Presets: In addition to standard tuned and untuned versions, it also includes pedal noises, special effect timbres, and 20 unique ambient sound pads created from the original piano sound material, expanding the sound source's application range.
