Summary
CHROMA personifies the ageless beauty of the piano. Painstakingly recorded from a world class Yamaha C3, it fully captures the sonic exuberance of the ideal piano sound. It is not only the perfect recreation of the acoustic properties, but also a full exploration of the instrument. From the profundity of the single note, to mallets, pads, and e-bow, able to create rich and inspiring soundscapes – CHROMA is more than a piano, it is the experience of the piano itself.
Choose Your Piano
Although CHROMA was recorded from a top-class Yamaha C3, it has been developed to shape the sound to any timbre you might need. With an adjustable velocity curve, the dynamic response can be matched to any keyboard. The sound can further be adjusted by attack, decay, delay, density, octavation, detune, sample-start, pan-randomizer and more.
Realism At Your Fingers
With fully adjustable mechanical sounds (Note On, Note Off, Pedal) and 4 freely adjustable microphone positions (A/B, X/Y, ORTF and submic), CHROMA will become the choice piano for all your high-quality orchestral needs.
Sound Design Tools
The piano was completely explored for the recording of this library. Not only were the notes played the traditional way, but was also recorded using mallets, brushes, palm mutes, e-bow and chains, all adjustable and combinable in the virtual instrument itself. A range of creative effects are also included.
