Description
CHROMA - UPRIGHT PIANO stands out, not just because of its rich history and impeccable restoration, but because of its unique character and emotional depth that set it apart.
The journey began a few years ago in a small studio, where our team initially focused on recording a grand piano. However, an unassuming upright piano in the same studio captured our attention. Though we were committed to recording the grand, the upright's distinct sound and emotional resonance left a lasting impression. We just had to record it and share it with the world!
The CHROMA – UPRIGHT PIANO isn’t just another virtual instrument; it’s a culmination of passion, serendipity, and meticulous craftsmanship.
CRAFTED FOR CINEMATIC INTIMACY
What makes CHROMA – UPRIGHT PIANO truly special? It’s a century-old gem from the small, renowned piano house, lovingly restored with new strings, felts, and mechanics. This meticulous restoration ensured it not only maintained its tune exceptionally well but also preserved its authentic, vintage character. However, we haven’t stopped there, we’ve spent hours melding our coding expertise with this acoustic gem to bring you a classic piano with a ton of modern features.
A BETTER PIANO?
Better or different? You decide when comparing it to other upright piano libraries, here’s 5 reasons the CHROMA – UPRIGHT PIANO offers compelling advantages:
Unlike other virtual upright pianos, this instrument exudes a raw, organic quality. The soundboard’s resonance adds a layer of emotion, making it perfect for intimate and expressive music.
This upright piano isn’t limited to one genre. It transitions effortlessly from delicate, introspective pieces to dynamic cinematic scores and contemporary rock and pop mixes. Its ability to blend seamlessly into various styles sets it apart.
The upright piano has been meticulously restored by a professional, ensuring that it retains its original charm while offering modern playability. This level of detail in restoration and sampling is unmatched, providing a genuine and immersive playing experience. Offering all the advantages of owning an instrument like this without many of the downsides.
The upright’s sound profile is distinctly different from a grand piano. In order to capture the mojo and character of this upright we’ve sampled 27 dynamic layers to ensure all the most authentic reproduction of this very special piano.
In a mix, grand pianos can sometimes dominate, requiring extensive EQ adjustments. In contrast, the CHROMA – UPRIGHT PIANO sits naturally in a mix, enhancing the overall sound without overpowering it. Its ability to blend quickly into various mixes makes it an invaluable tool for producers.
PRECISION RECORDING FOR SONIC DEPTH
CHROMA – UPRIGHT PIANO offers musicians and producers an authentic, versatile, and emotionally rich tool that stands out in a crowded market. It’s also the ideal companion to the CHROMA – GRAND PIANO, offering a different sound to include in your musical productions.
Whether you’re creating heartfelt, intimate music, pop or rock hits, or powerful cinematic scores, this upright piano will bring unparalleled character and mojo to your compositions.
We went beyond the ordinary, recording a range of articulations that push CHROMA – UPRIGHT PIANO beyond the traditional piano. From the soft, ethereal quality of felt notes to the resonant, harmonic richness of flageolets, and even the visceral, hands-on experience of plucked strings and bowed tones, this library provides an expansive toolkit for the adventurous composer.
Add mechanical detail and control sounds like Note On, Note Off and Pedal for an even more realistic feel.
