Product Ref: 343061
The Steinway & Sons D-274 has become one of the most recognised concert grand pianos in professional music, appearing on stages across the world thanks to its commanding sound and impressive dynamic range. This library captures a carefully selected Hamburg Model, chosen by pianist Stefan Mendl from eight instruments for its exceptional musical character. Permanently housed in the climate-controlled environment of Vienna Synchron Stage, the piano benefits from the venue's naturally warm acoustics, giving you access to the distinctive ambience of one of Europe's leading recording spaces. This is the ultimate piano instrument for orchestral arrangements, solo piano recordings, or cinematic scores, delivering a near unrivalled authentic concert grand into your studio.
Every nuance of the Synchron Concert D-274 has been captured using an advanced motion-control recording system with a precision-operated robotic finger, allowing highly consistent performances across every sampled note. More than 100 velocity layers, detailed release samples, and realistic key behaviour recreate the subtle response of the original instrument with remarkable accuracy. Over 4,000 samples were recorded for each key, alongside nearly 20,000 samples for every microphone position, delivering exceptional realism throughout the keyboard. Eleven microphone positions also let you shape the balance between direct tone and room ambience, giving you the flexibility to create everything from focused studio sounds to expansive concert hall mixes.
Included with the library, the free Vienna Synchron Pianos Software gives you comprehensive control over both sound and performance. Its streamlined interface makes it easy to adjust microphone mixes, tailor body resonance, and refine the overall character of the piano without interrupting your creative workflow. You can also filter individual key ranges or even specific notes, making it simple to adapt the instrument for different arrangements or production styles. If you want additional depth, the built-in algorithmic reverb lets you enhance the natural ambience, while the high-performance playback engine ensures responsive, expressive performance throughout every session.
"The Synchron Concert D-274 is amazingly playable and malleable: a magnificent concert grand piano fit for any application." - Ramin Djawadi - Composer (Game Of Thrones, Iron Man, Pacific Rim)
