IK Multimedia SampleTank Art Deco Piano

Discover the unique and modern sound of one of the most remarkable pianos in history. The Art Deco Piano combines iconic Danish design with meticulous German construction. It's an audiophile - grade SampleTank Custom Shop instrument collection featuring over 1.5GB of content and more than 600 rich stereo samples. This is a faithful recreation of a 1930's Blüthner PH Grand Piano. Designed by Danish designer Poul Henningsen, its swooping and curvy design is truly eye - catching. Without a traditional wood cabinet, it's built with metal, leather and other materials, delivering a bright and modern sound captured by Neumann TLM - 170R condenser microphones and top - quality studio preamps. IK's engineers worked hard for months to ensure every detail of this beautiful instrument is perfectly captured. Each note is sampled at 8 velocities for easy play, and some notes are omitted for smooth transitions. It also includes a soundboard model for SampleTank's Acoustic Resonance effect. There are 10 instruments in total, like Art Deco Piano Bright, Dark, etc. It's a library for SampleTank 3 and compatible with the FREE SampleTank Custom Shop.

Using the IK Multimedia SampleTank Art Deco Piano is quite straightforward. First, make sure you have SampleTank 3 installed on your device. If you don't, you can use the FREE SampleTank Custom Shop as it's compatible. Once installed, load the library and start exploring the 10 different instrument presets available, such as the bright or dark versions of the Art Deco Piano. When playing, you'll notice that each note has been sampled at 8 velocities, which means you can play with different levels of force to get a more expressive sound. Just press the keys as you would on a regular piano. As for the soundboard model included for the Acoustic Resonance effect, you can activate it in the SampleTank software settings to add an extra layer of realism to your sound. Regarding maintenance, since this is a digital product, there's no need for physical upkeep. However, keep your software updated to ensure optimal performance and compatibility. Also, make sure your device has enough storage space to accommodate the over 1.5GB of content. If you encounter any issues, refer to the official IK Multimedia support channels for assistance.
