Guess the Piano sample! (hopefully ongoing thread!)

Post by themixtape »

Heyyy! I'm obsessed with knowing which specific piano sample is used in performances. Can anyone guess these three?



And



ruled out of the second video (recorded September 2013 according to KEXP): Silver, Velvet, Royal, any uprights after Queen

and this lovely thing by Julien Baker:

Guess I'll go first! Possibly the Imperial, SG2 or Lady D (in the second video)... it's hard to tell but such wonderful sound. Thoughts?

hard to say! But this kind of sound can be easily obtained with the ivory piano (steinway D) all my songs on music screen used this sample library..

Hmm.... that sounds a lot like the Royal.... I stand corrected. That's from 2014. Hmm.... SG2?

I think the Great Big World one is the Imperial. The way it digs in on some chords sounds awfully like it but not 100%

The Imperial is much loved... I wouldn't be surprised if it were that... I still hear the SG2 though... I dunno, it's the piano I always tend to think is what they're using.... either that or possibly the Italian Grand.
