What sound is this?

Hello friends, the other day watching videos of a musician, I loved the sound of electric piano you have.

How should I set it to play with my NS2?

here the link



thanks!

It sounds like a sampled grand piano to me, maybe the "Italian grand" sample would do the job? If you're not happy with that, try adding some eq and a bit of reverb.
Good luck!

I think the Upright Grand piano with treble near max ,dynamics max and some soft stage reverb would do the trick.

Although in mono some room reverb would create a sense of depth.

Also, turn the compressor way up to get it to sound as smashed as in that video.

Anologika I forgot to say that

is not an upright piano, is a fantom G, anyway got something similar with the XL italian grand.


I did not understand the comment Analogika

Switch on the compressor at upper right and turn it way up. That's what makes the piano sound so artificial on the original.

Although the extreme compression, and the massive imbalance between treble and bass, are due to being recorded on a cheap mobile phone from an amplified sound, and not what the performer would ideally want!

You may be right there.
