Re: Rock piano models
Try the Amber Upright?
Also, experiment with EQ and compression during soundcheck. Both these tools can be a big help in loud bands, and a tiny amount of compression can make a lot of difference to how well you cut through.

Re: Rock piano models
I use more and more the Digigrand1 (from the ePiano 2 Section) in some pieces (Rock'n Roll Type and Blues), which cuts through rather aggressive.
It seems to be more outside of the general focus...

Thanks for the good advice but I have one question:
How much is "tiny" for you?
Compressor at 9 O' clock, 12, 2 O' clock?
Sincerely

Re: Rock piano models
It's going to vary based on your amplification and playing style. Start at 9, and it is easy enough to move it up if you need more.Quai34 wrote:Hi,dkernohan wrote:Try the Amber Upright?

Re: Rock piano models
Right on the money for me , too. For Pop/Rock I've been layering any piano I choose with the digigrand1 at -15db (if main piano is at max 0db) , it's just essential for the attack. It also has a sustain proper for rock music.koloman wrote: 28 Dec 2017, 22:05 I use more and more the Digigrand1 (from the ePiano 2 Section) in some pieces (Rock'n Roll Type and Blues), which cuts through rather aggressive.
