Grand Upright Sampling Issue?

Post by jimmyjames »

Using the Grand Upright sample in my NE4 (which I think generally sounds great BTW). When I apply a strong and quick attack on the low B flat, B and C, the key release sound is a half step up from the original note. It appears to be just for these three notes and this piano sample (I haven't tried them all). Has anyone else experienced this?

Grand Upright Sampling Issue?

I also use the grand upright large on a NE4, but I cannot reproduce the error you describe. Maybe I'm not doing it right? I've tried both Bb0, B0, C1 and Bb1, B1, C2, playing really hard short notes (staccato), but everything sounds fine to me.

Edit: According to Nord sound manager, I have version 5.4 of the sample. Maybe you have a different one?

Interesting...I have 5.3....perhaps that's the problem. Didn't know there was a 5.4...I will download it. Does Clavia post anywhere when they issue revisions to existing library sounds? Thanks for checking it out!

Update: Upgrading to 5.4 cured the problem! Perhaps that's why there is a version 5.4 for this sample and no others? Ah...the secrets that lurk in Stockholm...

Cool ;) Solved.
I'm using version 5.4 too on NE4D, 71.1Mo (Large version) and everything sounds fine.

I too had the problem, and solved it by substituting ver. 5.3 with 5.4.

thank you all for noticing the problem and the solution!
