Topic: New release using Pianoteq
Greeting, all.
Forgive me for the blatant plug, but we have a new release
"Shannon Avenue", available at CDBaby, iTunes, etc., and
also at our website, www.minimumblue.com, which we're
very proud of -- especially because all of the piano across
the entire CD was done with Pianoteq.
In working on this release, we tried quite a few different piano
implementations, from NI's Akoustik to Reason Pianos, to B&W,
and on. None of them came close to Pianoteq, and it was really
a pleasure to work with throughout the production of this release.
One of the things that I truly loved about Pianoteq is it's versatility
and ease with which we were able to get it clearly into a mix -- we
were able to use it in a wide variety of treatments without it stamping
our material with a particular "sound" (a problem that we had with NI's
Akoustik -- it always *sounded* like Akoustik).
Take a listen to "Awkward Jazz" on this release (all songs off of the
release are available to stream fully at the website in my signature
below) -- it's the most piano-heavy selection, and is an example of
how we were able to use Pianoteq to good effect (*we* think, at least).
Anyway, forgive me for plugging the release here, but I felt that perhaps
other Pianoteq users would find something of interest in the release from
a technical point of view.
Best to all --
