Topic: A set of brief close-up piano recordings for reference
I hope that I can post these links. They are to a commercial site selling a CD. Please delete if I'm off base. (I'm not associated with the site, etc...)
The music is often not my cup of tea--most people would not describe me as religious--but these recordings of a Yamaha DC-6 may be of interest as reference files as we explore what we can do. They pick up a lot of nice resonances. The mic positions seem to change from recording to recording, although the mics are always fairly close.
Here's one sound I particularly like:

(I like it partly because I like the sound of that Ab in the repeated line.)
Here's the list of brief bits of recordings:

There are also photos of the studio and mics at http://www.keithmartinson.com/recordingstudio/
Have to admit that I'd never heard of a Yamaha DC-6 before.
