8dio Suitcase 54 Piano

Over 27 000 samples

Recorded and processed at 24-Bit / 96Khz at our famous British Studio through a large custom NEVE desk.

All standard sustain samples were recorded with both pedal up and pedal down positions. In addition we also added staccatissimo (w/ round robin) for fast playing styles. We also opened up the Suitcase and recorded the insides of it, including plucking the tines and gently muting them for different types of sounds.

The 8Dio Studio Vintage Series Suitcase 54 Piano also contains a large selection of presets, which shows many variations of the instrument. The Suitcase contains 8 different types of vintage microphones and 2 different types of world-class reverbs. The microphones includes Neumann 87's, Coles, Neve SE Ribbon's, AKG 414's, Neumann KM 184's and a mixed microphone position, which was made by combining all 24 microphones used in the sessions. We also recorded all samples through two world-class reverbs (Bricasti and TCElectronics 6000), so you have the best microphones and reverbs right at your finger tips.

We included full control over velocity temper resonance, room tone, non tonal key control & unique release triggers for hammer action, string damping, and release triggers for our more ambient microphones.
