![]() ![]() With VST3 – you can add the effect as an insert on a synth plugin and then add your voice as a side-chained input. The TalkBox is superb – one of the best vocoders out there. If things start vibrating in frequency and resonating on a large jet – all sorts of bad stuff can happen! lolĪnyway – somebody compiled his MDA pack (50+ plugins) as VST3 plug-ins. He needed to learn acoustic because of the resonance on commercial airliners. Paul Kellet is one of my favourite developers. My “Go To” composing piano about 10 years ago – which is still one of the best sounding electric piano VST instruments – is the MDA ePiano. These big libraries suck most of the time. ![]() Strings, brass, synths, pianos, great drums, clean and pure sounding! I had a Korg X5 module which had loads of great sounds…including big combination sounds….and the whole ROM set was about 6 megs! My favourite guitar sound – for pure playability – is the Hypersonic Nylon which is small in size. It just sounds so clean, wide and free somehow! Well -> the reverb is pristine (Lexicon VST) and the FreeG (an excellent freebie) lets me crank up the dry volume without effecting the reverb level (I control that with another fader). Need to re-connect the power inside somehow…. It sounds great – I’ll get an MP3 example together…I just pulled the wire out of my Axiom which is now fluxed up. The audio goes to two other plugins (Parallel) Sonik Synth 2 -> The One 152mb (a great piano sound) “Check out our new Guitar Chord Player which plays a staggering selection of 3 different chord types!” Idiots! lol Replyīut to my ears – the best sounding Piano I have come across is something I saved a while back in EnergyXT 1.41 Somebody posted a request for Chord Recognition on KvR and the response from the developer (ConcreteFX) was – “It’s not on our list of priorities!” I mean – if they got the chords right – the product would be spectacular because it does sound great! Major / Minor on some patches….Minor 7th on others…and that is as far as it goes! It has a great sound – but the chords are lousy. I checked out RG – Rob Papen’s Rhythm Guitar “synth” the other day. The best way is to try it before you buy it. But on the other hand – it is not as incredibly amazing as the product page suggests over on the NI website!Ĭan you afford it? Does it sound good in your music? The problem is that the market is saturated with piano libraries.Īlso – the marketing blurb is always telling us that the latest product is the best thing since sliced bread.įirstly – it’s Native Instruments – so it is not going to be rubbish. This piano is not as impressive as the marketing would have you believe! Alicia’s Keys got a good rating because it was done by Scarbee – a real labour of love. The library is okay…but it just seems to me that everybody here loves everything! ![]() Leave me a comment below, let me know what you think It’s just a nice and creative library that is worth checking out if you want something a little different.ĭefinitely head over and checkout the demos and info on the NI site: It runs in Kontakt 5 Player which means anyone can use it since you don’t need to have the full version of Kontakt. I give The Giant 4 out of 5 subs, it has a great sound with plenty of control for those of us that like to tweak things. The amount of control you get is really cool but the cinematic portion of the library really makes it two instruments in one. This is a nice library with a lot to offer even if you have other piano libraries. Overall I really dig the sound quality of the instrument. Plus it’s just plain fun to experiment with. The “dark” cinematic version is really cool as it throws in a second convolution engine for tweaking and effecting the sound even more. The included convolution engine and samples really allow you to create some unique instruments. Having control over the noises and overtones is a plus as well. I love that I can change it from bright/crisp to more of a mellow and soft tone with a quick turn of the colour knob. However I love that you can really get in and change the sound and dynamics of it. I dig the basic tonality of the piano, it has a really clean and smooth feel to it. They also did a “dark” version which is made for more experimental and sound design/sfx work. The regular version and the dark version both have their own preset system built right into the interface as well. The library is made for Kontakt and you get control over all aspects of the sound so it’s very versatile. It’s a sample library based off of a HUUUUUUUUUUUGE upright piano called the Klavins Piano Model 370i Today I’m checking out a new piano from Native Instruments called “The Giant”. Hope all is well with ya, things have been super busy around here, lots of changes…but I’m still on the case finding cool instruments to show you. ![]()
