You'll need plenty of space available in your hard disk (less than with Truepianos and Pianoteq but more than with several giga sample banks) and the sound is pretty decent. (Originally written by Ehma2Retour/translated from Audiofanzine FR) In the end I agree with the previous opinion by giving the same note and agreeing at the price it costs this app is a real business that can give more satisfaction than a digital piano. It also has the good taste not to produce sound when you pushed a button slowly, like on a real acoustic piano (something do not do the Garritan Steinway, which is still a reference for my piano recording.) While the sound may be worse than the other three, perhaps less "end".īut it gives the fingers feel like dealing with a piano, especially in the media who are really poor parents of the numerical simulation. I can also compare it to the Garritan Steinway is superior in sound quality, very playable but can seem a bit "soft" live.īy Pianissimo against satisfies me for the feeling of realism it gives me. The setting options are excellent but in the end my ears can not find the sound credible. When I try I find the True Piano sound pretty good but I closer to the sound of a digital piano as an acoustic piano. Not that the previous opinion is wrong but it shows that we all have a very different perception of piano sounds and digital software.įor my part Pianissimo is the best compromise realism / playability of other apps mentioned by Ehma namely Pianoteq piano and True. I post a review Pianissimo because it is contrary to previous opinion. Pianissimo virtual piano is a must have more anyone putting together a virtual suite of instruments. It's definitely worth it if you're going to be using a virtual piano a lot, as in my opinion you're getting the closest thing to a real piano in the digital world. The price is definitely reasonable, as it isn't too expensive but also isn't dirt cheap. However, this isn't always something that is possible, so when it's not Ivory would definitely be my first choice for a virtual piano. I'm usually not opposed to using this on recordings of all types, but in general I do like to use a real piano when possible. It's definitely the most realistic sounding virtual piano that I've heard, as I really can't think of another that I like more. Beyond the control, which would is too in depth to go into detail here, the sounds are some of the best that I've heard when it comes to digital piano modeling. The amount of control over the different pianos is really outstanding, as you have absolute complete control over what you're end result is. For example, there are piano sounds modeled after Yamaha, Steinway, and many other famous piano brands. The interface of the software offers up a whole lot of control over your sound, with a ton of different preset starting points that model all sorts of different acoustic pianos. Since I don't own this software myself, I wasn't involved with the installation process and can't really speak about it. I've used it both as standalone software and in Logic, but I don't own this software on my home system. It is available in AU, VST, or RTAS formats as a plug-in. The latest version (2021) enhances this approach.Acoustica Pianissimo is virtual piano software that can be used as a standalone piece of software or as a plug-in in your DAW. The audio rendition of this composite piece or suite (as opposed to a live performance) has moved from the use of Pianissimo through Pianoteq to Garritan's excellent CFX Concert Grand emulation in order to approach real time performance as closely as possible. Each sequence has a title that attempts to present the whole work chronologically as a farandole through a wooded area. The later version (2014) is a complete overhaul with extensive editing and note nudging (comprising some minor additions and corrections) plus an effort to stitch together more closely the 15 or so necessarily contrasting sequences and change of moods. The seams remain apparent, but can be viewed as characteristic of the piece. The first complete revised version (2012) assembles disparate thoughts (juvenilia) jotted down in the early sixties.
