Re: [disklavier] piano audio recordings

2005-06-06 by Carpe Per Diem

THE piano samples that many pros are using right now is IVORY  
<www.synthogy.com> -- Yamaha and Roland boxes are somewhat low end  
for consumers...

To play these samples back, you need a screaming fast machine, at  
least 4 gigs of ram, and a 60 gig RAID for the samples to live on.  
But once you have this, it is a wonderful set of instruments.

I find that piano performances played on my disklavier sound much  
better on ivory than from most midi controllers.

I've recorded countless pianos and part of me is sad that I've gone  
to samples -- but part of me is thrilled to be able to make killer  
recordings without re-inventing the wheel.
