您新的首选钢琴库。
Golden Age Grand 唤起了人们对 1950 年代和 60 年代钢琴独奏复兴的记忆。 温暖、丰富、印象派的声音可以融入现代和古典主义风格。
Golden Age Grand 是 Native Instruments 免费 Kontakt Player 的三角钢琴虚拟乐器插件,与大多数主要 DAW(Ableton Live、Logic 和 Garage Band、ProTools、Steinberg Cubase 等)兼容。
1、高保真。 1975 年之前。
Golden Age Grand 的默认声音本身就很独特且富有特色。 精美老化三角钢琴的声音通过复古麦克风、复古前置放大器和定制复古控制台将黄金时代的声音直接带到您的指尖。
2. 到磁带。 然后放慢了速度。
TAPE 按钮加载第二组样本,这些样本被录制到 2 英寸模拟磁带上。 但我们并没有就此止步,此外我们将播放速度放慢至 27ips,让钢琴呈现出有机、自然的慢速声音。
3. 数字化。 然后拉伸。
DIGITAL 按钮可启动第三个样本集,其中样本经过数字时间拉伸,音调向下移动了小三分之一。 这将为您提供明信片钢琴的声音,但具有三角钢琴的强劲共鸣!
除了默认的 Golden Age Grand 补丁外,还有 4 类预设……
耳机 — 专为 Lofi 嘻哈、灵魂乐和 R&B 艺术家而设计。
表演 – 精心设计的音色,以匹配 60 年代和 70 年代古典钢琴家的特定表演声音。
唱片 — 灵感来自 70 年代到当今排名前 40 的流行唱片。
乐谱 – 这些补丁的创作灵感来自经典和现代电影乐谱。
3 个麦克风位置。
近距离麦克风 — Neumann U67 的一对立体声麦克风紧密放置,可提供清晰、前置的声音。
铝带麦克风 — 从演奏者的角度来看,AEA R88 立体声铝带麦克风的声音非常温暖且富有特色。
室内麦克风 — 一对老式 Neumann KM86 放置在录音室的远处,以捕捉宽屏钢琴声音。
怀旧。
本着我们最喜欢的一些模拟设备的精神,您可以按下多个按钮来获得隐藏效果,或者按下一个不起眼的小按钮来添加魔法; 我们添加了“怀旧”按钮。
“它是做什么的?” 你可能会问? 好吧……我们只能说它让钢琴进一步进入遐想。 试试看! 我们认为您会喜欢它。
一架有故事的钢琴。
我们为黄金时代三角钢琴采样的雅马哈三角钢琴有着与纳什维尔音乐场景本身一样丰富的历史。 在正式成为约翰尼·卡什电视节目的一部分之前,它在传奇的大奥普里度过了数年。 雷·查尔斯 (Ray Charles)、尼尔·杨 (Neil Young) 和无数其他人在现场表演中使用了它。
Your new go-to piano library.
Golden Age Grand evokes the memory of the solo piano renaissance of the 1950’s and 60’s. Warm, rich, and impressionistic, the sound can be contextualized in both modernity and classicism.
Golden Age Grand is a grand piano virtual instrument plug-in for Native Instruments’ free Kontakt Player, compatible with most major DAWs (Ableton Live, Logic and Garage Band, ProTools, Steinberg Cubase and much more.).
1. High-fidelity. Pre-1975.
The default sound of the Golden Age Grand is unique and characterful in and of itself. The sound of the beautifully aged grand piano through vintage microphones, vintage pre-amps, and a custom vintage console bring the sound of the golden age directly to your fingertips.
2. To Tape. Then Slowed.
The TAPE button loads a second set of samples which were recorded to 2” analog tape. But we didn’t stop there, in addition we slowed the played back to 27ips giving the piano an organic and natural slowed sound.
3. To Digital. Then Stretched.
The DIGITAL button engages a third sample set, where the samples have been digitally time-streteched and pitch shifted down a minor third. This will give you the sound of Postcard Piano but with the robust resonance of a grand piano!
In addition to the default Golden Age Grand patch, there are 4 categories of presets…
Headphones — Designed with the lofi hip-hop, soul, and r&b artist in mind.
Performances — Meticulously designed patches to match the sound of specific performances from classical pianists in the 60’s and 70’s.
Recordings — Inspired by pop records from the 70’s to today’s top 40.
Scores — These patches were created with taste inspired by both classic and modern film scores.
3 Mic Positions.
Close Mics — A stereo pair of Neumann U67’s placed intimately close to give a clear and upfront sound.
Ribbon Mics — Positioned at the player’s perspective, the sound of the AEA R88 stereo ribbon mic has a very warm and characterful sound.
Room Mics — A vintage pair of Neumann KM86’s were placed at a distance in the studio to capture a widescreen sound of the piano.
Engage Nostalgia.
In the spirit of some of our favorite analog gear where you might press multiple buttons to get an hidden effect, or a small nondescript button to add magic; we’ve included the Nostalgia button.
“What’s it do?” you may ask? Well… let’s just say it takes the piano further into reverie. Try it out! We think you’ll like it.
A storied piano.
The Yamaha grand piano that we sampled for the Golden Age Grand has a history as rich as the Nashville music scene itself. It spent years at the legendary Grand Ole Opry before officially becoming a part of the Johnny Cash TV show. It was used in live performances by Ray Charles, Neil Young, and countless others.
