Velocity Intensity and its importance for piano sounds
Posted: Sat Sep 30, 2017 10:40 am
Hi everyone,
It seems that so many people go back and forth about what company has the best piano samples. They talk about which sounds sound warmer but they usually neglect to discuss dynamics. The thing that makes the piano sound like a piano to me is the ability to go from very soft to very loud. It seems to me that there should be more presets with a higher velocity intensity to demonstrate how realistic the dynamics could be even on a board that is not 88 keys. This is my favorite thing to mess with on my M50 outside of common things like altering the cutoff on synth sounds or adding effects.
