What it is
The Prestigious Pianos Bundle is a Kontakt sample library collection featuring five historically significant grand pianos from the 1790s through 1870s, each captured with extraordinary depth - up to 32 velocity layers and 8 release variations per key. Instruments include an Erard 1873 (London), a Johann Andreas Stein 1793 (Augsburg), a Berndt 1848 (Breslau), a Huni & Hubert Swiss Grand 1860 (Zurich), and a rare Lutheal Piano from the Musical Instrument Museum Brussels. All 14,000 samples were recorded through vintage Neumann microphones, preserving the natural wooden resonance and mechanical character unique to each period instrument.
Who it's for
Film and TV composers, neo-classical and ambient producers, and arrangers who need authentic period piano character - not another pristine modern concert grand. Requires the full retail version of Kontakt (Windows and Mac compatible).
