Description
Iowa Piano is a sampled Steinway grand piano by Bigcat Instruments, built from the free University of Iowa samples. The listing says almost every note is sampled and provides three velocity layers, giving the instrument more response than a single static piano sample.
Win32, Win64, and macOS VST builds are listed alongside a macOS AU build. Use Iowa Piano for chord sketches, exposed piano lines, songwriter demos, and arrangement work where a compact sampled grand is more practical than a large piano library.
