I like the Baby Grand in Colossus and the UVI Ravenscroft the most.
I have been a long time user of Bs-16i and love it. But I have quite a number of sf2 files loaded into it and I can only have one active at a time.
Ie loading an AU preset does not switch to the sf2 that contains said preset.
Soundfonts AU does switch to the sf2 needed by a AU preset and that alone makes it very useful for me.
It does not contain efx like Bs-16i if that matters to you. So far Soundfonts AU has exceeded my expectations. Lite on cpu too.
Thanks for sharing this gem @White 😎
Reviving this thread with a specific question:
I can not with any joy use a piano that is bright. Anything named “Rock piano” or “bright piano” is per definition a no-go. I want my piano to sound like Jan Johansson in a velvet clad library on a rainy day. (And no, this is not about eq.)
Also it has to sound like you are not inside the piano. (As in, mics in the room - yes, mics in the piano - no.)
And I will take “character” over hi-fi any day.
If anybody here shares my piano preferences and have discovered something pleasing (auv3), please tell. Thanks!
@LarsDaniel in Scaler 2 there is a great felt piano which sounds mild and calm. And it's free to try.
BeatHawk added a Studio Grand expansion that has a lot of softness.
Pure Piano has a substantial soft side.
Great! Thanks comrades. I am learning the quirks of importing stuff into AudioLayer right now. 🥳
Yep! Audiolayer will play Logic (EXS24) instruments as well and there’s a handful of free, great sounding instruments on pianobook.
+1 Decent Sampler
Also, Numa Player covers a lot of ground for free
Oh yes, I did not know about Decent Sampler. That, and AudioLayer certainly opens some interesting doors. 👍🏻
I think the Salamander piano sounds great. I have loaded into AudioLayer. For a darker sound , I use AudioLayer’s filter to Damien the high frequencies.
Pure Upright
Ravenscroft Croft, which is on sale at 1/2 off
I don’t know about “best” because I’m far from expert but I’ll tell you that the piano I use the most is the MU Waverley Mellopiano. It’s a $.99 iap in moodunits.
Just came to add this :-)
Scaler in it’s free state comes with a beautiful felt piano. Highly recommended
I don’t know of a better sounding free piano than Salamander. I downloaded to my Mac, untarred them, zipped them and airdropped to my iPad. I imported it into AudioLayer. It couldn’t have taken more than a few minutes for the whole process.
I seem to recall that I might have needed to adjust the volume of the release layer that provides hammer noise.
I am not
Other sounds available too FWIW
Oh, wow. Yes just tried it, - very nice. Would never guessed to find a piano there. 😄
But for “real” playing it would need like three velocity zones or so. But still useful. So thanks for the tip.
you are welcome. Yeah of course its not too fancy. I think the main part of Scaler is actually not the piano or any other sound it comes with
however, I think the felt is quite nice to be sequenced with other instruments too. Enjoy, mate!
