Description

[product_brand]

The EastWest Quantum Leap Pianos Bundle packages together four high-quality libraries for your convenience. Four pianos are included: a Bechstein 280, a Steinway D, a Yamaha C7, and a Bosendorfer 290. The first three pianos are 88-key concert grand models. The Bonsendorfer sports an extended low range, with 98 keys.

Samples are triggered and played through the accompanying PLAY software, a 64-bit audio engine that powers the EastWest Quantum library. This software is compatible with Mac and Windows platforms, and operates in AU, AAX, and VST formats.

Pianos Bundle Features

Quantum Leap Pianos Bechstein 280 – Virtual Instrument

The EastWest Quantum Leap Pianos Bechstein 280 Platinum is a virtual piano that samples an 88-key, 9′ German concert grand. The timbre of the instrument is precise and technical, quite suited to demanding classical works and pop music alike. In fact, the rock and pop patches offered here have been recorded under the tutelage of legendary engineer/producer Ken Scott.

This 74GB library has been painstakingly captured with multiple mic positions and with sampling techniques that secure an authentic sound. For instance, piano repetition samples have been recorded in real-time from 180 BPM performances, so when you go for a repetition, you’ll hear a recording of the real thing—not a retriggered, alternate sample. Sympathetic pedal resonances have also been recorded for every note at many different velocities.

Key Features at a Glance

Load any mic position individually
3 mic positions included for flexibility
10 to 18 velocities per note of sustain and sustain with pedal
8 to 12 velocities per note of repetitions and repetitions with pedal
5 to 8 velocities of soft pedal and soft pedal with sustain pedal
16 velocity staccato on every piano
Repetition samples taken from 180 BPM performances for a true repetition sound and not simply an alternate take
Software detects true repetitions
Pedal resonance recorded for every note at multiple velocities as well as with the soft pedal down
Release samples with software envelope follower
Articulations on each piano include

Articulation matrix for quick and straightforward loading
PLAY interface includes impulses from the same hall the producers used to record Symphonic Orchestra and Symphonic Choirs, so the pianos can blend with those collections.

Quantum Leap Pianos Bosendorfer 290 – Virtual Instrument

The EastWest Quantum Leap Pianos Bosendorfer 290 is a virtual piano that samples a 98-key, 9.5′ Grand Imperial Concert Grand. The piano itself has a warm, dynamic, resonant, and romantic tone. The extended low range gives you a body you can’t get from a traditional 88-key piano. Even the patches that only utilize 88 keys benefit from the resonance the extra ten keys provide.

This 88GB library has been painstakingly captured with multiple mic positions, and with sampling techniques that secure an authentic sound. For instance, piano-repetition samples have been recorded in real-time from 180 BPM performances; so when you go for a repetition, you’ll hear a recording of the real thing—not a retriggered, alternate sample. Sympathetic pedal resonances have also been recorded for every note at many different velocities.

Quantum Leap Pianos Yamaha C7 – Virtual Instrument

The EastWest Quantum Leap Pianos Yamaha C7 is a virtual piano that offers a bright tone perfect for rock and pop. This particular piano was utilized on a wide swath of famous pop and rock records. This library distinguishes itself not only by its brilliant, clear timbre, but also by the attention paid to sampling the software dynamics of the instrument.

This 47GB library has been painstakingly captured with multiple mic positions and with sampling techniques that secure an authentic sound. For instance, piano repetition samples have been recorded in real-time from 180 BPM performances, so when you go for a repetition, you’ll hear a recording of the real thing—not a retriggered, alternate sample. Sympathetic pedal resonances have also been recorded for every note at many different velocities.
