Product description Available for download, the EastWest Quantum Leap Pianos Bosendorfer 290 Platinum 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.
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. - Key Features at a Glance
