The Ivory II interface, while not the most contemporary in design, gives plenty of sound-shaping control. You'll need a sizeable 112GB to install the two pianos and you might be slightly taken aback by the dated interface but, fear not, these are two of the best sounding grand pianos out there. You get a Steinway B Grand Piano located in Power Station New England in Waterford, Connecticut, and a Bösendorfer 225 Grand Piano from Firehouse Recording Studios in Pasadena, California. These are excellent, but here we're focussing on the beauty, power and magnificence of the grand, and the grand only.Īs we hint at above, owning a grand demands a great space to put it in, but Synthogy has you covered with this title as it has two of the best grand pianos recorded in two of the best studios. There are other, more general, keyboard collections and piano VSTs out there that cover more varied keys requirements – here's looking at you Addictive Keys, Keyscape and Pianoteq.
This article explores the best individual or specific grand piano titles. There are many (many) software grand pianos out there. They take up no room like an acoustic piano – well, maybe a lot of Gigabytes on your hard drive, but you know what we mean – they cost a fraction of the real thing, and your playing is less of an issue when you're using a laptop and DAW to compose with them. However, software recreations of grand pianos have the answers to all of these practical issues.
And then you need to be able to play it – using a grand to play 'Chopsticks' does rather feel like driving a Ferrari to the shops to buy a pint of milk.
Then you need the cash – these things don't come cheap, with some of the most expensive grands costing well into six figures. For a start you need space – lots of it – and a matching room, one that helps complement the sound of the instrument.
