All notes have been sampled at 8 different velocities for the utmost in realism and playability (some notes have been omitted for uniform tonality). Alan Parsons Imperial Grand provides over a gigabyte of content with over 650 stereo samples. To capture the essence of this dynamic instrument, Alan used AKG® C12 and Neumann® U67 valve microphones running through a classic EMI console that’s similar to the one he used while working with The Beatles and Pink Floyd.
IK Multimedia US founder and executive producer, Dave Kerzner, teamed up with Alan to sample a spectacular Bösendorfer® Model 290 grand piano at Mark Knopfler’s British Grove Studios in London. The library was recorded by legendary producer-engineer, Alan Parsons, known for his timeless work with Pink Floyd, The Beatles and of course The Alan Parsons Project. Exclusively sampled for the ultimate sound and groove workstation, these collections are: Alan Parsons Imperial Grand, an audiophile concert grand piano recorded by a legendary engineer and a world-class studio, and Terry Bozzio Drums, a huge library of drum kit samples and loops that captures the idiosyncratic essence of the master drummer whose work with Frank Zappa, Missing Persons, UK and Jeff Beck is the stuff of rock god legends.
– IK Multimedia is pleased to announce the availability of two new exciting sound libraries for SampleTank® 3 for Mac and PC.
