Product Overview
Claire is a flagship concert grand piano captured at Galaxy Studios. The instrument focuses on clarity and power with long, singing strings and a controllable image via blendable close, mid and far mics. It balances concert realism with creative sound design through the included Particles engine.
Details
The core piano presents a wide dynamic range and precise attack with adjustable hammer and pianist noises, pedal behavior and velocity response. Mic Blend dials between intimacy and roomed depth, and the FX page covers EQ, compression, saturation, stereo image and ambience. Particles—borrowed from Noire and Piano Colors—adds reactive harmonic clouds that follow your playing for evolving underscore or contemporary textures. Built with Galaxy Instruments and compatible with the free Kontakt Player 8+, Claire slots into cinematic scoring, solo performance and modern production alike.
