Details

The library includes a variety of sonic manipulations and progressive synth sounds, designed to inspire creativity. The felted piano is recorded with four distinct signals: KM84 for a crisp sound, Coles for a gritty low-end effect, a processed mix for a signature tone, and a spaced option for added depth. Each signal is crafted to provide different textures, allowing for a versatile approach to scoring.

In addition to the piano, the toolkit features a range of organic and warped sounds, including ambient pads and synth embellishments. The interface offers intuitive controls for adjusting dynamics and effects, enabling composers to shape the sound to fit their creative vision. This instrument is particularly suited for intimate scores, underscoring emotional moments in film or personal projects.
