    I've always been a fan of sine sounds as they tend to work in a variety of contexts.

    While the sounds are relatively simple the programming really brings them alive and adds a lot of character.

    The main downside is the the lack of any controls on the GUI. Adding some basic FX controls and ASDR etc. would make them even more usable.

  • My Favorite Piano So Far!

    I haven't gone through every piano here yet, but so far this is by far my favorite.

    I much prefer original character over endless permutations of stale/pristine pianos and this one has plenty of it. I'm also a fan of the Olafur Arnalds Felt Piano and Soft Piano from Spitfire but I'm gravitating more to this one lately.

    The only downside is the upload is missing the Kemble.nkr file so it gives multiple errors when loaded and the interface is blank and there are no controls.

  • Impressive experiment. Very usable, though a "lite" versions would be great.

    I downloaded this out of curiosity, not sure if I'd keep it.
    I love plenty of quirky piano's here that only have a few layers. This tries to replicate a full 127 layers based on limited source material with varying results.

    It can sound great, especially at lower velocities, but a few notes (A3 for example) tend to stick out and don't sound as natural as many of the others.
    Some tweaks might be able to improve the consistency. I'm also a bit skeptical it couldn't sound nearly as good with half the layers, and space requirements.

    The interface is functional and minimal. It's great to see Raum being used. It's quite versatile, so exposing a few parameters to the user would add a lot more variety. I also love Replika with diffusion, and convolution reverbs with creative impulses, but I can play with those in the main output section of Kontakt. :)

    Thanks for submitting it. For me it's a keeper.

  • Very Nice!

    Great set of sounds and the multi's are very usable. Looking forward to more.

  • Great take on a classic sound

    As a massive Sigur Rós fan for 20+ years this was an immediate download. Please try more Sigur Rós style sounds ;)
    While it's quite different than the original, that's what great about trying to emulate, "failure" creates something original.

    While easy to use external FX, a HP filter would be very useful as it can be quite resonant at times which might not be ideal for a background layer. A Replika delay and convolution reverb could add more creative possibilities. An option to play the samples in reverse would be cool too.
