8dio 1985 Passionate Piano 1.0 KONTAKT | 20.1 Gb
8Dio 1985 Passionate Grand Piano is an ultra deep-sampled piano library - featuring over 66.000 samples, up to 10 velocity layers, 5 round-robin, a wealth of flexible articulations and all across 6 microphone positions. The microphones were literally surrounding the entire piano, so you can create exactly the sound you want.
Whether it is getting close to the strings or listening from the players position. Whether its the darker tones underneath the piano or more ambient perspectives using room microphones. We used the finest Neumann microphones (U87, Um57) and a wealth of other high-end studio microphones.
Equally important is the elegant playability. The 1985 Passionate Piano plays fluently across all velocities - with a beautiful, warm and wide sound of a mature grand. You will not notice these are samples, but rather a real instrument at your finger tips. Full of life, personality, natural resonance and harmonics.
The Passionate Grand Piano contains core both deep-sampled Sustains, Una Corda (felt piano), Staccatissimo and Staccato. The short note staccatos were recorded with 5 RR pr. velocity layer - offering you the ability to play incredibly fast licks with clear definition on the attack of the sound. This feels and plays completely realistically. The Passionate Piano also contains our latest Chaos FX designed for sound design. We included many of our new custom Textural Convolution Delays, which gives the instrument the ability to delay textures from other non-piano sound sources.
The 8Dio Passionate Grand Piano is a labour of love. Recorded through true analog vintage equipment and with 6 independent microphones positions. Encapsulating the deeper spirit of the instrument. 66,000 samples, up to 10 velocity layers and a virtual instrument designed for the compositional mind and happy fingers.

World-Class Microphones
The 1985 Passionate Grand Piano offers you access to 6 high-end studio microphones for pianos, including Neumann U87, Neumann UM57, AKG414 and even custom home-made microphones for unique sounds. The microphones were placed in 5 different positions. Our close microphone gives an intimate, near-string sound. The Ears microphones were placed exactly where the player is sitting. Bottom position is microphones underneath the piano for a darker tone. Mid position mics give a full room sound and our Far position gives you a full rich, ambient perspective. You can literally create any perspective you want with a single click of a mouse.
Deep Options
The 1985 Passionate Grand Piano also includes a wealth of features - allowing you to create in precisely the sound you want. The library comes with both deep-sampled sustains, una corda (felt piano), short staccatissimo with x 5 round robin and staccato notes with x 5 round robin. We call this ultra deep-sampling. We also included unique sound design elements of all articulations, so you can mangle the piano into new directions. We also added our front-face FX, which gives you immediate access to a variety of custom effects for further sound design.
Chaos FX
The 1985 Passionate Grand Piano contains our Chaos FX system, which allows you to virtually do anything you desire to the Grand. Whether its create a step-based filter sequencer, precision dial EQ, bit-crush or distort, stereo-delay or mess around with dual convolution reverbs.
