Steinway Model-D grand piano
The Concert Grand is a multi-sampled reproduction of a Steinway Model-D grand piano. It has a rich and warm tone, and a wide playable dynamic range that relates every nuance of the performance to its audience in a natural environment.
The character of any piano is intrinsically linked to the venue where it is played, and this instrument was designed to capture the sound of that real performance in a real space – while keeping it versatile enough to use in any style of music.
The UI has been designed to give you quick access to fundamental mixing features, as well as a variety of carefully crafted tone shaping enhancements – allowing the character of the instrument to be easily tailored to your production.
Please Note: The full version of Kontakt 5.5.2 or above is required to load this instrument. It will only work in Demo Mode in Kontakt Player. Please ensure you have the correct version of Kontakt before ordering.
FEATURES:
5 dynamic layers
4 stereo microphone positions
Built-in IR reverb
Specially designed scripts for tone shaping controls
Microphone positions:
Hammers: A pair of SM57 dynamic mics directly over the hammers produce a hard attack from the players perspective
Close: A pair of Neumann TLM103 condensers spaced out over the strings to capture the full body and clarity of the soundboard and strings
Distant: An AEA R-88 stereo ribbon mic brings a warm and gentle character from a few feet away
Ambient: A pair of AKG C414 omnidirectional condenser mics spaced far out in the venue to pick up the natural reflections in this beautiful auditorium
Signature Grand is a Model D 9-foot Concert Grand recorded in a beautiful hall/scoring stage. The instrument naturally excels in film and classical applications, but the user is able to craft the sound to be suitable to nearly any style of playing.
What makes our piano different? Our instrument is bursting with three-dimensional realism due to a unique sampling and scripting process that captures the beautiful early reflections of the recording space. By blending two microphone perspectives, the user is able to find the perfect balance between close and room microphones, as well as controlling the overall ambiance of the space through our “releases” controls.

A Unique Collectable Library of Synthesizers that Keeps a Print of Time
In this library, Strix Instruments have collected eleven unique Soviet children’s synthesizers, which have survived to this day: the age of these instruments is from 30 to 50 years! The sound recording was done from the original speakers of these instruments; thus, the sound is as intended by the designers. It feels like Strix Instruments have put an entire era in a few gigabytes of data.
Imperfect yet Extraordinary
Time and various storage conditions have left their mark on the sound of these synths. Each of them has aged in its own way, which influenced the analogue elements of the instrument and the final sound, which acquired a variety of artefacts. Strix Instruments carefully preserved the characteristic shade of each note for your inspiration and creativity.
Beautiful and Intuitive Interface
Strix Instruments did their best to provide you with maximum control over each tool and to keep the library beautiful and easily manageable. Switch between synthesizers, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the 80s, create great synthwave or experiment with other genres of music.
Sound from the 80’s Flavoured with Time and Radiation
Strix Instruments are here not only to give you the experience of playing the soviet synthesizer but to immerse you into the actual atmosphere of the ’80s. To do that, Strix Instruments went to the Chernobyl exclusion zone – the only place on Earth that doomed forever for 1986. Exploring the radioactive streets and buildings, Strix Instruments collected some special Impulse Responses collection for Convolution Reverb.
Free Updates in the Future
Strix Instruments are happy to confirm that you can expect future updates with new synthesizers for free. It is a truly collectable library.
