Main Features

The Character of a Reference Grand Piano

Based on a Steinway Model D concert grand piano, Studio Grand emphasizes character, musicality, and presence. This model, often chosen by many pianists, delivers a recognizable sonic identity, with natural warmth and projection that works well both in solo and dense arrangements.

A Sound That Can Be Shaped for Production and Stage

Thanks to six selectable microphone perspectives, you can shape your piano sound from close and intimate to a wider, more airy image. This flexibility allows you to place the piano perfectly in the mix or opt for a more direct and stable sound live.

ExploreMaps: Ready-to-Use Colors

ExploreMaps provide presets covering several sonic approaches, from an "open" and natural piano to more processed and surprising sounds. This saves time in quickly finding a color suited to the style while maintaining a premium piano foundation.
