Product Description

• The Liberty Upright piano is not just a virtual instrument; it's a unique piece of history based on a robot-assisted deep multisampling of a 1915 Koch & Korselt upright grand piano from Bohemia in today’s Czech Republic. Renowned for its rich
• resonant sound
• this upright piano was captured twice — first in its original relic condition and then after being fine-tuned to the highest standard. The results double the unique new colors added to Pianoverse
• expanding your creative palette in ways you've never imagined. The Koch & Korselt is a testament to the art of piano making. It features a cast iron harp and a solid spruce soundboard
• carefully selected and seasoned. Along with its warm
• rich
• and powerful tone
• this venerable instrument is renowned for its exceptional aesthetic details. Originally offered in a selection of finishes
• each handcrafted to complement any room's decor
• it is a true masterpiece. Koch & Korselt pianos have a rich history of achievements. Though no longer made
• they have won numerous awards and accolades at international exhibitions. In 1900
• the company earned the Grand Prix at the Paris Exposition. In 1910
• Koch & Korselt pianos were awarded the gold medal at the Brussels World's Fair. This particular example is 100% original and was chosen among hundreds for its beautiful sound
• adding a whole new dimension to Pianoverse. Given this century-plus piano’s history
• IK captured it twice: first
• in its authentic
• relic state
• naturally detuned after years of settling and with beautifully soft damping that gives the piano almost a natural reverb
• and then again after being restored and fine-tuned by a master tuner. Both results sound amazing
• and they are the perfect sound source for exploring Pianoverse’s infinite sonic landscapes and effects. The Liberty Upright piano was meticulously recorded at the state-of-the-art IK studio
• located at the company headquarters in Modena
• Italy
• in the Emilia-Romagna region. The recording process used AKG 414 microphones to capture the close-miking sound and a coincident pair of DPA mics to capture the back of the piano
