8Dio 1990 Studio Grand Piano Rachmaninov

Posted on by

This video demonstrates the 8Dio 1990 Studio Grand Piano (Yamaha C7). This music software instrument (VST, AU, AAX) contains over 48.000 samples. We recorded both pedal up/down on sustains, round-robin based staccatissimo and staccato notes. In addition we recorded everything through a custom NEVE desk at 96Khz and you have a wealth of microphone options, including Neumann u87, Coles, Neve SE Ribbon, Akg 414 and Neumann KM 184. We also recorded through two of the best hardware reverbs in the world.

In this video we take the ultimate challenge and test the 1990 Studio Grand Piano on Rachmaninov’s Prelude in C-Sharp Minor – written by a 19 year old Rachmaninov in 1891-1892.
