Piano Smasher Functionality

Pain Piano also features a Piano Smasher functionality that allows you to create endless new sounds by randomizing the original samples: you can create cluster and tonal elementstransitionsdark impacts and many other useful cinematic effects.

You can even choose a weapon to virtually smash the piano (hammer, katana and dynamite) and experiment with the different sound signatures corresponding to each one!

Tempo Synched Loops

This library also features a large set of tempo synched loops (130+), that can be individually or globally tuned to a specific root key, and a Convolution Reverb module featuring 120+ IRs (Impulse Responses) to further sculpt the sound and create your own, unique effects.

Pain Piano includes a total of 530+ high resolution, royalty-free sounds (.wav 96 kHz, 24 bit) plus 8 Kontakt instruments.

Kontakt Instruments: SAMPLE PANEL

“Pain Piano” features 8 Kontakt instruments that allow you to individually manipulate the samples: each sample featured in the instrument can be independently edited by adjusting the controls on the UI reported in the figure above. Every time you play a sample, the corresponding waveform is displayed at the centre of the UI and all the controls of Sample Offset, Envelope, Filter, Pitch and Volume are updated to the current ones.

Global Pitch Mode

Global Pitch Mode is activated by pressing the button GLOBAL located in the upper right corner of the Sample Panel. When activated, Global Pitch allows you to control the pitch of every sample in the instrument simultaneously. Therefore changing the value of the pitch for the current sample will affect the pitch for any other sample in the instrument.

Moreover, when Global Pitch is activated, an Octave Shifter slider appears on the left: this allows you to shift the tuning of -2 to +2 octaves from the root key you’ve set.

Convolution Reverb

Pain Piano features a Convolution module to further colour and sculpt the sound of the instruments. You can experiment by selecting from more than 120 experimental samples, which have been divided in two categories, texture and rhythm.

Moreover, you can use the convolution samples even outside of Kontakt, loading them in your favourite convolution reverb!
