Vertikal – The Piano Alternative (14.9GB)
There are so many sampled pianos on the market today and you as a musician have the benefit to be able to choose from the multitude of different brands and sounds. Most, or nearly all of the sampled pianos are great, wonderful grand pianos like Steinway’s, Bosendorfer and other truly amazing instruments.
But, sometimes you need something different…
“Vertikal” is an upright piano recorded and designed to do the job when you need that little extra “umpf” in your songs, whether that is rock, blues, jazz, gospel or anything that needs the extra attitude. In short, it’s perfect for when you need something that’s not that “grand”.
The details:
- Yamaha MJ5 Upright Piano
- Two different perspectives to choose from.
- More than 2300 individual samples per perspective – giving you over 4600 samples that are perfect for pop, rock, jazz, blues, gospel and everywhere in between.
Vertikal – The piano alternative. Two different perspectives, Pop and Jazz gives you two different instruments to choose from. Incredible 48 samples/note (36 for Gigastudio 2), cuts this sampled instrument in a class of its own!
Cin-C – Cinematic Grand (3.4GB)
”This is a piano that doesn’t exist”
“Cin-C – Cinematic Grand” is a totally unique instrument that will inspire you to explore new musical boundaries or maybe just poor a glass of your favorite beverage and play and play and play…
It’s an instrument that breathes and resonates, but at the same time has the contact and clarity of a close miked instrument. This piano is totally unique, the fact that it doesn’t exist in the real world gives you a brand new sound texture to work with that you’ve never heard before. It is a Grand Piano, but a very, very beautiful one! Bells and whistles already applied – just load and be inspired!
The Bells & Whistles
Sampletekk wanted to make an instrument that was ambient but at the same time had the touch and exactness of a close miked instrument. Using ambient mikes only can lead to a great sound, but as a musician, you might experience a bit of inexactness in the attack.
Just blending two signals together didn’t really accomplish what Sampletekk wanted, so instead they used a combination of different sources, morphing and convoluting techniques that gave them the result they were after.
The resonance of a Grand Piano is very interesting! With all the dampers up, (by pressing the sustain pedal), all strings are undamped, so when hitting a note, you will get a very complex variation of sympathetic resonances from the strings and soundboard.
Sampletekk have captured that resonance and enhanced it so this instrument really, really breathes and sings!

Singularis – Old School Recording Piano (2.73GB)
In the 50’s, the recording studios weren’t what they are today. A few microphones and few tracks on the tape machines made sessions a bit different than today’s workflow. Most of the music was recorded live with very few, if any, overdubs.
This led to a way of recording that made a special sound, you can hear it on most recordings from the late 50’s through the first years of the 60’s.
The “Singularis” is an instrument that recreates that sound and is a part of Sampletekk’s “No nonsense, load and play” series.
Through recording and processing, vintage analog equipment has been used to provide you with the sound of that magic era. The goal with this library was not to provide you with a fancy GUI, but to give you an instrument and a sound that is inspiring to play and create with.
Oh, and it’s in mono, since the 50’s was in mono, (and black & white…).
White Grand – Studio Grand (5.3GB)
Sampletekk proudly presents the “White Grand”, probably the best contemporary pop/rock/jazz grand piano in the sampled world today.
This library was recorded using a Malmsjo Grand with the finest equipment available, and employed a specially designed digital recording technique to give you unequalled performance and sound. Prepare to explore a tactile and expressive feast, unparalleled in sampled pianos today!
You get an astonishing 32 different velocity samples, not only layers, but 32 DIFFERENT samples per note, (plus 4 release samples). This gives you total control over the dynamics that surpasses most of today’s existing sampled pianos.
The instrument was recorded in Studio Kuling, Sweden, in a room specially built and designed to record acoustic instruments. All the equipment used was chosen to deliver the best playing and recording results possible!
