Naturally, Native Instruments’ new NKS® (NATIVE KONTROL STANDARD) - allowing advanced integration with third-party software instruments - is there for the taking. On Mac OS X and Windows Piano V performs perfectly as an AAX-, AU-, VST-, and VST3-compatible plug-in in any DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) with MIDI Learn functionality to easily map all parameters to a MIDI CC (Control Change) or as a standalone version.


Indeed, Classical Upright, Concert Grand, Glass Grand, Intimate Grand, Jazz Upright, Metal Grand, Piano-bar Upright, Pop Grand, and Pop Upright offer something special to suit any (musical) occasion! Usefully, Piano V offers physical modelling of not just one but nine different acoustic pianos types rolled into one superb-sounding virtual instrument. Access is via the resizable (Retina/4K-compatible) GUI (Graphical User Interface) that’s as easy on the eye as it is to use. An abundance of tone-shaping features that usually require the services of a trained technician in the real world are a click away. Simply selecting a new preset changes every parameter instantly. Piano V users can creatively combine components into variations so subtle and acute as to bring the impossible to life! The composition of the hammers and their position to the type of piano and its condition, the number and placement of microphones to the size of the room housing the piano can all be changed instantly and simultaneously. Collectively concluding that it had succeeded in achieving the most accurate recreation of an acoustic piano possible in software, the determined developer set about unleashing that power in ways that are beyond the bounds of physical possibility. Arturia attentively analysed everything that has musically made the piano the perfect combination for personal expression and musical intimacy for over four centuries. GRENOBLE, FRANCE: music software and hardware developer Arturia is proud to announce availability of Piano V - meticulously modelling the sound and behaviour of one of the most important instruments history has yet thrown up - as of May 19…Ĭreating Piano V was a major undertaking.
