{"product_id":"pianoteq-9-standard-physically-modeled-piano-plugin","title":"Pianoteq 9 Standard - Physically Modeled Piano Plugin","description":"\u003cp\u003ePianoteq 9 Standard is the mainstream edition of Modartt's physically modeled piano and the version most players settle on, adding extensive instrument customization and microphone control to the same real-time modeling engine found throughout the Pianoteq range. Because the piano is calculated rather than sampled, the parameters that define its character are genuinely adjustable: hammer hardness, string length, soundboard properties, unison detuning, sympathetic resonance, and more all respond as physical properties of the modeled instrument rather than as effects applied to a recording. Change the hammer hardness and the tone changes the way it would after a technician voices the hammers on a real piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard adds adjustable microphone positioning, letting you place virtual microphones around the instrument to move between an intimate close perspective, a natural player position, and a distant room sound. Morphing and layering let you blend two instruments into a hybrid or stack them for larger textures, a capability that is only possible because the sound is generated rather than played back. The edition includes the standard set of instrument presets covering grand and upright pianos plus additional keyboard instruments, with the full Pianoteq library of add-on instrument packs available separately. Standalone and plugin operation, comprehensive MIDI support, adjustable temperaments, and a small disk footprint make it equally suited to the studio, the stage, and daily practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjust the Instrument as a Physical Object\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHammer hardness, string length, soundboard behavior, unison width, and sympathetic resonance are exposed as editable physical parameters, so voicing the instrument to your taste works the way it does on a real piano rather than through EQ and effects. Every adjustment carries through the full dynamic range naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicrophone Positioning, Morphing, and Layering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVirtual microphone placement lets you dial in the perspective a track needs, from close and detailed for pop production to distant and roomy for classical recording. Morphing between instruments creates hybrid pianos that do not exist physically, and layering stacks instruments for larger, richer textures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePianoteq 9 Standard Key Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhysically Modeled Piano Virtual Instrument\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEditable Physical Parameters Including Hammer Hardness and String Length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable Soundboard, Unison Width, and Sympathetic Resonance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVirtual Microphone Positioning for Close and Room Perspectives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstrument Morphing and Layering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable Temperaments and Tuning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgressive Half-Pedaling and Realistic Damper Behavior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVery Small Disk Footprint with Instant Loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandalone and Plugin Operation with Full MIDI Support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Pianoteq Add-On Instrument Packs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pianoteq","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53512473805089,"sku":"911253","price":269.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0665\/8883\/6129\/files\/911253_812ed9ee-332a-4938-9ec9-9a7bf57584ce.jpg?v=1789495101","url":"https:\/\/e2genesis.com\/products\/pianoteq-9-standard-physically-modeled-piano-plugin","provider":"e2genesis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
