My Desert Island Piano VST - VI Labs Modern D

Pianissimo

jdg78 Usually compressor side (no limiter), all at 12 oclock, gain reduction and peak reduction at 12 oclock and you'll be fine.

I’ve recently started using a compressor and it seems to enhance my experience with the VST piano. I’m using the CLA-76, but after reading some of your comments, I’ve also added the CLA-2A which seems to improve further. 👍
I’m only using the piano presets of the Waves compressors though as I’m not sure how to adjust them.

Pianissimo Thanks. FYI, in case you’re interested, the official UA audio version of the LA-2A plugin is currently being offered for free on their website. All you have to do is register and fill out a brief questionnaire and then you can download at no charge along with several other plugins.

I’ve been playing around with it and it sounds great!

[unknown] I worked with the developer to come up with the preset. Because I can't draw using the mouse, I asked them to remotely assist me.


David Lai

[unknown] I sent him the velocity preset and he baked it into the product. In the midi / response tab, you can load the "VPC 1 Custom" preset to access it.

[unknown] 🤔 Is that some sort of humor or…?


David Lai

[unknown] This VPC 1 velocity curve was meant to be built into the product. What on earth are you talking about?

Yes, we all wanna know, what the hell is Tony talking about?

If you look all of @[deleted] messages are on this topic. There is some kind of fixation. And the last message is utter nonsense... Maybe a bot?


David Lai

thanks for taking care of this, mods.

I found this old Mrs Mills Piano VST from Spitfire Audio, which is a vintage Steinway upright. It’s probably something that you could only use occasionally as it is detuned, but it seems nice. I pulled one of my MIDI files from my collection and recorded with the default “All Together” preset of the piano, and it seems to fit quite well with this piece.

Fun!

It immediately reminds me of a 78tpm record I once had, with also The Entertainer on an upright piano.

Lightens up my otherwise gray day a tad 🙂.

Cheers!
