Fracture Sounds Woodchester Piano v1.1.0 Full Version DownloadWoodchester Piano
A beautiful upright felt piano, developed in close collaboration with film and TV composer James Everingham (Frozen Planet II, with Hans Zimmer, Heroes, Apollo: Missions To The Moon).

This is James’s personal piano, which we have sampled in glorious detail to share with composers around the world.

About The Instrument
Woodchester Piano is the first in our new series of collaborations with talented composers and artists, bringing you a range of finely crafted virtual instruments full of personality. This library was produced in close collaboration with film and TV composer James Everingham and features his Wilh. Steinberg German Series upright piano, intimately recorded with the felt pedal engaged.

Despite its rich and detailed sound, Woodchester Piano has an impressively small memory footprint and can run beautifully on laptops and less powerful computers.

Captured in detail
We visited James’s studio and spent several days carefully sampling every nuance of the instrument. We then spent many months mixing, polishing and fine-tuning the instrument, resulting in a stunning virtual piano with a beautifully versatile sound, which is a joy to play.

Woodchester Piano also includes key release and pedal samples, a unique pianist noise feature to add subtle rustling and wood creaks for heightened realism and adjustable colour control to dial in the perfect tone for your composition.

Atmosphere Layers
Woodchester Piano includes three atmospheric sound design layers which blend together with the raw piano beautifully.

– The ‘Ache‘ layer adds a smooth, hazy sustain – a marriage between a reverb and a pad.
– The ‘Dream‘ layer offers a more textural, shimmering sound.
– The ‘Clouds‘ layer adds a reversed granular delay effect which evolves over time.

These layers can be dialled in to taste using the Layer Mixer. Additionally, the global ‘intensity’ of these layers can be controlled using the ‘Atmosphere Intensity’ dial, or automated in real-time using the mod wheel.
