The 88 Series - Model 7 Grand | 8.03 GB
Model 7三角钢琴从雅马哈C7大尾声钢琴采样。我们的第一个想法是抽取一个CFIII,但是当我们去了出租屋时,我们完全爱上了这个,并选择了它。自80年代以来,这种钢琴在意大利都灵两个备受赞誉的音乐厅中一直使用,并且多年来一直由Michel Petrucciani和Chick Corea等艺术家演奏。这架钢琴由意大利高技术人员经常维护。我们在一个由麦克风组成的中等大小的大厅里抽取了这个小大的钢琴怪物。
我们从一开始就没有解决一对或一个有限的麦克风选择问题,我们希望确保钢琴在采样和编辑过程之后有最好的机会来保存它的灵魂,这是很难实现的。出于这个原因,我们使用了比我们结束的更多的麦克风。
原文
The Model 7 grand piano was sampled from a Yamaha C7 grand coda piano. Our first idea was to sample a CFIII, but when we went to the rental-house we totally fell in love with this one and chose it. This particular piano has been in constant use since the '80s in two highly praised concert halls in Torino (Italy) and has been played by artists like Michel Petrucciani and Chick Corea along the years. This piano is under constant maintenance by highly-skilled italian technicians. We sampled this little-big monster of a piano in a medium-size hall surrounded by a smorgasbord of microphones.
Macro-phones
We didn't settle for a single pair or a limited selection of microphones from the start, we wanted to make sure that the piano, after the sampling and editing process had the best chances to preserve its soul, something which can be hard to achieve. For this very reason, we used many more microphones than the ones we ended up with.
Choice of Microphones
These are the Mics we carefully selected after multiple playing and listening sessions on the edited samples:
a Schoeps CMC6 with MK4 cardiod capsules matched-pair placed at the player's position
a Royer 121 matched-pair placed inside the open-lid but at a healthy distance from the soundboard to pickup both the direct sound and the reflections from the lid thanks to their figure-8 patterns
a modded Oktava MK-012 spaced matched-pair, placed right above the strings
a pair of matched Neumann M149 mics to pick up the sound from a medium distance
These microphones, by themselves or combined, give you the widest possible gamut of tonal colors you might need from a top-notch concert piano. To preserve tonal balance, we even carefully phase-aligned all of the microphones.
