IK Multimedia Pianoverse Concert Grand YF3 in License Code version.
The ConcertGrandYF3 is a virtualinstrument from IK Multimediabased on a carefully maintained 9' Yamaha CFIII concert grand piano. It is extremely sensitive and responsive to the lightest of touches, offering incredible sound volume as well as a wide range oftimbres required for a wide variety of musical projects.
Back when it was first unveiled in 1983, the grand piano was an instant success. Both critics and performers - including Chick Corea, Hiromi Uehara and Glenn Gould - praised its sound and playability. It was also the first Yamaha piano to feature the then-new Tri-Sensor Scaled Hammer Action II, which provided a more realistic feel and response. Since the Concert Grand is no longer manufactured today but is still considered one of the best concert pianos in the world, IK Multimedia simply brings the spectacular sound to your home with its YF3VST!
Great recordings for a great piano
To record this spectacular grand piano at the legendary Fonoprint Studios in Bologna, DPA microphones were used for close miking, while Schoeps microphones were the mid-distance coincident pair. The location is an old 15th century monastery that over the years has hosted the best Italian and international artists - from Ennio Morricone to Luciano Pavarotti and Andrea Bocelli.
New engine, infinite expression
Pianoverse products introduce a powerful new performance engine that perfectly reproduces the feel of the world's finest pianos while offering an inspiring range of malleable soundscapes - from iconic to exotic.
