Received: 11 January 2019; Accepted: 26 February 2019; Published: 4 March 2019 Abstract: A library of piano samples composed of binaural recordings and keyboard vibrations has been built, with the aim of sharing accurate data that in recent years have successfully advanced the knowledge on several aspects about the musical keyboard and its multimodal feedback to the performer. All samples were recorded using calibrated measurement equipment on two Yamaha Disklavier pianos, one grand and one upright model. This paper documents the sample acquisition procedure, with related calibration data. Then, for sound and vibration analysis, it is shown how physical quantities such as sound intensity and vibration acceleration can be inferred from the recorded samples. Finally, the paper describes how the samples can be used to correctly reproduce binaural sound and keyboard vibrations. The library has potential to support experimental research about the psycho-physical, cognitive and experiential effects caused by the keyboard’s multimodal feedback in musicians and other users, or, outside the laboratory, to enable an immersive personal piano performance.

  • Pianoteq 6 Free Download Pianoteq
    pianoteq 6 free download Pianoteq. Pianoteq 4 is defined as the future of virtual pianos and offers the best and latest available technology. This software is a great upgrade that includes new sounds, functions, effects and only takes up only 20MB. The sound is produced through a physical modeled instrument that simulates the properties and behaviors of real acoustic pianos. It is a very adaptable instrument that can be connected to your MIDI compatible keyboard. The complex resonances can capture a piano in all its richness, like the resonance of a harp and all its cords, the duplex scale or the muffling effect when a key is played (different nuances of muffling) between other special effects, like staccato. Pianoteq 4 also includes 4 pedals: middle pedal, sostenunto pedal, harmonic pedal and una corda pedal. This program also lets you choose the position of the microphone and a mixture of the multiple channels (more than 5 microphones and 5 channels). Pianoteq 4 includes an equalizer, key velocity connectors, volume, dynamic sounds that control the volume from pianissimo to fortissimo. Pianoteq 6 free download. Pianoteq is an award-winning virtual instrument which you can install on your computer (PC/Mac). It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and will even run on some ARM-based boards such as the Raspberry Pi. It can be used both in standalone mode and as an instrument plug-in in VST, AAX, and AudioUnits hosts. Pianoteq offers superior playability and reproduces the complex behaviour typical of real acoustic instruments. Moreover, it lets you tweak the sound to your taste with the help of unique parameters.
