Colossal in size and exceptional in musical range, the grand piano is the undisputed centerpiece of any orchestra. With its infinite expression—resonant, wild, and untamed, yet utterly articulate—it adapts to every musical scenario, from the most powerful to the most velvety. In this EKX expansion for EZkeys 2, we've taken what is arguably the grand piano of grand pianos and placed it in one of the most impeccably designed studios ever built, utilizing the world's best recording technology to capture it. The result is a pristine grand piano, breathtakingly epic in every way.
The instrument in question is a Steinway* D-274, one of the world's most renowned instruments in its class and a favorite choice for concert halls worldwide. Measuring 274 centimeters long, this majestic and unique colossus is a marvel of engineering and craftsmanship, composed of 12,000 meticulously assembled parts. To immortalize it, there's no better place than the main room at Galaxy Studios, where the main library for Superior Drummer 3 and several other Toontrack libraries were recorded. With its impressive height and 330 square meters, it offers an ambience designed for natural yet controlled reverberation.
