The Walnut Concert Grand Piano (pro) recorded Steinway contains two mic perspectives. With 15 velocity layers of mic perspective 1, and 12 velocity layers of perspective 2, along with piano FX, sympathetic resonance**, and true staccato articulations in both perspectives, the Steinway Walnut Concert Grand (pro) has more versatility than the (basic) package.
This is essentially two distinct Walnut Concert Grand pianos in one package.
Mic Perspective 1: From the player's position, for an organic warm sound
Mic Perspective 2: Directly inside the instrument, for a clean sound
Treat this sampled piano library like a live instrument; mix the perspectives like you would a live recording.
