American Concert D Achieving nearly universal recognition as the king of the hill in any field is no easy task. Ivory, the set of sampled pianos created by Synthogy, is widely regarded as the most realistic and playable software of its kind. You own Ivory and frequently call up its thunderous Bosenderfor, the Yamaha C7, and perhaps severals other pianos. If you’re tracking New Age music you may even layer these gorgeous keyboards with one of the synth presets that come with the package. Synthogy recently released a new piano, American Concert D. Do you really want to punk down nearly $200 for yet another sampled piano? In short, yes. This Steinway D, built in 1951, is an exquisite addition to the Synthogy collection. It may well become your go to keyboard regardless of the style of music you favor. There’s something about the feel of a beautifully built American Steinway that seems to invite the fingers to go deeper inside the keyboard than almost any other piano. The limits of the midi spec will always be one of the factors that make it impossible to replace the beauty of the real thing, but somehow this piano, even more than other Synthogy instruments, evokes the touch that one associates with the original. And the sound? Buttery when needed, powerful upon request. This is a magnificent instrument. Head over to the Synthogy website (synthogy) and take a listen to some of the demos. Once you do you’ll probably grab your credit card and slide over to ILIO’s site (ilio) to order your copy.
