MultitrackStudio User Forum

Please no rude suggestions . I just finished compiling a 3 layer, stereo .gig piano file using the free piano samples from the University of Iowa. I am only a newbie but it sounds pretty good. (300MB zipped)

I am willing to give a copy for posting. Obviously I use GigaStudio with MultitrackStudio and its stability is impressive. It also seems to handle any plug-in you throw at it whereas other progs fall over regularly. I have even gotten the output of GigaStudio into MTStudio via the driver, that took a while.

Anyway glad for the forum

regards Mof

You might try posting your offer at the AudioMinds forum... http://www.audiominds.com/forums/

Also, you may want to consider recording and posting a short high quality song sample showing what your piano sounds like.

Thanks Saz that sounds like a good idea. I was also thinking of letting the people at the University of Iowa know what I'd done and maybe they would post it on their site. (they're probably not real worried about bandwidth) I might also offer that if they did a set of samples with the sustain peddle down I could add it to the gig.

Here is a link to an mp3 of a midi file played on the 500MB piano gig. It's a bit rough but you get an idea of what the paino sounds like

Sounds Great mof! At least to these non-piano-trained ears.

Hope to see others comment on this!

I have improved my Piano Gig file. I had left 20ms blanks at the start of each wave, which was a mistake, and the piano had some funny characteristics. I re-edited the waves to remove these blanks and the piano is sounding much tighter, tempo wise as well as more realistic. The keyboard to GigaStudio delay has also shrunk to a level where live playing is realistic. I thought the 20ms would simulate the hammer delay and wouldn't be noticeable to the ear, but how wrong I was!
