Had fun with this one! https://youtu.be/u-D1SLbApIQ Piano: Steingraeber

Does anyone have experience with running organteq in a multi channel speaker setup (4.1) with Ableton and Envelop for live (E4L). How do you route the channels from organteq ? Great, swell, pedal - front speakers Recit: rear speakers Reverb ??? - all channels?! Pedal - front ? How about the reverberation settings/mix ? Ideally the reverb image you would experience from the console/organists perspective. I guess it is not equally between front and rear. Organteq outputOrgan work / SignalE4L Panner PositioningSound effect in spaceChannels 1/2Great (main work)Front (centered / wide)Forms the powerful foundation directly from the front speakers.Channels 3/4Swell (Swell)Middle to slightly backCan be dynamically moved to the rear via the Panner (simulates the opening/closing of the sill doors in the room).Channels 5/6Pedal (bass)Front (centered)Low frequencies are difficult to locate, but come best from the front for the pressure.Channels 7/8Organ Reverb (Hall)Rear (Wide)Is placed completely on the rear speakers. As a result, you "stand" in the middle of the nave. Any suggestions for the recipe? Tks in advance

I put together a PREEMPT_RT Linux box (PianoRT) to run Pianoteq at very low latency, and I'm curious how it compares to other setups. It boots straight to Pianoteq in under 5 seconds, holds 1.3ms measured buffer latency, and handles 250+ voices of polyphony with zero xruns, even with the sustain pedal held down through a full piece. Video of it running: https://youtu.be/X46wiM3ON64 If you want to try it on your own machine, the benchmark file and rules are here: pianort.com/index.php/the-250-challenge/ Curious what people find.

This composition comes from the program I prepared for the supplementary entrance exam to the Music Academy in Gdańsk (Poland) yesterday. I did not pass the exam because I cannot play the harpsichord. https://youtu.be/KroBgW9yL5A?si=OCDEbmoCbMY-WkeU

Christian Palmer (1811-1875) was a German composer. He lived in Tübingen (Germany) for many years and worked as a professor of practical theology and ethics at the University of Tübingen. Christian Palmer had a particular musical talent and, alongside his professional work, also composed sacred songs. The sacred song ‘Mache dich auf, werde Licht!’ is a composition for mixed a cappella choir (SATTBB) and begins with a passage for four-part male choir, before continuing in a four-part mixed choral setting. The lyrics refer to the biblical passage in Isaiah 60:1–3 and describe a prophetic promise of the coming light in God and, with it, the end of darkness for the nations. In the final bars of the composition, the exhortation “Therefore, arise and become light” is emphasised by a striking vocal line in the male voices. The hymn is also included in the New Apostolic Church’s choir songbook under No. 9. Organteq 2 - Puget - Taur (Toulouse - 1880) J.

A fun poke at the myth that was the Cat Organ using Pianoteq and Airteq ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_organ No need to ever actually build one ... https://forum.modartt.com/uploads.php?f...y_Catz.mp3 No Airteq organ pipes were harmed in the production of this offering

Cycling back around to improve (hopefully) some of the recent new styles. An easygoing walking bass swing with a buoyant rhythm and a touch of minor-key color. It finds a little brightness in every step. https://youtu.be/6yKmVc2yqSA Piano: Steingraeber

You might've seen my topic from the steinway d ultra-realism preset, Pianoteq Ultra-Realistic Recording Presets . So far, I've improved very far from the 1st draft of this preset all the way to a tone that you'd hear from legendary labels such as Deutsche Grammophon (atleast to my ears). Here's my take on hyper-realism: Steinway D (HB) Studio Recording The main problem in pianoteq's presets is the general tone of the piano. To put it simply, I've never liked the sound generated by pianoteq. I don't know if its a personal issue, rarely trying or performing on world-class concert grands, or even watching concerts with them. I decided to change that since I'm basically unemployed and have too much free time. With my limited equipment of a $20 IEM, a USB-C DAC, I decided to create a preset that sounds "good enough" to my ears while not hitting the limiter. Details about the preset: - Large studio reverb, with 4 mics (2 close, 2 room) - Spectrum profile has been changed a lot to obtain a much more organic tone - Almost nonexistent hammer noise and bright hammer tone - Increased soundboard impeadance. - Reduced direct sound duration and increased unison width - Dynamics reduced to a point similar to recordings - Hammer hardness variations within the keyboard range, especially at forte -> fortissimo Note: Change the velocity curve immediately, only used for the demo. Feedback is welcome That's all from me, I hope people can enjoy this preset. Preset Demo(s): F. Chopin - Ballade No.
