T30-GP: A Piano That Cuts Through the Mix for Modern Tracks
Looking for a virtual piano with a unique character that won’t get lost in even the densest mix? Introducing T30-GP by 12bitz – a plugin that reproduces the timbre of a grand piano sampled from an unusual source. It’s not a classic concert grand, but an instrument created specifically for the needs of modern music. Its sound has a special presence and clarity, inherited from the portable digital instrument on which the samples were based. This feature makes T30-GP ideal for genres where the piano has to effectively compete with other loud elements of the arrangement – pop, rock, electronic music, R’n’B, etc. If your piano “drowns” in the mix, T30-GP may be the solution.
Features and Structure
T30-GP is based on detailed sampling:
- All 88 keys of the grand piano are sampled.
- 3 velocity layers are used for basic dynamics.
- The plugin contains 264 samples (16 bit / 44100 Hz), which provides quality sufficient for most studio tasks, with low system load.
This configuration makes T30-GP a convenient tool for quick implementation of ideas.
Compatibility
The T30-GP plugin is available in VST and AU (Audio Units) formats.
It supports Windows (32/64 bit) and macOS operating systems. For macOS users, the developer points out possible compatibility issues with the latest versions of the OS – testing is recommended. Windows users can expect stable operation.
Who is this plugin for?
T30-GP is ideal for:
- Musicians and producers in modern genres.
- Beatmakers and content creators who need a distinctive piano sound.
- Anyone looking for a piano that can effectively “sit” in the mix.
