Robscahill Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 If you are familiar with trance or hardcore there is a very common predominant ambient type piano Can anyone recommend good settings on the reverbs and such or how to get the sound!! As well as which piano plug in Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Sandvik Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I didn't even know that trance has a distinct piano, or even used pianos instead of that annoying Nord lead synth sound . Have you tried any of the presets for Space Designer and the other reverb plugins? Also make your own trance piano sound to make trance listenable again.

Robscahill Posted June 15, 2010 Author Share Posted June 15, 2010 I shall try and link here my thing! I have but its just not right, I want to know how to do it, then play with it for my own sound:) As I rather like the sound anyway, I only wish to make minor changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraze Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Any piano sound + one octave below + one octave higher + huge reverb at 10% + short delay at 10% + long delay at 20%. Layer a copy of the track, high-passed at 1.5khz, compress it heavily and there you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidpye Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Also use as few samples within said piano sound. Most pianos I hear within harder dance music have very few samples, maybe 1 per octave, which gives them that stiff, and slightly warped sound as your often hearing a pitch shifted note rather than an ACTUAL note for note sample. Not sure that makes much sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know anything about trance pianos but old house pianos are i think korg m1 piano and roland jd800 piano. and these i think are also sampled very few notes at least this m1 piano...
