Hey all,
was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a good trance piano sample or VSTi (preferably samples for kontakt). Im after that typical bright, attacking, glassy piano sound you often hear. I have a few piano samples already but these are very true to a real grand piano and they just dont work in the mix for a trance song. I also checked out truepiano, which is awesome but its not what im after.
The sound im after can be heard during the break down on veracocha -carte blanche.
Any help, advice is greatly appreciated,
cheers, |

| Carte Blanche used a Korg M1. You can get the Korg M1 VST and its remarkably close to the hardware. |

| Disregarding everything bad people say about it, Nexus has some fantastic piano samples |

| I use NI akoustic piano. You probably want to turn down any hammer/pedal noise the VST has, then throw a little compression on and pump up the highs above 5k by about 8 dB for air. Use a nice reverb and there you go. |

yeah, shame you cant tweak them much though.
but aside the negative, they are pretty decent sounding samples :) |

| I find The Grand to be the best sounding Piano of them all. |

| I don't know about vsts , but PSP Piano Verb works well on producing the damper pedal sound. I tried that with FL Keys , and thought it was pretty amazing. |

| On topic, I like the piano sound in William Orbit's "Water On A Vine Leaf," which is that sort of bright piano mentioned by the OP. Wonder what he used back in 1993 when that track was made. |

There are also some nice piano samples to be found in Hypersonic 2 - I use it often for piano's.
Some good soundfonts can also be helpful... But real good ones are hard to come by. |
