Description

A realistic and usable piano soundboard that can be adjusted as desired, thanks to the few but very useful controls available that can be used as a creative and unique reverb system.

The device relies on the physical model of a string, the waveguide introduced by Karplus and Strong. The Pianerb provides as many strings as the piano, including double strings etc, I/O equalization and a resonance system that emulates the material and size of the piano body.

In a nutshell, Pianerb emulates the piano soundboard when sound passes through the strings, so it just works as a reverb in which you can play with age, body and strings!

CONTROLS

Damping : decay time, emulates the damping of individual strings.

Age : detune the second string of the single note, creating an old piano effect.

Body : amount of filtering due to the body of the instrument.

Size : size of the instrument body, modulates resonance frequencies.

LP : input Lowpass Filter (12dB/oct).

HP : input Hipass Filter (12dB/oct).

Dry Wet : amount of dry or wet signal.

Keyboard : choose which string to excite.
