About the YAMAHA C7 CONSERVATORY Grand Piano<br />
The YAMAHA C7 is appearing on famous concert stages, international competitions and<br />
prestigious music events throughout the concert world.<br />
The <strong>Yamaha</strong> C Series grand piano is by far the most popular piano that is versatile<br />
enough for pop, jazz and rock recording, yet is arguably expressive enough for successful<br />
traditional and classical recordings. The 7-foot, 4-inch model is my favorite pop<br />
piano, with a bright tone, strong overtones and a moderately strong bass. You come<br />
across a lot of these pianos in recording studios around the world and you will find them<br />
to be very consistent. A well-maintained <strong>Yamaha</strong> C7 almost always produces satisfying<br />
recording and performing results.<br />
This library provides the greatest possible control during the softest pianissimo,<br />
through crescendos to the reserves of power needed for the loudest fortissimo. Utilizing<br />
new technology to optimise the mechanical performance of the action, <strong>Post</strong> <strong>Musical</strong><br />
<strong>Instruments</strong> has created a product which leaves the pianist in total control of dynamic<br />
response, timbre and touch. This library gives you the control over the exact position of<br />
the microphone perspective. You have both Close and Ambient mic’s and have the option<br />
to mix them to match the sound you want to create.<br />
The 7' 6" Concert Collection Grand Piano<br />
Permanent Crown Solid Soundboard<br />
<strong>Yamaha</strong> utilizes a process that creates a permanent crown in the soundboard and at the<br />
same time minimizes soundboard cracking.<br />
Solid Spruce Soundboard<br />
Solid spruce, rather than laminated spruce or poplar, is used for the best amplification of<br />
sound, best tone and sustain.<br />
3<br />
Full length Ribs<br />
<strong>Yamaha</strong> reinforces the crown in its soundboards by using ribs that continue to the edge<br />
of the soundboard, and are glued into the notched liner (or inner rim on the grand piano).
V-Pro Plate<br />
<strong>Yamaha</strong> uses V-Pro (Vacuum Shield Mold Process) in casting the<br />
iron frame (plate).<br />
Balanced Action<br />
Each key of a <strong>Yamaha</strong> piano is individually tested and measured<br />
for the corrections needed to obtain uniform "down weight" pressure.<br />
Uniform Key Travel<br />
<strong>Yamaha</strong> designs all grand and vertical pianos to have the same<br />
key travel.<br />
Spruce Keys<br />
<strong>Yamaha</strong> uses Spruce for the keys. Spruce is very light and possesses<br />
a very high ratio of strength to weight.<br />

Recording concepts<br />
When we planned this library we faced the next concept:<br />
- Choice of close and distant micing. We wanted to record a grand piano with both techniques<br />
to satisfy both camps and ensure that the sample would have enough brilliance<br />
or natural ambience for its specific application.<br />
- As many velocity levels as possible. In order to achieve a smooth response over the<br />
whole keyboard we wanted as many velocity layers as possible.<br />
- Pedal down and pedal up samples.<br />
- Reverberating release samples – if possible we wanted to record the piano in a concert<br />
hall.<br />
- Above all, a full bodied, consistent, well maintained instrument. One of the biggest<br />
strengths with any sampled grand piano is the regularity across the keyboard, the absolute<br />
right tuning and the level of maintenance.<br />
We wanted a crystal clear recording. … a highly accurate reproduction of the sound of<br />
the more distant air (where the overtones "mingle") and vibrating wood that create much<br />
of the timbre.<br />
About the recording<br />
A concert grand piano is among the largest and most versatile acoustical instruments in<br />
the world. Capturing the natural timbre and the full dynamics of such an instrument is<br />
very complicated. Furthermore, the grand piano interacts with the room in which it is<br />
placed and the recording method requires independent consideration in each situation<br />
and each location. Even how it is played will influence the choice of microphone technique.<br />
4<br />
The room acoustics are such an important factor when recording a concert grand piano,<br />
that it is important to assess whether the room will do justice to the instrument or not. A<br />
concert grand piano is build for playing in concert halls where the reverberation times<br />
normally are acoustically tuned between 0,9 seconds to 1,3 seconds at 500 Hz and the
oom volume is minimum10.000 cubic meters. Concert halls specially designed for playing<br />
Wagner can even have reverberation times around 2 seconds. With the lid open, the<br />
concert grand piano is capable of giving a full musical experience to the audience<br />
throughout the hall. This must be taken into account when recording in a recording<br />
studio. Finding a good location with a well tuned grand piano is the first thing to do -<br />
and the hardest. When you listen to a piano in a concert setting the hearing distance is<br />
much larger and the overall reflections of the concert hall have added up and summed<br />
the individual frequence radiations to a certain mixed sound picture. This is mainly a<br />
positive picture. Listening to famous concert halls learns that each hall has its own characteristics<br />
in frequency response and total impression. When you place a microphone in<br />
a typical concert hall position (12 meters or more from the source) the signal to noise<br />
ratio will become un-usable for sampling.<br />
The choice of recording method also depends on the repertoire to be played. Classical<br />
piano music deserves a natural blend of ambience, but different composers all have their<br />
own characteristics which leave more or less space for the ambience to influence the<br />
music. Many a record producer and sound engineer has added his own interpretation of<br />
the grand masters' notes while immortalizing their compositions through a pair of microphones.<br />
Rhythmic music and jazz traditionally are played in different types of locations.<br />
Therefore the listener's expectations of the timbre and the ambiance are somewhat<br />
different. In many cases, it was the composer's intention that his work be replayed<br />
on a hi-fi system in the home environment. The room acoustic of the location in which<br />
the jazz piano has been recorded is therefore judged by different and possibly less critical<br />
criteria, but, to give the grand piano its unique timbre, the recording still needs to<br />
convey a sense of location. This will furthermore give the listener a sensation that will<br />
bring him to the edge of his chair, so to speak.<br />
Classical piano music and A-B stereo<br />
When recording classical piano music, the finest results come out of two omnidirectional<br />
microphones in an A-B stereo setup in front of the grand piano. The A-B stereo pair is<br />
placed on the side of the piano to give the listener an illusion of being a part of the audience.<br />
By adjusting the distance to the piano and the exact placement next to the piano,<br />
the amount of ambience and the timbre of the instrument can be tuned. Placements<br />
around the mid of the piano 1 to 2 meters away are often preferred. The microphones<br />
are normally spaced between 40 to 60 cm and the stereo image is adjusted, so the pianist<br />
is to the left, of course. The height of the stereo boom is quite low, 1.2 m to 1.5 m<br />
above the boundary on which the piano is placed. By pointing the microphones to the<br />
open lid of the piano, the sound reflecting on the inner side of the lid will be brightened<br />
up and a beautiful depth will be added to the recording.<br />
Classical piano and X-Y stereo<br />
When recording classical piano music, the second best<br />
method is the use of two directional microphones in an<br />
YX-Y stereo setup in front of the grand piano. The X-Y<br />
stereo pair is placed on the side of the piano and gives the<br />
listener an illusion of the piano nearby. Again, by adjusting<br />
the distance to the piano and the exact placement<br />
next to the piano, the amount of ambience and the timbre<br />
of the instrument can be tuned. Placements around the<br />
mid of the piano closer than 1 meter to the instrument are<br />
often preferred. By pointing the microphones to the open<br />
lid of the piano, the sound reflecting on the inner side of<br />
the lid will be brightened up and a beautiful depth will be<br />
added to the recording.<br />
5<br />
Please note that the sound pressure level inside a concert<br />
grand piano can exceed 130 dB SPL peak 20 cm over the<br />
strings. So special care is needed when choosing microphone<br />
types.
This <strong>Yamaha</strong> C7 grand piano has been recorded in a typical pop recording studio with<br />
both techniques. The sound recorded with the A-B stereo technique has a stronger<br />
sense of location which can be perfect for some kinds of music but very disturbing for<br />
others. The sound recorded with the X-Y stereo technique is very dry and is perfect for<br />
in situations where you want an intimate piano sound. The best of both worlds!<br />
The recording<br />
All microphones were connected to a Digidesign PRE<br />
and and sampled at 96 kHz to ensure a clear sound<br />
path. The recording took place on a ProTools HD system.<br />
All microphones were kept on separate tracks.<br />
The microphones used were B&K 4000’s series. Processing<br />
included WAVES effect processors.<br />
About the tuning of the Piano: Inharmonicity<br />
Acoustically, a note perceived to have a distinct pitch contains frequency components<br />
that are integer multiples of f0 usually known as harmonics. Each harmonic is a sine<br />
wave and since the hearing system analyses sounds in terms of their frequency components<br />
it turns out to be highly instructive in terms of understanding how to analyse and<br />
synthesise periodic sounds, as well as being central to the development of Western musical<br />
harmony to consider the musical relationship between the individual harmonics<br />
themselves. The frequency ratios of the harmonic series are known (see Table 1) and<br />
their equivalent musical intervals, frequency ratios and staff notation in the key of C are<br />
shown in the table below for the first ten harmonics. The musical intervals (apart from<br />
the octave) are only approximated on a modern keyboard due to the tuning system<br />
used.<br />
Table 1 The relationship between overtone series, harmonic series and fundamental frequency for the<br />
first ten components of a period waveform.<br />
The musical intervals of adjacent harmonics in the natural harmonic series starting with<br />
the fundamental or first harmonic, illustrated on a musical stave and as notes on a keyboard<br />
in Table 2, are: octave (2:1), perfect fifth (3:2), perfect fourth (4:3), major third<br />
(5:4), minor third (6:5), flat minor third (7:6), sharp major second (8:7), a major whole<br />
tone (9:8), and a minor whole tone 00:9). The frequency ratios for intervals between<br />
non- adjacent harmonics in the series can also be inferred from the figure. For example,<br />
the musical interval between the fourth harmonic and the fundamental is two octaves<br />
and the frequency ratio is 4:1, equivalent to a doubling for each octave. Similarly the<br />
frequency ratio for three octaves is 8:1, and 6 for a twelfth (octave and a fifth) is 3:1.<br />
Intervals for other commonly used musical intervals can be found from these. To demonstrate<br />
this for a known result, the frequency ratio for a perfect fourth (4:3) can be<br />
found from that for a perfect fifth (3:2) since together they make one octave (2:1): C to G
(perfect fifth) and G to C (perfect fourth). The perfect fifth has a frequency ratio 3:2 and<br />
the octave a ratio of 2:1. Bearing in mind that musical intervals are ratios in terms of<br />
their frequency relationships and that any mathematical manipulation must therefore be<br />
carried out by means of division and multiplication, the ratio for a perfect fourth is that<br />
for an octave divided by that for a perfect fifth, or up one octave and down a fifth.<br />
Table 2 Frequency ratios and common musical intervals between the first ten harmonics of the natural<br />
harmonic series of C3 against a musical stave and keyboard.<br />
Sound source from a struck string<br />
When a stringed instrument is struck such as in a piano, the same relationship exists<br />
between the point at which the strike occurs and the modes that will be missing in the<br />
sound source. There is, however, an additional effect that is particularly marked in the<br />
piano to consider. Piano strings are very hard and they are under enormous tension<br />
compared with the strings on plucked instruments. When a piano string is stuck, it behaves<br />
partly like a bar because it is not completely flexible since it has some stiffness.<br />
This results in a slight raising in frequency of all the component modes with the effect<br />
being greater for the higher modes, resulting in the modes no longer being exact integer<br />
multiples of the fundamental mode. This effect, known as 'inharmonicity', varies as the<br />
square of the component mode (n2), or harmonic number, and as the fourth power of<br />
the string radius (R4). Thus for a particular string, the third mode is shifted nine times<br />
(32) as much as the first, or fundamental, mode, and a doubling in string radius increases<br />
inharmonicity by a factor of sixteen (24). The effect would therefore be considerably<br />
greater for bass strings if they were simply made thicker to give them greater mass, and<br />
in many stringed instruments, including pianos, guitars and violins, the bass strings are<br />
wrapped with wire to increase their mass without increasing their stiffness. The notes of<br />
a piano are usually tuned to equal temperament and octaves are then tuned by minimising<br />
the beats between pairs of notes an octave apart. When tuning two notes an octave<br />
apart, the components which give rise to the strongest sensation of beats are the first<br />
harmonic of the upper note and the second harmonic of the lower note. These are tuned<br />
in unison to minimise the beats between the notes. This results in the f0 of the lower<br />
note being slightly lower than half the to of the higher note due to the inharmonicity<br />
between the first and second components of the lower note.<br />
Inharmonicity on a piano increases as the strings become shorter and therefore the<br />
octave stretching effect increases with note pitch. The stretching effect is usually related<br />
to middle C and it becomes greater the further away the note of interest is in pitch.<br />
Figure 3 illustrates the effect in terms of the average deviation from equal-tempered<br />
tuning across the keyboard of a small piano. Thus high and low notes on the piano are<br />
tuned sharp and flat respectively to what they 7 would have been if all octaves were tuned<br />
pure with a frequency ratio of 2:1. From the Figure it can be seen that this stretching<br />
effect amounts to approximately 35 cents sharp at C8 and 35 cents flat at Cl with respect<br />
to middle C.
Figure 3 Approximate form of the average deviations from equal temperament due to inharmonicity in<br />
a small piano. Middle C marked with a spot.<br />
The tuning of the piano will also affect the tone of the instrument. If your sessions are<br />
orchestral, then the piano will need to be “stretch-tuned” more than for pop, jazz or<br />
rock sessions. In stretch-tuning, the lower notes are slightly flatter in relative pitch than<br />
the higher, sharper notes. This tuning method leans more closely to purer intervals than<br />
stricter “equal temperament” tuning. In equal temperament tuning, the intervals are less<br />
pure but more equally spaced. This makes an equal-tempered piano more in-tune with<br />
synths, samples, brass and woodwinds and is a more appropriate tuning method for<br />
pop, jazz and rock styles. Stretch-tuning has a more open, brighter sound than equal<br />
temperament, which somewhat compensates for the fact that pop pianos are typically<br />
much brighter overall.<br />
The piano was tuned according to the rules described in this section. The amount of<br />
harmonics found in this sample set is partly caused by the tuning.<br />

THE YAMAHA C7 PATCHES<br />
The provided instruments can be divided into 3 categories: CLOSE, AMBIENT & MIXED.<br />
The close and ambient samples were recorded in phase. You can freely mix these samples<br />
during playback or mixdown without any artefacts or phase cancellations. This gives<br />
you absolute control over the exact amount of ambience. The option to create your own<br />
balance between the two microphone perspectives is possible when both CLOSE and<br />
AMBIENT programs are loaded in your sampler application.<br />
CLOSE<br />
�� CLOSE C7 + sustain - The basic close miked patch. It uses 8 velocity layers with<br />
sustain pedal up and 8 velocity layers with the sustain pedal down. The samples<br />
were recorded from a short distance and have more presence and “ringing” sound.<br />
These samples may seem better for pop songs but in busy mixes with lots of instruments<br />
playing, they tend to get lost in the mix and the ambient samples are<br />
known to “cut trough the mix” better no matter what first impression they offer.<br />
That is because the CLOSE samples lack body and fundamentals. I suggest using<br />
the CLOSE samples with care and add them to the ambient samples to add realism<br />
and presence.<br />
�� CLOSE C7 16 pedal up or down* Same as above but these patches only use one set<br />
of sustain status samples. The are to intended to be used in situations where a full<br />
sound (pedal down) or thin sound (pedal up) is preferred.<br />
�� CLOSE C7 16 pedal up or down with release* Same as above patches but with the<br />
release samples. These patches have the release samples layers built-in. They need<br />
an extra stereo voice for the release triggered samples.<br />
�� CLOSE C7 realtime sustain* Same as basic CLOSE C7 + sustain but with an additional<br />
sustain pedal controlled crossfade between the sustain pedal up and sustain<br />
pedal down samples.<br />
�� RELEASE The release samples patch. Can be used for overdubs or when layering<br />
programs in multi-setup.<br />
* You can use the modulation wheel on your master keyboard to control the level of the<br />
release samples.<br />
AMBIENT<br />
�� AMBIENT C7 + sustain* Basic ambient patch. It uses 8 velocity layers with sustain<br />
pedal up and 8 velocity layers with the sustain pedal down.<br />
�� AMBIENT C7 + release (prog. Nr 2)* Same as parent patches but with release samples.<br />
�� AMBIENT C7 (prog. Nr 3)* Wet patch which has both release samples and separate<br />
sustain pedal up and down samples.<br />
*modulation wheel controls release time<br />
MIXED SETUPS<br />
The mixed setups are different for Giga and Kontakt. Please refer to the section involved.<br />
More programs will be announced with future updates.<br />
UPDATES<br />
Free updates are available for registered users on our company website<br />
www.postpiano.com where a guide can be found explaining how to install the updates.<br />
Your GRANDIOSO library will serve you for years, just like e real instrument. We will<br />
supply major upgrades (which need new DVD’s 10 or CD’s) when they become available at<br />
minimal costs.
Mixed setup in Giga<br />
You can load the GST performance file: ambient+close delay setting.gsp<br />
In case it does not work:<br />
- Load the CLOSE YAM C7 +sus in port 1 (midi ch 1) and route the outputs to mixer<br />
ch 1+2 (default).<br />
- Load the AMB C7 +Sus in port 2 (mid CH 1) and route the output to mixer ch 3+4<br />
(see picture)<br />
- Optional: load the release program in port 3 (midi ch 1) and route to mixer ch 5+6<br />
- LINK the midi ports<br />
You can now balance the two microphone perspectives in the GST mixer by simply using<br />
the DSP mixer faders.<br />
Additionally you can add a delay to the AMBient samples group, by inserting a NFX3<br />
Delay/Pan plug-in and use the settings as shown in the next picture. A typical 15 to 33<br />
ms delay (no feedback and no modulation) will make the perceived room much larger<br />
and is very realistic!<br />
12
MAPLE + GRANDIOSO FX<br />
To overcome the major shortcomings of GigaStudio<br />
we have developed a program called GRANDIOSO FX<br />
that works as a plug-in in a host software called<br />
Maple, both programs are written by Jeff Hurchella. In<br />
short they will add more dimensions to a Giga instrument<br />
enabling us to achieve more than the normal 32<br />
dimensions.<br />
In our case we made extra release layers that are<br />
played when Grandioso FX is activated. We have a<br />
patch called “ xxx Yam C7 realtime sustain Maple”<br />
which behaves just like a real grand piano: when you<br />
push the sustain pedal the resonance of the singing<br />
strings will gently mix with those of the non-struck<br />
resonating strings in the piano. Further we added the<br />
noise of the pedal being pressed down and released.<br />
All these effects can be switched off by using the<br />
bypass button in Maple.<br />
NOTE ON LEVELS IN GIGASTUDIO<br />
When the piano is used in a Gigastudio set-up as a solo instrument special care should<br />
be given to achieve the best possible level. The best level is the loudest possible level<br />
without causing clipping and distortion to the signal(*). You can use the level indicators<br />
in GigaStudio to see how your signal levels are. The PMI samples are recorded just -0.2<br />
dB below 0 dBFS and will easily cause a system to clip when played at maximum velocity<br />
and the DSP mixer fader above the -6dB position.<br />
* Note on the +6 dB<br />
The Giga editor gives you the option to add 6 dB gain to an instrument: in this instrument<br />
it was switched off. Switching it on is a useful feature when playing solo works. It<br />
works as following; the incoming velocity midi-data is augmented with 15 steps. So midi<br />
velocity of 60 will produce a sound as if it were played at 75.<br />
This may lead to unwanted side-effects:<br />
- the upper midi values (112 and above) have no effect, the level will not become louder.<br />
- the lowest velocity range (0-14) will also have 13 no effect, the level will stay equally soft.<br />
When the piano samples are used in orchestral or pop arrangements with a lot of other<br />
sampled instruments or when your situation calls for the use of the 0-15 and 112-127<br />
values you are advised to turn of the +6 dB tab as it will easily lead to distorting the<br />
output.
DYNAMICS<br />
The main patches have been designed using Fatar TP30 weighted hammer action keyboard<br />
mechanics, found in the SL1100 master keyboard. We have chosen to make velocity<br />
switching points at the next values for all octaves:<br />
16 layer 8 layer 4 layer<br />
PPPP 0 0 42<br />
PPPP to PPP 7<br />
PPP 15 15<br />
PPP to PP 23<br />
PP 31 34 77<br />
PP to P 39<br />
P 47 51<br />
P to MF 55<br />
MF 63 70 110<br />
MF to F 71<br />
F 79 88<br />
F to FF 87<br />
FF 95 103 127<br />
FF to FFF 103<br />
FFF 11 115<br />
FFFF 119<br />
You may want to adjust your keyboards velocity response to match these values. When<br />
you play melody lines around velocity value 70 to 80 they will sound at mf - f. If you<br />
want to have mf sound when lower velocity values you must adjust the velocity curve of<br />
the master keyboard to get a "softer" response. Alternatively you may want to open the<br />
instrument editor and lower the upper velocity boundaries.<br />
