Indeed, I am not a professional pianist, and unable to play all that without bug!<br />Then, I also tweaked the original piano sound quite a bit, to make it plausible with a vocal/piano configuration: it is inserted into a fairly generous auditorium reverb, based on a Boston M7 tweak under Reverberate. It&#039;s the same reverb for the voice elsewhere, but with a slightly less strong dosage, to try to play on the relative depth of field between voice and piano.<br />At the level of the VSTi Pianoteq, I equalized a little to densify the medium, a piano that is therefore a little darker than a typical norm for solo piano but which works for my taste in the very slightly distanced role.<br />Finally, at the Master level, the addition of a compressor that I really like, Softube CL1B, barely wiggling.<br />Downsampling 88/24 &gt; 16/44.1 dithering, and<br />Upgrade for Youtube LUFS standard (here -1 peak and -18 LUFSi)<br />For the video, these are some of my photos arranged under Da vinci Resolve.</p><p>Here it is to be complete...</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello. I have been using Pianoteq with pleasure for many years. I&#039;m on version 7.</p><p>I look forward to discovering your posts, and in the meantime, here is my latest experience with this magnificent tool:<br />Melody by Duparc. I sing in Re recording after recording the piano.<br />I use several tools, knowing that the recording is done in my office, converted into a home studio. (M7 type reverbs, some compressors to control the dynamics). The voice is taken in MS with a mixture of the classic AKG414 XLS for the mid and a bi-directional tube microphone for the side (RTII).<br />Do not hesitate for any comment or advice. I&#039;ll take it !</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRHBkv0e9kQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRHBkv0e9kQ</a></p><p>(I don&#039;t know how to post the Youtube link directly in the forum interface).</p>]]></description>
