Topic: Any insights on Output Parameter Wall distance?

Hi,

in Parameter Freeze - Ouput section is a parameter "Wall distance".

I assume it's about the distance of a piano's back from a wall (Uprights only?).

Is this correct?

How does this parameter work exactly?

I use Pteq Pro and so far i couldn't figure out where / how to set up "Wall distance".

Only the upright U4 has a back wall that you can see and move in the Sound Recording section. Of course you need to have the U4 to use it.

From what I have seen about studio piano recordings, perhaps one is needed to record a grand piano as well.

Pianoteq 8 Studio Bundle, Pearl malletSTATION EM1, Roland (DRUM SOUND MODULE TD-30, HandSonic 10, AX-1), Akai EWI USB, Yamaha DIGITAL PIANO P-95, M-Audio STUDIOPHILE BX5, Focusrite Saffire PRO 24 DSP.

Yes, even when recording in a concert hall (no audience) pianos are often pushed closer to the back wall for quicker early reflections.
