Topic: Dreamy 2 (the fantastic upright piano U4 Tall)

I like this sound, upright piano. Don't know why people don't use it more. Can't find it here.

My second Dreamy piece, Dreamy 2, with upright piano U4 Tall. I like using this piano as a contrast to all Grand pianos from Modartt. To me it sounds as a real upright, the same feeling I had 1971 with an upright piano when I tried to accompany the children's song in school.

It's interesting how you like a certain piano model and then suddenly remember one that you liked before, and then go back to it. Nice with many good models. Bluthner, U4, Steingraeber, Steinway, Petrof Mistral - and now again U4 Tall

There is no Edit button so I Reply to myself:

This information was lost for some reason while uploading,

Modified U4 Tall preset:

Impedance 1.24   Condition 0.10   Output level (volym)  -9.6dB  Output level increased in Mac mini Garageband in track output.

Nowadays I always reduce the output level, I think there is the possibility of better sound and greater opportunity to vary the volume when playing, to play nuanced. At least it feels that way

Best wishes,
