Topic: Colors of the Wind (Bösendorfer VC Classical)

Me again w/ another recording -- this time I recorded "Colors of the Wind" using the Bösendorfer VC Classical preset. I must say that I've fallen in love with this new addition to Pianoteq!

SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/kerri-shotts/colors-of-the-wind

Performed on Yamaha NU1X; rendered with Pianoteq 8.3 w/ Bösendorfer VC Classical as the base preset in Logic Pro 11 (w/ reverb removed -- all other parameters on the preset are unchanged).

Logic mastering chain: ChromaVerb (Cathedral, 0% Attack, 75% Size, 70% Density, 3.5s Decay, 85% Dry, 15% Wet) -> Linear EQ (low cut) -> Compressor (Vintage VCA, -40db threshold, 1.4:1 ratio, 0db make up, 0.7 knee, 26ms attack, 48ms release, -12db auto gain) -> Adaptive Limiter (Soft limiter preset, -1db)

Cheers,
~Kerri

Pianoteq 8, Organteq 2, Yamaha NU1X, Yamaha P515

Re: Colors of the Wind (Bösendorfer VC Classical)

Such a beautiful rendition again. Your covers are good.
A music piece is just a music piece. Music is what you make it to be, and you just turned this into a beautiful piece, in your way. You make your covers to your own - I like that.
A soft intro, the great swell, forte, flow section 2,46 - 3,02, and a nice soft ending. I enjoyed this version too.
Thank you Kerri, so nice to have you on board Always waiting for next piece.

Best wishes,

Stig

P.S. Thank you Kerri for that ”O.M.G” and that  ”Jaw literally on the floor” about my hammond experiment with Organteq. That's the nicest, most beautiful, comment I've ever got.
As a special thank you, you get here an example with Orgtq + Modartt's guitar as well.
