Vertikal - The Piano Alternative!

There are so many sampled pianos on the market today and you as a musician have the benefit to be able to choose from the multitude of different brands and sounds.
Most, or nearly all, of the sampled pianos are great, wonderful grand pianos like Steinway's, Bosendorfer and other truly amazing instruments.
But, sometimes you need something different.
Let's face it, you wouldn't choose Pavarotti to sing rock and roll, would you?
Also, you probably would let Robert Plant sing "La Boheme"…..
Mind you, it probably would sound great in a way, but it's probably not what you're after!
Now, most of the sampled pianos on the market today are "Pavarotti's", but if you want a "Plant"-piano you don't have that many chooses, until now!

The Vertikal is a upright piano recorded and designed to do the job when you need that little extra "umpf" in your songs. It can be rock, blues, jazz, gospel or anything that needs the extra attitude. Shortly, when you need something not that "grand".

Vertikal Gigastudio 3 demo version

It's hard to in text explain what 32 velocity splits gives you in terms of dynamic and tactile playing, so therefor we provide you with a free Vedrtikal demo! The demo has all the C's plus two complete octaves so you can try it out for yourself. So get ready to experience something that you never heard before in any sampled piano!!! To keep size down a bit, the samples are cut off after 8 seconds.

Please note that even if this is a demo, the files are biiiiig! you probably need a fast connection. You'll need Gigastudio 3 since this version uses GiaPulse in some patches. Dowload all files, and unrar them. Then please read the instructions. Enjoy!
