Microphone Perspective:

Outside Microphones: Just outside the piano we used really expensive Neumann M149 modern tube microphones. The engineer called these the “Golden Sound” microphones. This microphone pair has a classy sound and a more balanced tone than the inside and hammer microphones.

 

***Note: We used an elite studio, Phase One Studios, with very expensive equipment to get such an amazing sound! We didn’t hold back! ***

FAQ:

What is the difference between Production Grand Compact and Production Grand 2?

Production Grand Compact only contains the Outside Tube microphone perspectives of Production Grand 2 LE with 16 bit 44.1 kHz samples. The full Production Grand 2 contains eight microphone perspectives and two additional sample rate options: 24 bit 44.1 kHz and 24 bit 96 kHz. These sample rate options give flexibility in live performance or audio production. Production Grand 2, compared to Production Grand Compact, was built with Native Instruments Kontakt in mind and takes full advance of Kontakt’s interface, controls, features etc. By contrast, Production Grand Compact has a straightforward interface for easy access to controls and loads quickly into the free Plogue sforzando player.

Production Grand Compact is essentially the Tube microphone perspective from Production Grand 2 LE.
