Galaxy Instruments has released Galaxy Vintage D, a virtual grand piano that is based on samples of Bauer Studios famous 1920 Steinway D, which has served for legendary recordings. This exceptional Steinway concert grand was built in 1920 in Hamburg in the German factory of Steinway & Sons. Over the last 90 years it has achieved a deep and intimate character and a beautiful singing tone.
Some of the best pianists have recorded legendary albums on this instrument, among them Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, Carla Bley, Guillermo and Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Abdullah Ibrahim, Wolfgang Dauner, John Taylor and many others. Richie Beirach called it the best piano in the world.
"Legends" like Neumann U47 and KM53 Mikrophones ,old Siemens Tube-Preamps or the Neve Console at the Bauer Studios were used to capture the individual warm sounding expression of this exceptinal instrument.
