Chapter 1 - Programming Ultra-Realistic Pianos [Tutorial]

[@anupjsebastian]

Hey man, This series is really awesome. Hopefully you find the time to continue it and share your knowledge. Thanks for what you have put out so far anyway.

[@erwickdsouza]

Already finished shooting two. Lining them up

[@mastercnn1222]

Thanks for the tutorial! This is much harder than I thought it would be

[@erwickdsouza]

Practise, practise, practise!

[@kortschagin]

Nice Work. 👍👍

[@wildcardkappa]

I'm sampling Prelude in C Major by Bach and it was sounding a lil boring. This was a big help, it sounds beautiful now

[@EdsMusic]

Thanks for the good tips

[@TruthDefender]

Pretty impressive

[@parikshitmusic510]

The left of is called the soft pedal which shifts the wires so that one one wire left for the hammer which creates a soft sound Idk the name of the middle one but pushing that one after hitting a chord puts those chords in exception so that they won't damp while the other keys would be the their normal state

[@erwickdsouza]

That is true for my piano as well, but is this true for all pianos?

[@parikshitmusic510]

Not an expert but for a grand piano... yes

[@iAmDislikingEveryShort]

Sustonuto, soft, sustain.. Soft pedal shifts the hammers sideways so they hit only one string Or two per note hence the soft sound.. Sustonuto pedal works when you play a note and while holding that note hold the sustonuto pedal and release the key this will only sustain that particular note while other notes will work normal

[@ravirana2001]

Wowwww this awesome bhai please more tutorials like this.

[@vishyonkeys]

Love it!

[@TusharSatdeve]

wow... so informative and well explained !! Impressed !! eagerly waiting for next releases !! :D :D ..

[@DwayneKBeats]

That tempo automation is hard as fuck dude. amazing haha.

[@machinel2148]

this is crazy, man

[@gopzz3598]

Interesting buddy!

[@NathanEllery]

The problem with stretching the notes is you mess up the notation if that is ever going to be used. I think it's better to use a sustain pedal via controller and keep your music cleaner. Probably for most of your audience they are never intending to publish music notation but for the few that might it would be a better option. I've set some but with the bottom sustained note (similar to your example) as a whole note (whole bar) but reviewing Fur Elise and other pieces of music where the bottom note and more is sustained by the pedal, they simply note the first note as a crochet or quaver etc and leave it to the pedal. An additional benefit might be that many of the recent piano VST's is that they have additional sounds of the pedal noise to add to the realism that would be triggered by the same controller. But hey, your result sounds convincing. Subscribed.

[@erwickdsouza]

SUre, but as I rarly play the keys that introduces more problems than it solves for me

[@Fiveash-Art]

@@erwickdsouza Yes, I was watching a video about programming realistic keys and he also used the sustain pedal option in automation I believe ... It seemed to be just as convenient a solution as dragging the keys out. It seemed to be just as easy of a process as what you also did with your tempo variations.

Great content! Thank you for your work!

[@francescoscanu6957]

Great video but as a pianist that velocity going up and down linearly is not close to reality, when you play the piano the effort is concentrated alternately in the beats and in the accented notes, usually in the first and third beats, also in the video you were inspired by it was played a little robotically not very well

[@erwickdsouza]

As a (meh) pianist myself, I agree. For the sake of brevity and simplicity, I kept the video concise and did not go into too much detail.

[@Toonces74]

Great video, thanks!

[@erwickdsouza]

My pleasure

[@MdIlias]

I dont know why you are havving less subscribers. Loved your contents ❤️❤️❤️ take love 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

great video!!! :)

[@isaacnjeru1694]

Great content. But for the first 2 minutes thought he meant real estate pianos

[@erwickdsouza]

ROFL, lost in translation

[@PianoKing1]

You Got A New Subscriber 😊🤗 Please Tell Me How To Make Particles Video With the Help Of Synthesia🙏🙏🙏

[@erwickdsouza]

It's not something I use, so I don't really know

[@starboyrob]

just stumbled upon god tier youtube at 4:30 in the morning

[@leemarcummusic1445]

how did you make those velocity stair steps? thanks

[@erwickdsouza]

Right-click on the velocity window and drag

[@ivanduarte2113]

hey dude amazing video, do you know how to apply this techniques on reaper?

[@Heselbine]

Helpful...thank you

[@DidoInFlames]

How to add sustain in fl studio to kontakt noire? Also if i longate the notes do i need sustain ?

[@PianoKing1]

Starting From Daw To Synthesia🙏🙏🙏

[@eforbes8558]

That was exactly what I needed!! If you have a little time, I would be interested in how you make it even more realistic. BTW what piano plugin do you recommend? I am looking to purchase one.

[@NewMateo]

Lately Ive been using keyzone classic. Its free and not bad. Also that piano from spitfire audio (also free)

[@erwickdsouza]

Keyzone Classic.

[@dominatingtrend5872]

if i use automation clip in piano then it will affect other instrument too rght? wont they

[@erwickdsouza]

Absolutely not! Automation only affects the affected parameter of the concerned plug-in

[@excellentexcellent1292]

what software did u use sir?

[@erwickdsouza]

FL Studio

[@PianoKing1]

In This Video You Are Using Fl Studio???????? Plz Tell

[@erwickdsouza]

Yup

[@LeVi-kt3ji]

No chapter 2? It shows the video isn't available '-'

[@erwickdsouza]

Let me check that for you

[@erwickdsouza]

My apologies, I fixed it for you. Thanks for letting me know :)

[@Alouette_EXE]

That is really time-consuming. There is really a way to actually automate a sustain pedal by using Midi Out.

[@erwickdsouza]

I am aware. I just don't like it.

[@ravirana2001]

Bhai chords and harmonies for non music theory people. 🙏

[@erwickdsouza]

Yeah, what gave it away?

[@lincelukose4683]

Nice brother It was good is it possible that we can replicate a standard Grand Piano sound in SYTRUS, not the one like in the preset. It may take very long for me to figure it out but it will take very less for you to do the same looking forward to it

[@Heafyshiu]

Time travel. 😂

[@hoppyroo110]

To really nail the sound of the youtube video, I think all you needed to do was run your final through something like a concert hall reverb and probably maximus... :) ( otherwise, pretty &^%$ close... )
