NOIRE walkthrough | Native Instruments

[@ProductionMusicLive]

Wow, are you kidding me. That abstract cloud filling particles tool sounds wonderful! The whole instrument sounds absolutely fantastic!

[@lapointdaniel]

Frahm is a gift in so many avenues.

[@RaphaelRippinger]

NOIRE is the only piano you'd ever want! NOIRE is more playable than any real piano... At any time you have full control over the sound, from softest to hardest. The magic of NOIRE lies in the fact that the sampling has been done in such a way that "the soul" of the instrument and its whole versatility comes with it. I cannot explain any other way that playing NOIRE has triggered so many new ideas and is so full of inspiration... that I have never before experienced from a sampled piano. Thanks Nils Frahm for sharing your sound with us and thanks for the incredible work done in catching this piano's truly inspiring soul.

[@iamnaudar]

I can only agree with that, Noire is one of the best piano out there imo, as you said they managed to truly catch the soul of the insutrment. The sympathetic resonance and overtones are also great features that plays a role in the authenticity of the sound

[@valorf666]

We need Native Instruments to record a Bosendorfer 280 vc, nobody else can capture the mellow soft tones of the piano as Native Instruments captured them with Noire. PLEASE NI record a Bosendorfer

[@franktuson7803]

Not just an incredible product, this walkthrough video was superb. Well done to the unsung production team!

[@The_Penny_Seventeens]

The vintage setting with record static is amazing I get so many people ask me what I am using, Noir has so much more under the hood… I love Noir thanks you all for this magical gift to my music production 🎼🎼🎼

[@lankast2401]

the BEST for any soft music. Period.

[@LetsLiveOurLives]

Just bought it, the particle feature is an absolute game changer.

[@EdVizenor]

Would you still recommend it? Would you say this is your best go to piano?

[@Espo1438]

That is exactly why I bought it! Amazing!!!

[@menhardandre]

@@EdVizenor Yes 2024 its still the best for me

[@pashtet_dev]

This is the most perfect sound!! Superbly!

[@jacobsmith1877]

Amazing. I'm glad to see NI still pushing boundaries

[@MrMatthewKerr]

i've been listening back and forth between 1928 steinway, Noire and fazioli grand. This is just a masterpiece. Now on at half price. I will make a purchase thanks to this perfect demonstration video. I'm so excited to start playing a bit more.

[@NativeInstruments]

Glad we could help you figuring that out 💪

[@EngoneEndong]

This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I’m crying!! 😭

[@allot77]

years later and after having passed through practically all the virtual pianos on the market, Noire, remains the only one that really allows me to express myself exactly as I want. Really thank you for this great product. Keep it up

[@lymansn]

Wow, I just bought NI Komplete Ultimate 12. I thought I was finished for a while. I am definitely going to save my money for this. I am addicted to Native Instruments. i can't stop buying their stuff. They keep blowing my mind.Great composition! What a great demo!

[@Drfresh1402]

Have you seen the new cremona quartet? If not, don’t look. You will end up spending a lot of money for Komplete 13 collectors edition.

[@lymansn]

@@Drfresh1402 Thanks for the heads up. What the? I can't believe how amazing these samples are getting. That is absolutely incredible.

[@TheAerovons]

That is just a stunning piece of music, good grief. Haunting.

[@jojomk2287]

This piano with these particles are so beautifulll thanks NI for your hard-work

[@hasznoneother]

My God!!! What an incredible instrument...beautiful creation..NI you guys...astound me continuously!

[@StreetsOfVancouverChannel]

My teary eyes concur that making this instrument was brilliant in a number of regard... especially that sublime particles engine.

[@WAMProducties]

Quite a revolutionary virtual piano!

[@gianluigidautilia6417]

mood is magic, it brings me to tears.

[@herbytube2006]

cant stop watching this again n again...I like the pad transition and the sub ability most and those clouds.... i have no words GREAT.

[@ScottLRoyal]

So glad I bought a copy of this. Though I will never do it justice, I love the sound of NOIRE.

[@mike_qbik]

This is just epic. Year later, still jaw dropping, eye popping, ears in bliss ;-)

[@ЯрославПопов-в9д]

O, God! What the cool sound!!! Excellent! Watching with opened mouth

[@tanukijessica]

Loving the particles feature!

[@naturalwhitenoisesoundsfor6836]

You are suck girl

[@albinomauren]

@@naturalwhitenoisesoundsfor6836 What the fuck is your problem guy

[@DidoInFlames]

Noire is amazing piano VST and that music in the video is incredible

[@JoseGarcia-vk7hm]

Song is like Interestelar v1.1. Sound beautiful.

[@Saeedathar]

Using noire since a few months .. this is all you need for an amazing piano

[@mybiggrin]

This is so innovative. I thought it was just going to be a simple jazz piano, which it can be. But I'm in love.

[@BattleAngelSound]

Very creative use of granular synthesis. Also Piano sound is gorgeous. Awesome job!

[@christiankramer1853]

i'm a big fan of this Piano in even in pure without any experimental features.

[@chelseyjoymusic]

That particles engine is amazing. That feature is exactly what I have been wanting in my music! Thank you! Gives off an Ólafur Arnalds vibe.

[@slimyelow]

No coincidence that Carlos Rafael Rivera chose this Library which was recorded in Berlin to score The Queen's Gambit, which was also filmed there. Even the walls in the plugin match the decor from the 1960s era captured so beautifully in the film.

[@MoDYKGM]

🤗OMG🤗 OMG🤗 6:45 BASS & SUB ( NOIRE THE BEST ) It is the best in all the coming years will remain the best This is really a tiring and exhausting job for team. The team thank you very much for this effort, real creativity Thanks [ Native Instruments ] for Everything !

[@DavidChello]

Loving this...Awesome stuff, who would have imagined in Mozart's time, all this would be possible?! Really exciting to think what can be done with sound, now, let alone 50 years from now! Thank you for this inspiring video and enjoyed listening to the fruit of your labors, all those who made this new instrument and video possible.

[@samuelarba6695]

Better than Keyscape, better than Pianoteq. Very inspiring aleatoric cloud! More velocities and easy to calibrate. Insane bass sub. Affordable price. Thank you Native Instruments!

[@lukaseisenmann9912]

This sounds so incredible nice!!

[@vadimmartynyuk]

Now this is some real virtual piano innovation!

[@trceb]

Just bought this, sooooo good. Best money I ever spent on a AU.

[@andrelefebvre5453]

This brings me to tears... Wow...

[@Yertaiofficial]

So beautiful background melody! I love Noire library!

[@JayEmII]

Vielen Dank, Uli! Die Einführung ist fantastisch. Sehr klar, motivierend und für jeden Auditiven ein Genuss der Extraklasse.

[@CyrilleBoucanogh]

The Best sounding VST piano on Planet!

[@stephanehoreczko]

Amazing, many thanks Nils!

[@jefskott99]

Fantastic instrument! I've owned Noire for awhile now through the Komplete Ultimate collection but I had no idea about the sounds that you could pull out of it through the particle engine. Just gorgeous, and very playable. Thanks for showing me more of what the instrument can cover. Just wonderful.

[@jimshannononsounds]

My piano pallet appreciation just went through the roof. Amazing

[@jeremyhollobon1723]

Goddamn. I thought I would never need or want another virtual piano. I thought that Una Corda was as good as it gets. I stand corrected.

[@jneiberger]

Dude, same here. I have a couple of piano VSTs that I really like for "normal" piano sounds, and Una Corda is awesome for a more ambient piano. But this looks freaking amazing and sounds like the piano VST I've been searching for.

[@FrantzesElzaurdia]

@@jneiberger keyscape is the best I've ever heard

[@jneiberger]

@@FrantzesElzaurdia Oh, yeah, Keyscape sounds amazing. I've been very tempted to get it just for the piano.

[@FrantzesElzaurdia]

@@jneiberger I can't remember if there is a demo on the spectrasonics website but you should definitely try it out.

[@KevinThomTheOriginal]

Haha I said out loud "GOD DAMMIT!" as soon as they got to the Particles Engine part because I knew I'm going to have to give even more of my money to NI!

[@RinaldoJonathan]

8:30 just in case I came back to this masterpiece.

[@miscellanyman263]

The Noire Piano library is luscious, pristine, aleatoric and cinematic, all bundled into one.

[@sargelester7351]

Truly resonating experience, I'm down!!

[@prod.hellful9428]

$150 for this beauty is an absolute steal

[@SoundmanCH]

I absolutely adore this virtual piano!

[@Kolinu2]

Wonderful track and a very clever concept. Sounds amazing.

[@MrAuhue]

The best i ever see and hear... its looking so easy... i think i get this very soon

[@AKIRABattlefront2]

sanane keyscape is better

[@JBrm]

​@@AKIRABattlefront2 Are you sure? I own Keyscape and the demos so far sound like NI blows Spectrasonic away this time. Never got such a fully sound out of Keyscape.

[@MrAuhue]

But this works just with kontrol keyboard 88 and 999bugs! Thats a lot of money :( Why its not compatible with the smaler controls for 300 bugs :(

[@MrSkylenet]

I own keyscape, but I am seriously considering getting NOIR... It's not the same philosophy. Keyscape is more complet, Noire, more creative... But keyscape + omnisphere = no boundaries...

[@IamDB3]

I just purchased the ultimate 13 collectors addition. OMG Unbelievable!!! So worth 1,750! Just make sure you have 2 terabytes or more space. Brilliant!

[@ternitamas]

now we don't need guitars anymore haha we can get that strummy and rhythmic sound from a piano with the brush and pluck presets. as a piano player I'm thrilled with that =)

[@BasilJoseOfficial]

At first I thought this was Hans Zimmer's "Behind the Scenes" interview. That "Particle Feature" is absolutely breathtaking! I am going to buy this straightaway.

[@Musician_Robert]

Beautiful sounding piano and superb musicianship in that piece. Wow!

[@Dominik-K]

This product is amazing! Such a great piano vst! And honestly I'd love to just listen to this track alone, it's amazing. Convinced me to buy the bundle.

[@NativeInstruments]

Glad you enjoyed Noire, more to come 😉

[@richardpenrose1968]

This is my go to piano library despite having many more expensive and considerably larger libraries apart from the times I need Una Corda for classical work. Please could you update this library to have some form of Una Corda please!? Some companies have successfully achieved Una Corda with modelling if you didn’t sample this during the session. I would gladly pay for this to be added in an update!!

[@LISOUND]

Agreeing with Jeremy here, dind't think I wanted yet another piano. HOLY CRAP this expansion is amazing. NI does it again.

[@exa11762]

My God. This is beyond VSTs that I know. Great. I have to get this.

[@Ans12237]

Well now I am gonna buy it, just because this video was so inspirational and well done..

[@robibotos]

This sounds, feels incredible & inspiring. Warm...and the overtones...WOW Thank you NI and Nils Frahm

[@maikmueller]

For a second I thought it's Hans Zimmer talking. 😉 Great instrument!👍🏻

[@Ibantar]

Sounds like him!

[@andreasgajewski]

lol not even close

[@crazyjack2592]

Hans has a much deeper voice =)

[@RudolfDiesel_III]

Maybe because they are both german with a little bit of german accent

[@51Daedalus]

Its Werner Herzog! :P

[@SamprasZoom18]

This is my favorite piano virtual instruments out of everything Native Instruments has available. What is the name of the music piece played in the beginning? I would love to have that midi file to play with Noire! Thank you so much to the technicians, engineers, and producers that made Noire possible.

Que sepa todo el mundo que éste sigue siendo el mejor piano virtual creado hasta la actualidad (a mi parecer).

[@pablitoc548]

creo que piano "virtual" no es el nombre adecuado ya que no es una simulacion echa de algo ajeno al piano , es un piano real sampleado para usarse como plugin

[@phalcon23]

I just turned 40, Bought my first keyboard. Novation SLMK3, didn't know about NI at the time... But just caught the summer sale today. Got the Selcted with the Komplet upgrade, and this instrument was in it. Wow... Such inspiring sounds, gets you right in the emotions. Which is what music should do. I can't wait until I get better at playing so I can truly enjoy this instrument! Abd maybe I'll save up for the NI-88 keyboard in a couple of years :)

[@riktascale4]

Beautiful piece and presentation. Helpful.

[@sigrid714]

Got this Noire Piano powering my old 1994 Yamaha Clavinova now.

[@IceCream-ey2kg]

I LOVE THIS. Just bought it since it was on sale

[@sebo3933]

Just got noire and I love it! Particles engine and sounds are amazing. Still 16 GB of presets and controls to explore 🤣

[@TiagoNugentComposer]

The particles engine reminds me of Ólafur Arnalds’ player pianos, I love it!

[@slowburnermusic]

I also thought the same thing!

[@clivesaunders5576]

NI does it again!

[@gavote]

Wow. I thought I wouldn't need another piano. But I will definitely get it this afternoon, as soon as I have time.

[@LighthalzenSS]

I still hope that one day they will launch a Cathedral Pipe Organ!

[@j.t2548]

Yes! and hammonds and rhodes and stuff

[@LighthalzenSS]

@@j.t2548 Native Intruments already have Vintage Organs (Hammond & Farfisa) but I think it need interface update or make the ".nki" presets has sceenshots, for Rhodes I use Classic EP 88s it's from Scarbee but work with NI!

[@JoeyWillenbucher]

J. T check out Vintage Organs and Scarbee Vintage Keys

[@citizenworld8094]

There is still no competition to Hauptwerk which is clunky and off-putting even though they have the best samples. There is a market there for sure for NI.

[@melvin.anthony]

Amazing Work! You guys created something where the imagination of few might have ended!!

[@matthatmusic]

Wow! This is a must purchase. Thanks for the great plugins!

[@CustomAudioTV]

The last note (not the decaying one) in the song is like a whisper. Don't know if it's the key noise or something the plug-in does. It's awesome nevertheless, it greatly enhances the experience of the dynamics of this instrument. Really beautiful.

[@pianodude01]

Fantastic instrument. The sub bass sounds (recordings from below the piano) is my go to choice when I want to layer a nice bottom-that decays naturally-to any project. That’s just one feature.

[@musicphrase9183]

Great instrument, beautiful sound

[@NativeInstruments]

Many thanks!

[@jesusgst]

Gonna buy this on Friday 🥰 Love it!

[@musicmann1967]

Awesome and creative, without sounding gimmicky. I dig it!

[@akhilpatil65]

To me this is One of the Best Library after Una Corda

[@BartekEVH]

Amazing Piano!!!!!

[@rvallozzi]

You guys are amazing

[@adamnolanofficial1406]

Whats the name of this tune? So amazing

[@stillvisionsmusic]

Una Corda is my favorite piano sound and this might displace it; I’d buy it right now but I’m on the Komplete Ultimate train. I’ll have to wait sadly.

[@Lenron-B06]

Yeah that's why I wait as well.

[@jr.elwood9326]

Wow, this sounds amazing. NI is pushing the boundaries again. Great job!

[@danielmesanunez]

Majestuoso, Brutal

[@thecaffineman]

Thank you for pronouncing 'Noire' correctly! xxx

[@WillayG]

Native Instruments sure knows how to make me take out my credit card. This just sounds beautiful.

[@RabihRihana]

Amazing sounding piano. Funnily enough, i'm not using the particles engine much because i'm captivated by the sound of the piano itself. I can basically call the "Pianoforte" preset and compose a whole album with it. Thank you for this piano.

[@danieltoussaintambiantguit6480]

vraiment inspirant ce Noire !

[@dman030]

wow, you guys did a lot more than i imagined. thought it wouldnt be much different than una corda. nice job guys. and i learned a new technique today, "aleatoric". i just hope that you will update native access so i can delete older unused stuff easily (without deleting everything and starting over) and update to some of the newer stuff you guys are making. you know, drive space becomes an issue with time. i mentioned it before on the message boards, but they get a lot of requests.

[@Lenron-B06]

I hope for the same thing. Actually I hope they end up doing some work on the need of access app. It really needs it.

[@JoelEmmanuelMusic]

Holy moley... up until today I used Ravenscroft and though it isn't perfect, it was the nicest (affordable) grand I had owned. I have always loved the sound of Yamaha pianos and today my dream came true. This piano is amazing! The level of detail in the sampling is just sweet. I don't even need a reverb on it to get it to sparkle, just turning up the resonance slider is enough. I've been playing it for an hour, and its worth more than $200AU. This definitely wins over the RC275. I'd even go as far as saying it sounds far nicer than the Montage and new CP pianos.

[@epicon6]

The narrators voice is just as amazing as the piano.

[@StephenChapman]

Agreed. This entire demo feels like a work of sonic art, lol. Pure joy for the ears.

[@DJazium]

Ok I got it. So excited.

[@kingslaphappy1533]

Outstanding!
