That's the every preset of una corda?

[@ScottLawlor]

I love this piano, it's got such a nice intimate sound and when I got komplate last year, it was one of the first instruments i used to make an album with. it's not out yet, I'm still working on it.

[@BhashanaLiyanage]

So drop da link once ya completed bro

[@gettyfeet9119]

How bout now?

[@nathanang.]

I love the title cards with the preset names. It must have been a lot more work, but as a viewer I appreciate it!

[@NickoVasley]

That "On Air" preset is amazing. Though I just love this piano in general holy shit lmao. Playing with noise was good too..

[@goldenultra]

9:07 rainy dream. Never heard anything like that.

[@Nachtuil36]

Great demo: you are playing all the right moods for each preset. Suits these strange times as well ... I loved it !

[@rosewurkz]

Your melodies are so beautiful, wow 🌸

[@AndyThornalCo]

I never post comments…. Just had to say, Thanks. Beautiful and very helpful.

[@GregAllison]

Thanks Allen! I truly appreciate the kind words!

[@patch1753]

Duuude, Absolutely lovely. Great demo man!

[@GregAllison]

Thanks a ton!

[@nukeyourhouse]

These tones resonate in me hard.

[@courtneysmith5412]

Now I know why I just couldn’t fall asleep...I needed to end my day off with this. Just beautiful! Nils Frahm’s piano library as well as your playing. Absolutely beautiful! I’ll be glad when I can stream your full length album, lol. (No pressure, lol). Cheers, mate.

[@TopChev]

Fantastic video. You made it the way I, and i'm sure many others, love to see. Little to no introduction, straight into just compact examples of the product we're looking into. Thanks a ton man! Definetly helped my decision.

[@myceliumbug]

Una Corda is fantastic, played by you is absolute stunning

Great playing thanks for the video!

[@peeckle1657]

great demo, absolutely loved the vibe. is there any processing on this or these are just the raw samples?

[@GregAllison]

Glad you enjoyed! Really, just some compression to level out the volume differences between presets.

[@eriksbelte4119]

Well, i work on una cordas every day, these are beautiful instruments!

What a great demo.

Fairies sounds like a piano mixed with a kick drum. Odd, beautiful sound

[@jinksyxoxo]

thank you :) i will get this now

[@hogbelly]

i could fall asleep to this

[@ShikharKumar-fz6ti]

Which earphones are you using and in general while playing VSTs what audio system you use like Headphones or Monitor Speakers or these earphones ??? And which one ???

[@GregAllison]

Sorry for the late reply! I use in ear monitors because I used to live in an apartment where I couldn’t use studio monitors because I didn’t want to bother my neighbors. I am using Alclair RSM Custom in-ear monitors, but any multi-driver in ear monitor would be a great option!

[@PepePulid0]

Thanks!!!

[@TheSoundTestRoom]

Beautiful 😊

[@GregAllison]

Thank you!

[@ABS_AD77]

Hi Greg, thanks for the nice video, wondering how were you able to manage to get rid of those annoying pedal noises ? Thnank for your help. Cheers.

[@GregAllison]

For this video, I actually just used the presets of the instrument. You can definitely adjust the mechanical noises if you wanted to remove the pedal, hammer, or any of the additional resonance sound samples.

[@Alexander-Tkachenko]

How to make the sound be in the center? Why is the sound in the peseta by default not in the middle but more in the right channel? Help me please.

[@GregAllison]

If I’m not mistaken, by default, the keyboard is spread out in a stereo setup, so lower frequency notes will play slightly heavier in the left side of the mix, whereas higher notes notes on the right side of the keyboard will sound slightly louder in the right side of the mix. This can be changed in the tone settings of the plugin though.

[@Alexander-Tkachenko]

@@GregAllison Thank you very much!

[@mariemusik3260]

Beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing theses loving notes 😍! Question: Anybody knows if there is a way to scroll through the instruments with the arrow on my laptop keyboard directly? in Una corda and all the other Kontact instr? Thanks in advance ;)

[@GregAllison]

Marie, Sorry for the delayed response. Life has been wild! I actually do not know of any way to jump through presets or instruments like you can in the Logic Preset browser. Hopefully someone else might have some more input on your question.

[@danielcurreri4966]

Really great sounds and demo performance

[@GregAllison]

Thanks Daniel!

[@weave_of_k]

the music...i'm thoroughly sad now but I love these presets. thanks for sharing this with us!

[@dhoonygo]

Hey, I like your keyboard on the piano. Can you tell me the model name?

[@GregAllison]

Hi! I use a Studio Logic SL88 midi controller. The keyboard I have on that controller is a standard Apple Magic Keyboard.

[@pablovasquez2166]

Hey man...really nice demo. I would like to know if this plugin works fine with the free kontakt player and with any midi controller. Thanks in advance.

[@GregAllison]

Absolutely. It should work in Kontakt player my as well with any midi controller your computer can connect to.

[@narmada140]

Whats the piece called at 5:39?

[@narmada140]

And why is it so expensive :( i want to buy it but its just to much for a amature/hobbiest

[@GregAllison]

Hey! So these preset videos are actually all improvised. I briefly take a sec to get familiar with the preset I am recording, then I hit record and capture a few takes.

[@GregAllison]

And yeah, some VST instruments are fairly pricey. Check back in around November/December to see what sales they have running!

[@narmada140]

@@GregAllison cool that everything is improvised! what is in your opinion the best way to get femiliar with cords like this? Im a beginner/amature but i have a apitude for music and rithem. Should i primarely focus on learning chord progressions, or alot of songs? Any tips on how i can progress in a way thats fun and productive? And what is the genre you'r inspired by? (Srry for grammar and greetings from the netherlands :)

[@andrewthompsonmusic929]

im interested in this and piano colours if u had to pick one which would u get?

[@GregAllison]

Hey Andrew! I actually haven’t had time to play with Piano Colors much, but I I have several friends that say it has a lot more samples to choose from when designing sounds. Also, I believe there are probably more “sounds” in general. For what it’s worth, you might even check out Chroma by Sonuscore. That’s been a fun one to play with and I feel it’s also pulled some inspiration from Noire, Una Corda, and Piano Colors.

[@GregAllison]

I just did a preset demo of that one on my channel a couple of months back!

[@andrewthompsonmusic929]

@@GregAllison Greg ! thank you really appreciate that, will check it out cheers, i think im after as much control of those fabric sounds inbetween the hammers because non of my other piano libraries that i have (spitfire) have that and ive been looking for that sound like in the work of Goldmund

[@GregAllison]

100%. I’ve been searching for the same piano tone as in “Sometimes” by Goldmund. So rich.

[@andrewthompsonmusic929]

@@GregAllison if u don't mind me asking another question... What's the closest you've come to finding that sound... I've heard Goldmund uses keyscapes, but it's a bit pricy for me atm

[@EkremBicici]

When I try to play fast, after recording, i.e. after exporting as a WAV in Reaper, there are sometimes annoying noises in the background like clicky laggy noises when I play sth fast… I don’t how to describe it. Does anyone know the best Render settings for Una Corda in Reaper?

[@GregAllison]

Great question! Sounds like it might be a buffer size issue. In your DAW’s audio settings, it’ll give you an option to change your buffer size. Try raising the buffer size up to see if that resolves the issue!

[@EkremBicici]

@@GregAllison Thank you I tried it! Actually it helped to reduce it only, so there are still some little lag noises in the background… But thank you!

[@abhishekamar2697]

@@EkremBicici what is you cpu specifications?

[@abhishekamar2697]

@@EkremBicici same thing was happening with me when I was playing " Sonuscore- The Score " , lots of crackling noises were coming from speaker then I reduced buffer size where it completely gone, for live playing I reduc buffer size but for recording i record seperate instruments and then use as sample to mix together so that my cpu won't get too much load 😅

[@andrea_zao]

How do you get that resonance? Do you need a sustain pedal connected to the keyboard?

[@GregAllison]

Great question! I played all of the presets without changing any of the parameters, so I did use sustain, although the final thing I did in editing was just level-match the recordings so they were a consistent volume. No compression, just brought the volumes up or down for consistency.

[@christhedemocrat]

Don’t regular pianos have one string per key also?

[@GregAllison]

Great question! The exact number of strings depends on the model of piano, but is usually around 230 strings in total for an 88 key piano. For the tenor and treble notes, three strings are strung for each key, and for bass notes, the number of strings per note decreases from three, to two, and then to one string as you approach the lowest bass notes.

[@christhedemocrat]

@GregAllison Wow! Good info Thanks Brother Great video btw. Keep it up Greetings from Texas 💯

[@BhashanaLiyanage]

2:15 Who can play this arpeggio without quantizing 😬

[@billwesley]

To me it sounds like an exceptional CLAVICHORD, the transients are more clear crisp and less bombastic

[@michaelhosein9804]

yo can you do this with keyscape lol

Hey Michael! That’s the goal!
