EastWest Quantum Leap Yamaha C7 Platinum Edition - Download

This virtual instrument showcases the Yamaha C7, the pop/rock piano from EastWest Studio 2. This particular C7 has been used on more Gold and Platinum records than any other piano in existence. It is a great bright piano, but attention was also paid to the soft dynamics, which really separates this effort.

EastWest/Quantum Leap spent two years recording, editing, and programming this detailed collection of the world's finest grand pianos, with 3 mic positions for each piano. The PLAY interface includes impulses from the same hall the producers used to record Symphonic Orchestra and Symphonic Choirs so all Quantum Leap Pianos can blend with those collections.
