Title "Noted Works" 1

http://clones.soonlabel.com/public/micro/lucy-tuned/a1-4-02-6-9109-track-1-bill-in-concert-lucy.mp3

A friend of mine (William Newbold) gave me a midi file with 7 tracks made back in 2002 or 2003. It was essentially white key music with two tempo ramp increases. What I did was set up pianoteq and GPO Aria to a 2 flat 3 sharp Lucy tuning scheme, increased the ramp velocities and note lengths, did minimal note editing and orchestrated for amplified piano (modified pianoteq grand), choir, flute, french horn, violin, and cello.

The choice of Lucy tuning was made to increase the resonance of the piano - this was done before the other instruments were added.

Hi Chris,
the modified piano sound is great! How the resonance was increased?

Hi Milan,

Pianoteq uses physical modeling so I was able to change the soundboard impedence and sympathetic resonance to the max to increase note time and decreased the piano size to the minimum to increase inhamicity (spelling?) And I put quadratic effect to the max as well to increase harmonic content variety. This is all in the upper right of pianoteq.

Congrats, Chris, I think this is really effective and
unique-sounding.

Thanks, I thought you have made the sound modification outside the pianoteq. I must try this synth sometimes.

Very nice and atmospheric...like it a lot! And the use of pianoteq is
very tasteful---quasi-Cageian prepared sounding...very ethereal.

Thanks Carl, but the credit goes to the pianoteq programmers.

This VSTi is at this time the best I've ever used bar none. With my $200
M-audio 88 key controller and good headphones it is like playing a real
piano to my ears without the finger aerobics. :-)

The control, like with this tune, just makes it all the more awesome!

PS - thanks for the tip - you introduced me to pianoteq.
