Musio presets- Ain’t none.
Long answer- They have “Racks” which let you store the settings of multiple sample-sets (or just one), but there is not much to tweak. It is a pretty bare-bones sample player with simple effects (not user add-able), and so far I have not seen any factory “racks”. A lot of instruments will have a bunch of articulations that you can stack in a rack, but Piano in Blue is a single multisampled instrument with a reverb. You can adjust/bypass effects, but you can’t add them.
Thanks, Brian. I suspected that might be the case.
While the library sounds good, it doesn’t have that tone and magic of the demo songs for the Kontakt version that sounded a lot like the piano sound from the iconic Miles Davis album that inspired the library. So color me disappointed on that front. If my heart wasn’t set on that, I certainly wouldn’t be disappointed with Musio. I also loaded two Tina Guo libraries and thought that they played and sounded lovely. It’s hard to say no for that price, but that piano definitely didn’t have the “Kind of Blue” sound in the Kontakt version demos. That’s a let down.
Your friend who keeps the beat. I suppose I'm also the chef at this place.
