4Front Technologies TruePiano Review

4Front Technologies Truepiano Review

When it comes to piano virtual instruments, there are lots and lots to choose from.  Some are expensive, some are cheap and some are free.  It is very rare that you find a piano vst that is very high in quality, and that is reasonably priced.  One of these rarities, is 4Front Technologies’ TruePiano.  It’s very simple interface and design comes with a surprisingly amazing sound.

TruePiano comes with five different types of piano (Sapphire, Emerald, Diamond, Amber and SapphirePed).  On top of that, each one of these can have a certain preset effect added to it to give it a sound to match your song.  For example, you can add a bright effect to give the piano more of a happy feeling, or add a studio effect to make the piano sound more thick and fuller.

What makes TruePiano so suprising, is that its simple looking interface produces a high quality of sound.  Although, you can turn on the advanced interface option, and it will give you the options to change the velocity, pitch and volume of the piano.  However, you won’t probably need to change it as changing to one of the preset effects of the piano will be enough to get the sound you are looking for.

4Front Technologies’ TruePiano is the best sounding all round piano VST I have ever heard.  The sound is as clear as you will hear, and in my opinion the only thing that could beat the sound would be the real thing (and it would only beat it by a little way).

It comes in VST, RTAS and AU format meaning it will work with almost every DAW, as well as coming in standalone format so you can play around with it when not recording.  If you need to fine tune the sound to your liking, it lets you save you own presets that you make (using the advanced options) so you can use them in the future.

Overall, TruePianos is the best piano virtual instrument I have ever come accross in terms of sound quality, and with its different presets and piano types, it can be used for a wide range of music.

Overall Score: 10/10
