Augmented GRAND PIANO from Arturia transforms a classic Steinway Model D into a modern sound-design playground. It pairs a rich sampled grand piano with a four-mode synthesis engine, letting you layer, morph, and reshape piano tones into cinematic textures, evolving atmospheres, and hybrid effects. Two independent layers each hold two sound sources, so you can blend acoustic samples with synthetic timbres and sweep between them using the central Morph control. Macro controls and velocity/aftertouch response keep expression immediate, while the advanced panel offers deeper modulation, arpeggiation, and fine-tuning. It suits film, game, and library composers seeking premium piano sounds, plus electronic producers who want a piano that goes from authentic to abstract. Whether you need theatrical concert-grand richness or barely-recognizable granular sustain, Augmented GRAND PIANO makes the piano work for your style.
