Cattaneo Upright Piano: Intimate Piano Kontakt Instrument by Have Audio

The core of the instrument is the PIANO channel, which serves as the main sound. The HUMAN channel adds performance noises, and when the sustain pedal is engaged, the instrument responds with pedal-sustained notes and press and release sounds that follow your MIDI sustain pedal input.

Three further channels extend the palette. SWELL adds swelling textures, RUST adds analog-style distortion, and COLOR is built from samples of a vintage claviharp. All five channels can be mixed together or used on their own.

Core controls include ATTACK, which lets you shape the note attack, and a choice of six reverb algorithms. The delay section offers Normal or Ping-Pong delay types, a time subdivision menu and a level control.

A tape section adds cassette-style hiss, with six noise types to choose from, plus a Wobble control for random detuning effects. An arpeggiator adds rhythm and movement. Three FX pedal slots each offer six effect types: EQ, compression, saturation, chorus, phaser and Leslie.
