Sound and sampling of the D-232 piano
The presets are based on a Stonegrabber D-232 Semi Concert Grand that was sampled at six velocity levels. Tracktion recorded it with four microphones in both OMNI and XY stereo configurations.
The multi-microphone capture gives you a choice of recording perspectives. According to the developer, this lets you adjust the blend between them to shape the final tone. The result is a piano sound the developer characterizes as warm and very German.
