Introducing Rick Allen Sculptor Series: Piano FX by Rigid Audio – Unleash the unconventional sounds of a creatively mangled piano. This isn’t your typical pristine grand piano library; it’s a unique and characterful Kontakt library designed to push the sonic boundaries of the instrument. Created through Rick Allen’s experimental recording techniques, Piano FX delivers a collection of raw, gritty, and unexpected piano sounds perfect for adding a distinct edge to your music.
Dive into a world far beyond traditional piano tones, featuring everything from aggressive strikes and powerful percussive hits to eerie scrapes, unsettling metallic resonances, and all manner of unconventional textures. Whether you’re scoring horror films, crafting experimental soundscapes, or seeking unique sonic elements, this library is your gateway to the raw and untamed side of the piano. Be sure to check out the demo track to experience the diverse sounds and onboard processing capabilities.
Piano FX is designed for ease of use, with everything contained within a single NKI file for Kontakt. This allows you to quickly load the library and begin your sonic explorations. For added flexibility, the raw WAV samples are also included, giving you the freedom to drag and drop them directly into your DAW for further manipulation.
The library is thoughtfully organized into three distinct sample sets to streamline your workflow:
Hits: Explore powerful percussive strikes delivered directly to the soundboard and across the piano strings. These sounds are ideal for creating impactful elements and driving rhythmic patterns.
Scrape: Delve into the realm of gritty textural sounds, including strangled strings, harsh metal scrapes, and other unconventional techniques. Perfect for adding raw intensity and unique textures to your tracks.
FX: Discover a treasure trove of processed and manipulated sounds specifically designed to inject instant atmosphere and character into your music.
Further sculpt your sound with a range of intuitive controls and effects:
Reverse Playback: Easily reverse the playback of samples for creating unique and intriguing sonic textures.
Sample Start Point Adjustment: Fine-tune the timing and character of each sound by adjusting the sample start point.
Preview Selection Button: Toggle this to stretch a single sample across the entire keyboard, opening up exciting possibilities for chromatic playback and melodic experimentation.
Manipulation Controls: Adjust the volume, tuning, and playback speed to precisely shape your sounds.
Stutter: Introduce captivating rhythmic manipulation with controls for stutter amount, gate time, and speed.
Resonance Filter: Sculpt the overall tonal character of the sound.
Lowpass Filter: Shape the high frequencies with dedicated controls for cutoff and resonance. You can even right-click to assign any control to MIDI automation for dynamic real-time manipulation.
ADSR: Gain precise control over the attack, decay, sustain, and release of each sound, allowing for detailed envelope shaping.
Granular Processing: For truly experimental sound design, the granular processing section allows you to break samples into tiny grains and manipulate them in countless inspiring ways.
Dedicated Effects Page: Enhance your sounds with essential tools including a lush chorus for adding width and depth, a gritty low-fi effect for crushing the sound, and a swirling phaser for psychedelic textures. Add ambience with reverb featuring hall and room models, expand the stereo image with stereo width control, introduce rhythmic echoes with the delay, and add analog warmth with tape saturation. A dedicated EQ section is also included for fine-tuning the tonal balance.
