About

Blueprint #18: Textural Pianos is a rich collection of acoustic and electric textural piano performances, curated by Fracture Sounds founder Will Bedford.

This release features 20 articulations, spanning a variety of acoustic and electric piano performances. With over 1,000 possible sound combinations, further sculpted by envelope controls, filters, and onboard effects, the creative possibilities are endless.

Instantly spark inspiration with the shuffle button, or explore one of the eight carefully crafted presets designed by the Fracture Sounds team—just a glimpse into the depth of this expressive library.

Interface

• Layer Controls. Solo an individual layer by selecting the “S” button. Lock the settings of an individual layer by selecting the padlock. This means if you hit the central shuffle button, that layer’s sound will not change.
• Attack & Release. Shape the sound with global attack and release controls that affect all layers.
• Filters. Low pass and high pass filters applied to all layers.
• Delay. Controls the level of the wet delay signal. Click the cog for further options such as delay type, saturation, damping, and feedback.
• Reverb. Control the reverb level with further settings if you click the cog.
