Vienna Symphonic Library – Synchron Yamaha CFX v1.2.2

Acoustic Versatility

The Yamaha CFX is a magnificent handcrafted concert grand piano measuring 275 cm in length, combining the long tradition of Japanese piano craftsmanship with incredible emotion. Its sound palette is astonishing in its range: from powerful, dramatic chords to the most delicate and gentle nuances.

The CFX’s distinctive tone – precise, bright, clear and powerful – makes this instrument incredibly versatile. It is equally at home in classical, romantic and contemporary pieces, whether solo, chamber or orchestral. And with its rich, expressive sound, the CFX is especially suited to pop and jazz.

Now the benchmark sound of CFX is available in your studio: this carefully recorded virtual instrument combines the impeccable sound of a grand piano with the acoustics of the famous Vienna Synchron Stage , tested to Hollywood standards. Flexibility, convenience and impeccable quality – everything you need for creative freedom.

Absolute precision, voluminous sound

The virtual embodiment of this instrument is imbued with our team’s boundless passion for natural sound and impeccable performance experience. We captured this magnificent grand piano in the magical acoustics of Stage A at the Vienna Synchron Stage , renowned for its unusually warm, rich and natural sound.

The project is based on the award-winning Yamaha Disklavier Enspire Pro system . It ensures the highest accuracy, detail and stability of sound throughout the recording. With 4200 samples per key, our virtual Yamaha CFX grand piano conveys the sound of the real thing with stunning authenticity.

Keys to Perfection Capturing notes with all the gradations of key

velocity, duration and subtle nuances is a key challenge in piano sampling, especially when working with the acoustics of an orchestral studio. Our revolutionary Advanced Release Sample Technology comes to the rescue . It automatically selects up to 300 individual release samples of each key, so you get not just sound, but a living, breathing piano with an impeccably natural timbre.

Create your own unique sound

To record this magnificent instrument in one of the world’s finest acoustic spaces, our engineers used a range of premium professional microphone systems. This provides unlimited possibilities for creating a unique sound: there are 10 different microphone positions to choose from. Even if you are not working with surround sound , the library allows you to achieve incredible spatial depth and acoustic richness – just add room microphone signals to your stereo mix.
