The stunning Ravel Grand software piano employs UA’s unparalleled physical modeling techniques surpassing other sample libraries and plugins - giving you ultimate playability and expression in your performance. With precise detail and stunning realism, this piano plug-in brings your music to life with highly reflective frequencies, deep tonal nuances, and natural dynamics - a sumptuous sonic environment that provides the perfect accompaniment to your compositional ideas.
The Ravel Grand Piano is ideal for contemporary producers and performers alike, from pop to rock, R&B to hip-hop; whatever style of music you create, it's sure to be enhanced by this incomparable virtual instrument. Going beyond just visual aesthetics and empathic features associated with traditional grand pianos — such as the stunning Steinway Model B on which it is based — Universal Audio has designed a highly responsive instrument that captures any subtle nuances of your playing perfectly.
Universal Audio Ravel Grand Piano Features
The Ultimate Model of a Model B
The 6' 11" Steinway Model B is the most recorded studio piano for a reason, delivering the ideal, mixable studio grand sound as heard on countless modern hits, across every genre. Its rich tones blend perfectly with drums, bass, electric guitar, and other surrounding instruments — never muddying up mixes and instead giving you a balanced, mix-ready piano track every time.
Introducing UltraResonanceTM Technology
Sympathetic string resonance — or the phenomenon of undamped strings and the soundboard vibrating in response to other strings being played — is often the Achilles’ heel of virtual pianos. Using proprietary modeling and sampling techniques, UA's exclusive UltraResonance technology exactingly recreates these complex interactions, giving you the airy, evolving palette of harmonics that allows notes to melt into each other. From soft muted notes to languid, pillowy nuances, UltraResonanceTM sets a new benchmark in resonance and realism.
Simple Control of Perfectly Placed Mics
Designed to give you a professional, record-ready sound right out of the gate, Ravel's easy-to-use interface lets you sculpt your piano sounds with three pairs of hand-chosen vintage mics from famed engineer Allen Sides' mic locker. Featuring only the controls you need, Ravel ensures you'll never get lost in confusing menus. Easily tweak Ravel's Volume, Tone, and a microphone Close/Room slider, letting you go from intimate tones to a lush room sound, and everywhere in between.
More Modern Textures
Looking to add drama, suspense, or other left-of-center timbres? Ravel's Reverse feature lets you easily add unique atmospheric piano sounds. Use the Mix control to add in subtle reverse textures to your normal piano playing, or go completely "backwards" for all kinds of fun. You can even “play the control” for surprising real-time performance changes.
It's time to take your musical projects to the next level with unequaled accuracy and realism — get started today with Universal Audio's ground-breaking software piano: the Ravel Grand Piano!
