Presenting our tenth official add-on for the Sequential Prophet X and XL analog hardware synthesizer, we welcome you to the world of the 1969 Piano.

The 1969 Piano (Model D) Concert Grand Piano marks one of the most exquisite piano lines in existence. The tone is rich and full, yet bright and airy. Its character—sublime. This piano creates an unabashedly timeless sound that will transform and adapt to any type of music.

We decided to sample a model specifically from 1969 since that era lent itself to some of the most iconic creations in piano engineering. Over time, the soundboard of our piano settled and opened up, creating resonations so soulful that we no choice but to capture them.

To ensure that we recorded it faithfully, we used six different microphone perspectives (Overhead, Keyboard/Player, Dampers, Spot, Ambient, and Room). This will allow you to dial in the sound and perspective you need—whether it's the full range of overheads,  the slightly softened mics on the dampers, or the room perspective with the keyboard/player mixed in for a wide and open sound.

It's a powerful add-on for the Sequential Prophet X and XL, through and through.

"Sanfilippo invests the eight untitled pieces with deep feeling, and the listener is often taken aback by the elegance and beauty of the material. There's some hint that the settings are largely rooted in improvisation; if so, the recording impresses even more because its harmonious pieces present themselves as formal compositions of distinct melodic character rather than directionless musings" Textura.org
