MeldwayGrand Black Friday pricing from MeldaProduction takes 91% off this Steinway D grand piano instrument, bringing it to $8 until Jan 1, 2027.
It is a virtual grand piano built on a sampled Steinway D. The maker describes it as realistic, dynamic and heavily customizable, with effects, mic positions and a creative section for sound design.
It runs in the free version of MSoundFactoryPlayer. Buying MSoundFactory or MSoundFactory LE also gets you MeldwayGrand at no extra cost, according to the maker.
MeldaProduction says it captured the Steinway D with top-end recording gear and paired the samples with its own purpose-built technologies. The maker points to the size of the instrument as the reason the low keys sound full.
The maker also says MeldwayGrand can be more dynamic than the original piano. It lists classical, ambient, soundtrack and pop as target genres.
Several performance controls are listed:
There are 7 stereo microphones, and each has its own controls, from volume to formants and detuning.
Blend them to move the sound from dark and cinematic to bright and pop-ready.
The Creative tab holds resonators, filters, FM and more. The maker says the results land between natural and artificial.
You can reorder the effects or use the randomizer to get ideas moving.
The FX section has a set of 25 algorithmic reverbs made for this piano. It also has a delay, sonic enhancer, compressor, bellizer, distortion and rotary.
On Windows, you need Windows 8, 10 or 11 (64-bit) and a 64-bit VST, VST3 or AAX host. The CPU must be Intel or AMD with SSE2 support.
On macOS, you need macOS 10.14 or newer (64-bit) and a VST, VST3, AU or AAX host. Intel, AMD and M1 processors work, and native Apple Silicon ARM support is included.
