Over the years, he has collected an impressive number of historical instruments.

Moreover, Peter Karsten himself participated in many steps of the development of all the instruments ― from the initial recordings for the audio analysis until the final stages of the beta tests ― together with a dedicated team of experienced musicians. That way, Modartt ensured that the authenticity of the instruments corresponds to the most demanding requirements, adapted for concert performance and recording.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eINNOVATIVE TONAL QUALITIES\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAll virtual copies of these instruments are physically modelled which means innovative tone features and extremely small file sizes (megabytes instead of gigabytes). The sound can be modified through advanced physical parameters, and several tuning temperaments can be selected via a selection of presets. An \"Original\" preset delivers the sound of each instrument in its current state, whereas other presets attempt to reproduce the sound of the instruments when they were brand new.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003ePIANOTEQ\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis collection requires a license to Pianoteq 6.7 or higher. Pianoteq is an award-winning virtual instrument which you can install on your computer (PC\/Mac). It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and will even run on some ARM-based boards such as the Raspberry Pi. It can be used both in standalone mode and as an instrument plug-in in VST, AAX, and AudioUnits hosts.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWhat makes Pianoteq superior to other virtual instruments is that the instruments are physically modelled and thus can simulate the playability and complex behaviour of real acoustic instruments. Because there are no samples, the file size is just a tiny fraction of that required by other virtual instruments, making Pianoteq perfect for any modern laptop.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pianoteq","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450852143207,"sku":"171066","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/pianoteq-karsten_171066_1_96d499ef-230b-48b7-a094-5ddc61283aa3.jpg?v=1787094800","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/pianoteq-karsten-collection","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
