Ivory 3 LE Modern Upright
Experience pristine recordings of the renowned Yamaha U5 Upright Piano. Long considered one of the finest upright models in the world, the U5 served as Yamaha’s flagship upright model for years. The piano featured in this collection was brand new at the time of recording, meticulously tuned and expertly regulated by Synthogy for the Uprights series. With its clear, expressive tone, the Modern Upright is an ideal choice for contemporary pop, rock, and jazz productions.
Ivory 3 LE Vintage Upright
Step back in time with the soulful Vintage 1914 Hume Upright, a big American-made gem from the golden-age of piano craftsmanship. Carefully selected after a wide-ranging search for the perfect vintage upright, this rare instrument with all-original parts was lovingly prepared, capturing the warmth and soul that only time can forge. Now reborn through the revolutionary technology of Ivory 3, the result is an upright piano full of raw emotion, timeless character, and unmatched realism.
Continuous Velocity
Provides continuous velocity-to-timbre at every piano strike, a first for sample-based virtual instruments.
MIDI 2.0 Ready
Ready NOW for MIDI 2.0 high resolution velocity, delivering all 65,536 timbre levels for each key.
Dynamic Shift
Enjoy finer adjustment of velocity response with Dynamic Shift and Equal Energy controls.
Maximize Hardware Capabilities
Take advantage of performance enhancements designed into the latest generations of computer hardware.
Hammer Strength
Hammer Strength changes the character of piano strikes from soft hammer to hard.
Principle among these features is Ivory 3’s Continuous Velocity to Timbre. Gone are the limitations of velocity layers or levels. Continuous Velocity provides real-time velocity to timbre change at every attack velocity.
Whether your controller is sending 127 values of MIDI 1.0 velocity, 16,384 values with MIDI (CC88) Velocity Extension, or (eventually) 65,536 values of velocity with MIDI 2.0 16-bit High-Resolution velocity, Ivory 3’s Continuous Velocity feature provides endlessly smooth velocity to timbre change for each value sent.
In musical terms, this translates to limitless degrees of tone color.
Powerful, Custom On-Board Mixing Desk: Each Stereo Channel in Ivory 3's Mix Desk has its own Trim, Gain, Polarity invert, 3 band EQ, Compression, Ambience, Chorus/Delay, Balance, M/S processing, Bus sends, plus multiple signal paths for parallel processing and more!
Ivory 3 also includes New Synth Layers including a beautiful Ensemble Strings sample by Audiobro.
Additional Synth Layer features such as Envelope Attack control have been added to the Synth Layer section in addition to a dedicated channel of the mixer for processing the Synth Layer with the full complement of channel mixing and effects.
All features are accessible through Ivory 3’s All New Graphical User Interface. The Ivory 3 GUI has been elegantly redesigned from the ground up.
The focus has been to create an interface that is fun and easy to use while providing logical and ergonomic access to the tremendous power in the Ivory 3 engine.
Ivory 3 also provides a new, simplified Preset structure that makes it easier to save and recall your custom presets.
What were once separate presets for Programs, Effects, and Sessions in Ivory 2 have now been incorporated into the single Design Preset. At the same time, the Ivory 3 engine will support all your old Ivory II presets and libraries for full backward compatibility!
Ivory 3 American Concert D is a free-standing virtual instrument, so no previous version of Ivory is required. Existing Ivory II owners will find that it installs quite readily into their current library. All of their previous Ivory II libraries, presets and projects will open within the Ivory 3 engine and environment.
