GERMAN GRAND V3
A deep, rich German concert grand, at home on your K2700.
The sound of the great German concert grand: a deep, round bass, a singing middle and a clear, bell-like top, with a long, even sustain. Key releases follow every note, and a simulated string resonance lets the open strings ring under the pedal.
The grand of the great concert stages, under your hands.
GERMAN GRAND V3 is a deep, rich German concert grand made for the K2700: the sound of the great stages, with a powerful bass, a warm, singing middle register and a top that rings clear without ever turning hard, and a long, even sustain from one end of the keyboard to the other.
Let a key go and you hear its damper fall back on the strings: a key release follows every note, softer or harder as you played. Hold the pedal down and a simulated string resonance lets the undamped strings answer each other, the way a concert grand blooms when its dampers lift.
It comes with KEDITOR GRAND: open it in the editor and shape its lid, its microphone, its voicing EQ, its room and its touch, live on your K2700, with every control also on the instrument's own panel.
The whole piano on the K2700's panel.
Every program answers the same 22 controls in Program mode, on the K2700 alone: no Mac and no app needed to shape the piano while you play.
