The Crow Hill Company is giving away Absurdly Quiet Piano, a free grand piano library sampled at volumes so low that they would be physically impossible to play. The magic of sampling lies not only in recreating traditional performance, but in capturing territories that exist beyond the reach of a live player — and Absurdly Quiet Piano pushes exactly that frontier, recording each key one notch above “too quiet to make a sound at all.”
What is Crow Hill Company “Absurdly Quiet Piano”?
The result is a piano with the softness of a felt piano, but without the “sample” noise typical of felt libraries. The low end, which often sounds coarse on ordinary grand pianos, takes on a mellow, singing, almost baritone quality. It’s a character you genuinely can’t find anywhere else.
