Absolute Piano offers a high-quality digital emulation of renowned grand pianos, including the Bosendorfer 225 and the Steinway Model B. Each piano is meticulously sampled every two notes with four velocity layers, capturing a wide dynamic range and rich tonal character. The Steinway Model B, often called the perfect piano, is celebrated for its balanced sound and adaptability across musical genres, from pop and rock to classical music. Version 4 introduces smooth crossfading between velocity layers, resulting in natural transitions that enhance the playing experience.

The latest upgrade, version 4.2, brings a revolutionary approach to piano resonance emulation, aiming to replicate the instrument's internal acoustic properties. Additional features include hammer and tonal simulation options, sympathetic resonance emulation, and an advanced reverberator that combines Schroeder and FDN algorithms for a lush, realistic ambiance. The software also includes a standalone host with MIDI tools and a sequencer, allowing users to play, record, and manage presets without needing a separate digital audio workstation.

Designed for ease of use and portability, Absolute Piano runs efficiently on a range of computers, including netbooks and small laptops, loading sounds in under 10 seconds. It supports up to 128-note polyphony and offers extensive multi-effects tailored specifically for piano sounds, from smooth reverbs to punchy dynamics. Users can play using a MIDI controller, mouse, or computer keyboard, and even layer performances for four-hand play. Its unique simulation capabilities allow creative sound shaping, making it possible to produce everything from pristine studio tones to experimental textures.
