The Brasted Broken Upright Piano offers a rich collection of over 11,000 multi-sampled sounds captured in 24-bit audio quality, providing a deeply authentic upright piano experience. This instrument features four distinct microphone perspectives, each delivering unique tonal qualities—from a warm player’s perspective close to the soundboard to a spacious, ambient hallway mix. True staccato and crotchet articulations are included, along with a variety of organic sounds such as piano body wood knocks, seat creaks, and lid noises that add character and depth to every performance.

Designed to emphasize realism and an imperfect aesthetic, the Brasted Broken Upright captures subtle mechanical noises like fingers tapping keys, pedal movements, and the felt’s interaction with the keyboard. These nuances create an intimate and lifelike playing experience that brings out the unique charm of a slightly worn and broken upright piano. This makes it ideal for genres and projects seeking a warm, organic sound with a hint of character, especially in haunted, horror, or mood-driven compositions that benefit from its distinctive tonal palette.

Available in three versions, with the largest encompassing more than 30GB of detailed samples, this piano library offers flexibility depending on your storage and sonic needs. Its perfectly synchronized microphone positions allow for mixing as if recording a live piano, giving you control over the sound’s spatial and textural qualities. Full-length samples without loops ensure authenticity, while the inclusion of broken string effects and unmuted string resonances adds an unusual edge that sets this instrument apart.
