Cottage Piano is a modern piano software plugin created by RDGAudio, designed to bring authentic piano sounds directly to your PC. Compatible with any MIDI keyboard, it allows musicians to perform and produce music across a wide range of genres including Rock, Pop, House, EDM, and Trance. This plugin family offers three distinct piano models—Classic, Deluxe, and Diamond—each tailored to deliver unique tonal qualities and performance features.

The Cottage Piano Classic model stands out for its responsiveness and efficient performance. It features velocity sensitivity, enabling dynamic expression as you play. The plugin is quick to install and load, requiring minimal disk space and using an optimized RAM loading system. It includes essential sound shaping tools like ADSR envelope controls and algorithmic reverb, along with volume, pan controls, and a digital level meter. Support for sustain pedals has been thoroughly tested on popular keyboard brands, ensuring smooth integration into your setup.

To run Cottage Piano effectively, your system should meet basic requirements such as an Intel or AMD CPU, 2 GB of RAM (4 GB recommended), and at least 1 GB of VRAM (2 GB recommended). The plugin occupies a modest 200 MB of disk space, making it accessible for most modern setups. Additionally, it requires a MIDI keyboard controller and a digital audio workstation (DAW) compatible with VST 32 or 64-bit, AU, or Mac VST formats. These specifications ensure smooth operation and allow you to focus on creating music without technical interruptions.
