The B-Pian Upright is a bad, old, out of tune, mecanically unperfect but still usable upright piano. After watching a movie (we won't say which one) scene with a guy playing on an old upright and hearing what clearly was a 9 foot grand, we decided that it was time to produce that sound everybody knows, the sound of the piano you played on when you started learning the piano, the one that you were at your friends place and is taking dust and that goes out of tune in two weeks.

★★★★☆

very underrated sample! the piano has a wonderful detuned character of its own, which reminds me of a beautiful old piano at home. exactly what i was looking for for a long time. the dynamic range is not the very best (playing very loud and hard is not really possible, for example). also, some higher notes sound very shrill in the frequencies, but all in all the sound is wonderful, as well as the playability of this sample. for 40$, it's more than absolutely perfect.
