From Manufacturer
Piano V from Arturia delivers a studio full of faithful models of nine pianos, plus the ability to shape the sounds themselves. Since the virtual instrument provides controls over different components and characteristics, one can choose and play pianos that are the pinnacle of realism, or get as radical as required with unconventional sounds.
A given piano will sound very different compared to the rest of the versions based primarily on its construction, but also depending on its environment, mic'ing, and processing. With the simple click of the mouse it's possible to move any piano into a different type of room, select various microphone positions, and shape the tonality with the built-in EQ.
