Product information

Introducing FOUNDATIONS | Piano, the first in Heavyocity’s all-new line of free virtual instruments.

FOUNDATIONS | Piano is an inspiring introduction to the modern, hybrid sound. Combining the soft dynamics of a stunning grand piano, an expertly-crafted sound design layer, and a highly-customizable interface — FOUNDATIONS | Piano is an expressive cinematic tool built to tell your story.

As a “powered-by-Kontakt” instrument FOUNDATIONS | Piano offers all playback and sound-shaping functionality through the full version of Kontakt 6 or the free Kontakt 6 Player.

Stunning Piano

Heavyocity have deeply sampled the soft dynamics of a beautiful grand piano, delivering you one of the essentials of the modern composer's toolkit, and a vast range of creative expression.

Creative Textures

The combination of organic instruments with creatively-processed synthetic elements is at the core of the hybrid, cinematic sound—and FOUNDATIONS | Piano follows suit, delivering a dynamic textural layer to accompany this pristine piano.

Built to be a sound design canvas for artists, producers, and composers of all experience levels, the FOUNDATIONS engine features an extensive palette of sound-shaping capabilities, including ARP, Gate, Space, and ADSR.
