Emotion Without Losing Clarity
Gentle Keys combines the intimate character of an upright piano with the clarity needed for emotional pop, cinematic writing and atmospheric arrangements.
Three microphone perspectives let you move between a more direct piano sound and a wider sense of room and space. Adjust the playing sensitivity to your keyboard, then control hammer and key noises independently when you want more natural mechanical detail or a cleaner performance.
Gentle Keys goes beyond the core piano with integrated string, synth and texture layers that can turn a simple piano part into a fuller emotional bed without reaching for another library. Built-in compression, three-band EQ and vintage tape saturation give you the final shaping tools directly inside KONTAKT.
