I don't know why people hate on infythusion's piano samples...they are high quality samples and with a bit of time and patience you can truly create something unique and magical,, Enjoy my doodling...some more to come. Feel free to open up and study if you please,

I apologize for this guys lol. I see a lot of you do not like this, but hey, I had a hell of a time making it. Plus the satisfaction I got for writing out this melody in one sitting, free handedly (hence improv) I am happy with this.

No need to apologize, this is a lovely piece. The melodies are beautiful and the fact that you took the time to make it like this makes it even better :)

Yeah cool man, totally agree with Sunder tho, it's hard to emulate that 'human' touch without a keyboard or midi controller

I typically use a midi controller (hence the annie album) but for this I just wanted to use infy's samples, since people like to disregard them and call them trash

The only problem with this method is the lack of diversity in the note velocity

I tried that, but the piano didn't have the same texture doing so :C

I don't know how you did it but cutting the beginning of a sample is a good way of reducing the velocity without just making it "quieter".

This is mainly venting and attempting something out of the ordinary here. I typically create my piano pieces in ableton using my piano vst but I started this melody a while ago so I figured I should finish it ;P

Yes, I found that the only issue as well as I was going along with making this. There are a lot of notes I really wanted to lower their velocity on, especially in the melodic solo section but AT does not have that feature quite yet sadly so I was stuck with it the way it was. But I agree 10,000% would be heckin' cool to have a velocity control panel for samples.
