- In this video I'll take you through the presets found within the Logic 11 Studio Piano plugin.
Logic 11 was released on May 13 2024 so at the time of recording, this is less than 12 hours old.
I got it installed at 10 PM UK time, and recorded this demo at 8 AM the next morning, I was that excited to bring it to you.

Thanks for your support!
Been looking forward to a better, respectable piano from Logic for a while and this is amazing. HOWEVER… Your playing is phenomenal and more inspiring than all of these sounds. God bless you brother!! 🔥
Thanks very much, you’re too kind.
Agreed!
Thank you.
That is one fine sounding piano. I actually quite like the concert grand though do prefer the other presets, I can see uses for that. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you are one of the finest piano players I've ever heard. Just exceptional playing in every regard, I could listen to you improvise for hours.
You’re the second person to say they liked the concert grand, the other was a classical piano player friend of mine.
I may have to give it a second look, or see how it fits in a mix. Sometimes it’s hard to judge a thing when you’re just hearing it as a solo instrument, so I’ll take that under advisement.
Thank you very much for doing this video! I am not a logic user, but some of these are absolutely brilliant sounding, and the first couple are really the opposite of that. Lol really appreciate it. And of course, there’s nothing at all wrong with sitting here at 4:30 in the morning, eating cheese and pickles and listening to some really excellent random piano playing. Good times!
Well that was a thoroughly fun way to spend 20 mins. I don’t even use logic or play the piano but it was so much fun to listen to you play and get excited about the peculiarities of each preset.
Thanks for listening. Plenty more where that came from. I just love to share music with the world.
Awesome play-through! Super informative, enough to tempt me back to Logic, for sure. And, Andre, your playing is absolutely delightful- I could listen to you all day! Excellent work, sir!
Thank you so much sir, that means the world coming from you.
Really appreciate it.
I for one am retty excited to try these out, just got Logic 11 yesterday and ready to explore today.
I’d be curious to know your thoughts when you have time to have a play.
Do you like the new pianos? Hate them? Indifferent?
What about the new studio Bass?
Fantastic playing and a great video overall. Thanks!!!!!
Thanks so much. I hope it brings as much joy to others as it brings to me. It’s a great piano and long overdue to be honest.
The much improved piano sounds are great news! I’m setting up my studio, and was expecting to use my old Yahaha MO8 for piano, since I never loved the Logic X pianos, but now I know that I will be happy with the Logic pianos, since the update.
As you wrote this comment, I was literally playing the Studio Grand default preset.
I’ve sent clients tracks with it, I’ve recently rehearsed with it, I have a gig next week and I’ll be using it there, I just replaced the default piano in my template with it. That’s how much I personally like it.
Takes a lot for me to change the first sound I hear when I load Logic.
@@TheOnjLouis that’s awesome! I will be trying them out myself for the first time tomorrow. Thank you for the demonstration! Inspiring stuff!
I have Keyscape however it’s such a RAM Hog I’m glad to see Logic stepping their piano game up. Your playing goes without saying. You’re an ANIMAL on piano my man. I’m subscribed now!!
Thanks very much for your kind words, I just love the sound of the thing. Hard not to want to play it like mad haha
I neither own nor have I used Logic, but given that your playthroughs are always interesting, I gave this a listen. The one noticeable detail on the studio grand (my favourite) was the harmonics which ordinarily would be attributable to the piano body. These were very noticeable in the higher register. It'll annoy some, but I loved it!
I love me some harmonics, I’m with you.
Yet another video that makes me think I should just stop playing music altogether! Lol you're so talented brother, keep up the excellent work!🤠🙌🤟
Lol hearing him play makes me want to actually work at getting good! Incredible playing.
Excellent demo 👍
You are very good at piano!
Thank you.
12:32 what’s funny to me is that, other than the quite nice studio grands, the next time I thought oh I really want to play that, before I even registered why, was when you got to this one. Of course it’s the one with a slight detune. It’s rare to play a perfectly absolutely tuned piano. There’s always something a little bit off, that’s what gives them character.
Once came here for the Finger drumming Just to find Out he's a fully fledged Piano Virtuoso
Man your playing is something else Andre! Incredible walkthrough!
Thanks very much. I just knew I had to talk about it, after all I’d be remiss in my duties if I didn’t haha.
If these sound just as good on the iPad, I'm going to have a good time very soon indeed.
Should be the same… download size is the same for mac and iPad
They do sound exactly the same on LP4IP i have both platforms 😊
Hi Andre!
Do you happen to know why mine is taking so much time to load up the studio grand piano? The switch between the types too are equally draggy, takes minutes.
I have a MacBook Pro 2018. 32GB RAM.
I’ve increased the I/O buffer size to 1024, it’s same.
I’ll be really grateful.
@@wittyclicks7454 Increasing buffer won't help. The more important question is to find out if your drive is mechanical or SSD.
If it's also very full, it might be worth trying to clean some stuff up, to see if that helps make it run slightly faster.
Buffer only helps with record and playback issues, not loading issues.
@@TheOnjLouis Oh it's a mac core i9, 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4. I try to ensure the storage isn't more than 50% filled, yet it still has the system overload issues but only on this new Logic 11 sounds
@ If you ask me, I think they’re no longer optimising for Intel machines. They run hot, slow and like a huffing puffing old granddad and that’s likely why.
If the fans are always on, if things take years to happen, it’s because they’re pushing you to ditch that in favour of an Apple Silicon system.
Did you also know that the I9 Mac’s tend to run slower than their I7 counterparts?
They put a much too powerful processor in a thin chassis and as a result, it just gets hot, throttles and slows down like absolute crap.
If you can find someone to take it off your hands, someone who’s probably just gonna use it for internet browsing and the odd bit of word processing, pick up an N3 refurbished or a brand new M4 Pro or Max, all your problems will magically disappear.
Hate to be the bringer off bad news, but… Yeah, that.
@ mmm. Alright. Thank you
Can these piano sounds be used in a different DAW besides logic?
No, in the same way that stock Ableton sounds cannot be used outside Ableton, or ProTools-specific .AAX plugins cannot be used in anything other than ProTools.
Every DAW can have their exclusive plugins, and this just happens to be one of them for Logic.
Logic 11 is amazing. I expect it to blow all other DAWs out of the water, and it will be the legendary DAW that killed all the other DAWs. There are a number of significant innovations.
Studio Piano is just not one of them.
Everyone has their own tastes, but I think the existing Steinway D is significantly better-sounding than any permutations of the Studio Piano. Of course opinions vary, but I'm disappointed that it was not a step up in quality. It's a step sideways, and a pretty interface does not make it sound any better, just like Studio Strings and Studio Horns didn't really add anything of significance (the new basses, well, those are terrific-Logic was sorely in need of an upgrade there).
As a lead AP in most genres, the Steinway D cuts through better. It sounds just as good, if not a lot better than the SP. If it has any fault at all, it's a little harsh-sounding in certain registers. But I found a way to ameliorate that 9 years ago-simply double track it with a pristine copy of the Steinway track layered with the Bosendorfer, which has a woody, more mellow sound (but can't carry a lead all on its own), then lower that track by 3 dB.
Now, you have a lead AP that sounds like a single instrument that cuts through but also has body to it. The Bosey overtones mellow the harshness of the Steinway. The only remaining issues are the Samplers are not well engineered for level (but I re-engineered the individual notes that were too loud or too soft in the Logic Pro sampler, and you can, too), and the Bosey is a bit loud in the MIDI '60' range. If you have a lot of dynamics (softer notes) the Studio Piano might solve that particular problem, but it won't cut through like this Steinway-Bosendorfer combination.
There are other tricks. I layer in a Korg compressed piano (gives a tack piano quality to things) on occasion, and 'ElectroHarmonix' from Logic (down -10 dB) which adds nice sustain, and if I want a brighter voice, I layer in The Grandeur from AAS, which has a voice like a female vocalist.
The Studio Piano might be better for left-hand accompaniment, as that does not need to cut through like the lead does, so that may be where I end up using it, likely layered with the enhancements mentioned here.
Studio Horns, especially when you play the 6 or 7 piece section does chords in ways that even hugely expensive third-party libraries don’t seem to. It will play the note you played on the correct instrument, using divisi, so yeah, that. I’d hardly say that wasn’t useful.
As for the piano, as a jazz player, the new pianos simply blow the old stuff out of the water.
The decay when releasing a note with the older Steinway and Yamaha pianos are disgusting. Only a cranky go honkietonk piece of junk would ever play like that in real life.
No Steinway or Yamaha I’ve ever played had the note go on 2 seconds after you release the key.
These new ones implemented *proper* key release and that’s where it shines for me.
You may hate the boxy sound or whatever, but proper key release is one of the most important things for fast solos and staccato licks.
Thanks. Great demo, great playing.
The sympathetic resonance function does not work at all. I played a 6-note chord (all notes at 80) and bounced it, first with 0% resonance, then with 100% resonance. Then I inverted the phase on one of them, and played them together.
The result? Dead silence, indicating that there is ZERO difference between those settings.
Maybe Apple is still working out details. But to imply that there are settings that work, that don't, is nothing more than snake oil, and they lose all credibility, immediately. You want sympathetic resonance? The Grandeur has it in spades.
BTW, stereo mic A sounds better, and it is also more 'stereo' than mic B. If you play the lowest note, it is mostly in the left channel, and if you play the highest note, it is mostly in the right channel. Mic B is much more mono. I recommend not using mic B at all, and if you want it more mono, simply blend in the mono mic to taste.
It *should* have been called ‘Pedal Resonance’ in which case you’d have understood what it actually meant.
Hold the pedal down and play some chords, you’ll hear the effect when you crank it to 100%.
They used the wrong term, but it is implemented in a way that is misleading.
Y esos pianos no llegan a MainStage?
Mainstage uses the exact same library Logic is using
