Blown away by how Galaxy Instruments continues to be industry leading in piano libraries all these years. So much talented competition, but there's something about the tonality and inventiveness in programming that always come through. Hope to see this partnership with NI continue for a long time to come!
all the time you think: "ok, they've got everything in their instrument collection, they wont offer you something unique anymore", and all the time they do that. thank you guys, we love you!
Studio manager walks in mid recording session "guys what is the toilet brush doing in the studio and why are you cleaning the strings of my $100 000 piano with it?"
You know I initially thought "what can they add that would make another piano library appealing"... well CALL ME SHOCKED... yes you've added some true gems in terms of new, MUST-HAVE features! **Bravo, Native Instruments!**
NI, you have struck gold again. I was sold at Chapter 4, the Music Track. Before watching video: "Awesome! Definitely worth a look, you can never have too many pianos, as it is the world's most beautifully expressed musical instrument." After watching video: "Incredible!! The world's most beautifully expressed musical instrument just entered a whole new dimension!!"
I've been using this for about 3 weeks now and although I'm not crazy about every Native Instruments product out there, this one is fantastic. The sample recordings are pristine, the variety of sounds is great and the options for combining and altering the sounds with tonal controls, envelopes, etc is endless. Only gripe is that you can't seem to have a delay AND reverb on the same channel at the same time, but......really great for creating percussive combinations. Well done.
Such wonderful timbral inspirations! Great job - congratulations! If the great Lyle Mays would have had an instrument like this...he didn't need it, I know but still I imagine endless sound adventures...! It makes me want something like this for Electric Piano! Remember all the fantastic tonal adventures that Chick Corea & Joe Zawinul had with the Electric Piano? So please realize "Electric Piano Colors"!
I must agree with the comment about comparing this to Stratus and as NI's response to it. Now I ADORE Stratus; the swarms are amazingly beautiful and rich and the textures it creates are insane but you really do have to trust that it's going to work. You really have to put your faith in the behind the scenes of it to deliver and whilst it does, it is always a little sad you can't dig in and tweak it out. This seems like it will be a great addition and work in harmony with Stratus. Cannot wait to buy this as I'm sure everyone else is. This is gonna be such a huge part of the neo-classical sound going ahead I know!
Such a great sounds as outcome and a great produced video too. I dont know why but the sound touches my heart. I bought the S61 and Piano Colors will be my first software. Great Job!
This is absolutely incredible. I love Kontakt, haven’t been completely enamored of their piano libraries (personal taste, I definitely need to explore them more), but THIS is easily one of the most beautiful and useful things I’ve purchased in some time! Love it.
I am gonna have lots of fun after I upgraded to CE 14 from 12! As a media composer, the piano colors sounds are really made for and fit Nat Geo documentaries or a background sounds for real estate or tourism marketing campaigns. Although it fits pop also very well, my ears just caught the cinematic vibes behind this great library. Thanks NI :)
Okay, so let's get this out the way...this is definitely NI's answer to Olafur Arnold's Stratus by Spitfire Audio. And as an owner of Stratus, I didn't really think I'd be that interested in this. After watching the video though, without having even used this yet, I can already see some pretty huge advantages here. 1. The price. Even excluding the introductory offer of $50 off, this is still way cheaper than what Stratus costs. 2. Perhaps the biggest perk; GUI. I can already tell that this is much more intuitive and easier to use. As much as I love Stratus, that has always been my biggest complaint. The GUI is pretty, but it's like looking at an alien spaceship when it comes to working it. It's a hot mess and it's not fun at all. Just purchased this and looking forward to test driving this bad boy!
I thoroughly agree. I also have Stratus, and although it has some very sweet spots it was nowhere near as versatile as I had hoped. This seems to be much closer to my expectations. It's downloading now!
I've been going through this for a couple of days now and I'm impressed with the sounds but can't believe they didn't include a delay in the fx section!
Okay this is just too good. I said no more libraries till black friday but godammit this is about to change my mind. Insane how many cool things you can do with this. You guys have no respect for my wallet.
Nice to see new NI pianos with integrated advanced tools like the particle engine and now an arpeg, its easy to make evolving textures with an exquisite grand
Hello. It would be incredible if you NI could put the Massive X inside the standalone mode of your last groovebox and use this great synth independently of your computer.
great work native , keep it. Very intuitive plugins you got. Much love ( Just a request : Please try to bring a midi controller with more than 16 pads or extendable syncing pads for maschine mikro or the maschine , Please, ) Thank you. cheers.
And I thought it was only me!! This is a great library and of course I will get it, but it is particularly useful for those who are at intermediate piano level. Noire is a library that pros can manipulate like no other.
Forgive me, but for all the effort you have made, and with a result of 26 Gb, and with a significant CPU and Ram load, I have heard the result in other libraries.
Look forward to getting it next year's sale. Sounds great. Just upgraded my komplete 9 to collectors 13 this year so no more money to spare anytime soon👍👀 next big purchase is gonna be a nice complete orchestra like Albion or something since that's a bigger hole in my library. Will def cop this at some point tho.
I just bought Komplete 13 Ultimate CE and told myself I'll wait at least wait till 15 to update again. But in the last few months so many cinematic instruments have released, it's looking like I'm not gonna be able to stop myself from just updating to 14 when it releases
NI❤️. Could you please update komplete kontrol s series to a mk3 version with more features and expressive control improvements, internal step sequencer and industry standard plugin controls onboard without loading an instrument or effect plugin on the komplete kontrol software! Also we love to have some standalone sound engine in it.
@@NativeInstruments Noire is very special and I won't be swapping it any day soon for a step son! This is wonderful especially for those who are intermediate performers, but Noire is the true pianist's library - let's not get too ahead of ourselves!
You're really amazing, i was thinking what can surprise me after Noire and Mysteria? And you did it! And now i'm thinking what you could do after that ? going in the deep of oceans to record sounds or in space or in the center of Earth? THX Girls and Guys behind this

NI! Seriously. this is the nicest graphics I have ever seen in a Kontakt library.
Thank you!!!!
The GUI does look amazing for Piano Colors 🙌

Couldn't agree more!
My goodness! I was wrong when I thought it is just going to be another piano library. Well done, NI and everyone behind this. Always a big fan. ❤
Hey Kaitav! We're happy to see you're feeling this one.
Let us know how what you think when you get a chance to play with it 🙌
@@NativeInstruments Sooner or later for sure! :) 🙌
I thought Noire was the last piano I ever needed from NI, but here we are again
here we go ... again 😅 😉
@@NativeInstruments I will buy this.... but Noire is the King so far.
Exact Same Thoughts mate !!! 😂😂
This is like the strings for piano.
How has the experience been 2 years out?
The toilet brush option has convinced me completely. xD
all the time you think: "ok, they've got everything in their instrument collection, they wont offer you something unique anymore", and all the time they do that. thank you guys, we love you!
Every single time and there's more coming 😂 🤭
@@NativeInstruments Oh my I can't wait for that :) Komplete 14 soon? ;)
Not that soon ...
Studio manager walks in mid recording session "guys what is the toilet brush doing in the studio and why are you cleaning the strings of my $100 000 piano with it?"
Don't worry! Chill, this is for music, trust us!
Didn't you know manager? The toilet brush is Native to this Instrument !!!
😂 😂 😂
"Daddy, why are we so poor?"
Sorry son, NI just wouldn't stop making groundbreaking new instrument libraries.
Blown away. My head's going to explode with all the options. But love it!
You know I initially thought "what can they add that would make another piano library appealing"... well CALL ME SHOCKED... yes you've added some true gems in terms of new, MUST-HAVE features!
**Bravo, Native Instruments!**
Thank you so much 🙏
Wooow adorooooo quando la NI fa i campioni di piano e spettacolare.... 🖤🖤🖤
OMG. Uli! you are a legend
📣 📣 📣
I fill shaking chills with those sounds

That is what i call..inspiration.!!! Very well ..done..congruts.!!
Kontakt and Reaktor!!! Amazed at how much you can do with these two environments.
Best Instrument since years……
Unreal instrument, super inspiring!!
There are already so many great piano samples and emulators on the market, it's refreshing to see a piano VST that has something interesting.
Ultra resourceful, ultra useful and ultra sonically amazing ….speechless 😮😮
As a midi guitar player things like this were unthinkable not long ago. thank you Native Instruments😁
You're very welcome!
Very nice work! Congrats to the Native team, looks like another home run. Can’t wait to experiment with it today.
This one is really special, hope you enjoy it!
Fantastic demonstration with a beautiful sounding result. There is always room for another piano in software.
Absolutely!

I was just about to buy that right now and saw this I couldn’t agree more !!
But isn't Stratus more based on synths and delay? This reminds me more of Hauschka.
Okay nevermind, just heard the particles patch 😄
I thoroughly agree. I also have Stratus, and although it has some very sweet spots it was nowhere near as versatile as I had hoped. This seems to be much closer to my expectations. It's downloading now!

I Don't know how I got here. But I only know that I really need this now!! This is brilliant just brilliant!!
Beautiful!! Can’t wait to dig in!
Hope you'll enjoy it Jef 🙌
Another piano library…?
YES 😍
Incredible demonstration/explanation of a brilliant product!
What a fantastic library! 😊

Damn these new instruments y’all keep making are getting bigger and bigger on my ssd lol 😂
I love prepared pianos😍
This lib sounds so magical!!!
Wow, Got To try this!
very nice walkthrough. NI, please have Mads Mikkelson narrate all your video's from now on !
I love it I'm looking forward to get this ❤
Amazing UI, amazing emotional sounds, amazing inspiration. Noire is the piano library I use the most. Will get this one real soon!
Nice! The pressure is on! I need to save some money and buy myself into the NI ecosystem! Such great products! :)
Hello. It would be incredible if you NI could put the Massive X inside the standalone mode of your last groovebox and use this great synth independently of your computer.
That's one good sounding library for sure. Thought I was done with my recent K13CE purchase...
Incredible!
great work native , keep it. Very intuitive plugins you got. Much love
( Just a request : Please try to bring a midi controller with more than 16 pads or extendable syncing pads for maschine mikro or the maschine , Please, )
Thank you. cheers.
Thanks!
... and noted 😉
@@NativeInstruments Thank you so much NI.. Its gonna be awesome.. u r awesome
so much modulation...woah, you all went overboard with that.
Beautiful Addition.. Superb😍😍
Thank you so much 😀
brillaint again NI, well done!
I just bought Komplete 13 Collector's Edition... and I now I feel that this may make my wallet even lighter... Stunning product, NI!
Wow. Thats stunning. Well done.
Thank you very much!
That GUI. WOAH!
Well my bank is gonna start crying 😂
My GPU is gonna start crying too
I can't wait to modulate the modulator.
5:49 was my favourite
Beautiful.
Noire is the best NI Piano. 🏆🎹
Watch out, strong contender with Piano Colors 👀
And I thought it was only me!! This is a great library and of course I will get it, but it is particularly useful for those who are at intermediate piano level. Noire is a library that pros can manipulate like no other.
Una Corda and The Giant is also great!
Forgive me, but for all the effort you have made, and with a result of 26 Gb, and with a significant CPU and Ram load, I have heard the result in other libraries.
I just got noire this year, and now yall release this. bRuH
I'm going to wait and see if this pops up in the Komplete 14 Ultimate Collector's Edition update.
This is basically Noire on crack. CANT WAIT to get my hands on theses
I'll get during next year summer sale. I skipped this year's sale
I'm surprised the soundboard didn't crack with all those screws
I've never used sauces in my sound design recipes before but it is nice how the motion sauces can be LFO or sequencer patterns.
Feels like we diving a piano universe
There will be a new flood of audiojungle-tracks with this piano :D
Any new piano in the works? still using the giant & Noire at the moment💯
Look forward to getting it next year's sale. Sounds great. Just upgraded my komplete 9 to collectors 13 this year so no more money to spare anytime soon👍👀 next big purchase is gonna be a nice complete orchestra like Albion or something since that's a bigger hole in my library. Will def cop this at some point tho.
Fingers crossed!
Hey. I was going to buy Noire but then I saw this. Is it possible to create sounds like Noire - a "simply" Piano?
wow.. this is masterpiece made by passion for every single f*ck*ing sounds!
Judging by the video it appears that the interface is cpu heavy and not very fast responsive...any testimony about this ?
Marketing guy 1: “how we gonna sell this?”
Marketing guy 2: “how bout that dude with the funny accent”
Sound is Amazing
Love the presenters accent

Question remains, can you wait for Komplete 14 to try Piano Colors? 😎
@@NativeInstruments My heart says no, but my wallet says please 💔
You gotta go for what your heart says 😇
Incredible
Does it work with free kontakt player ?
Thank you.
Yes, it can be loaded via Kontakt 6 Player.
Great Job!
Thank you!
Will that run on Macbook Air M1 chip?
I never imagined in my life I will be able to play the piano with a toilet brush.
Oh you guys are Brilliant & always keep me Amazed. I'm at 13 Ultimate CE But getting this 100%.When is this getting released?
It's already out - check it out here 👉 bit.ly/36kELSf

The audio demo "Newman", used in this video, is just magical. Absolutely love the music. Is there an extended version that we could listen to? Thanks!
Unfortunately not 😢
It's amazing!
Thank you Gregory!
I hope you guys will also make an e-bow / feedback guitar instrument. Take this piano concept to the guitar... maybe do some slides too.
Great suggestion - thank you!
Insightful
Here we go again !
guys is there a komplete 14 coming out soon? i feel it in the air after melted vibes, action strings, east asia and now piano colours.
We don't have any information for K14 quite yet ... but you have time 👀
@@NativeInstruments I see you're keeping it under wraps! Ill be waiting....

💯

You'll definitely need this one 😉

Thank YOU! I guess we'll have to start building our own submarine or spaceship pretty soon 😅
Ooo so like omnisphere
Can anyone help me with this, I can't find the preset for the grand piano. Is it the one labelled ''soft piano'' ?
*pure soft
amazing
