Black Pearl B200 $39.99

A versatile Vienna Concert grand

Expressive character for any musical style Black Pearl B200 is based on a 7’ Bösendorfer 214VC Vienna Concert grand, a versatile instrument with a balanced, rich sound and expressive dynamics. Its contemporary character makes it equally suited to classical performances, modern productions and creative sound design. Recorded at Fonoprint Studios in Bologna, the piano was captured with DPA cardioid microphones up close and DPA Omni microphones at medium distance using an A-B configuration. Robot-assisted deep multisampling preserves the detail and dynamic response of the original instrument.

TECH
About

The Bösendorfer 214VC retains many features of the larger Bösendorfer Concert Grand 280VC but is more refined and better balanced. Due to its compact size, the 214VC has become the choice of many recording studios, music chambers and smaller venues worldwide.

Black Pearl B200 is unique, expanding Pianoverse with its own voice. More than just a piano, its inviting, not-overwhelming sound will pull you in and is an excellent tool for creative expression. It’s equally at home in classical and contemporary genres.

On this concert grand, we used DPA cardioid microphones for close miking and DPA Omni microphones for medium-distance with an A-B miking technique to record this spectacular piano at the legendary Fonoprint Studios in Bologna, Italy, within the walls of a 15th-century convent. The Black Pearl B200 is an ideal platform for exploring the exciting soundscapes and cinematic effects found only in Pianoverse, promising a new sonic adventure every time.
