New in version v5.3: This latest update adds support for the Nord Stage 2 and Nord Electro 3 HP's Long Release feature on all Grand Pianos, Uprights, Electric Pianos and Electric Grands.
All sounds available in several sizes - Extra Large, Large, Medium and Small
The Lrg, Med and Sml sizes share the same amount of velocity layers, and the same number of zones that are mapped across the keyboard. This means that you can rely on a consistent quality in regards to the playability and expressiveness in the basic sound of every piano, no matter which of these sizes you choose to install in your Nord Piano Library compatible unit.
icon Small The Extra Large versions are fully mapped accross the keyboard which increases the size a bit. The velocity layers are the same as on the other sizes.
icon Small The Large versions have String Resonance samples all across the keyboard, providing you with a very full sound.
icon Small The Medium versions have String Resonance samples in the important middle region of the range, but omit these in the lowest and the highest areas. This gives you a good ratio of functionality and size.
icon Small Sml is the version that uses the least amount of space in the piano memory, but still carry a big and powerful punch. This version does not contain any String Resonance samples at all. If an Sml piano is selected in the Nord unit, the String Resonance feature (if applicable) will be disabled.

With the Ribbon, we tried to create a new type of instrument designed for today's musician.
At the same time synth, USB and CV/Gate controller, it can be used in many different ways, as a sole instrument, to control virtual instruments and iOS or to control modular systems and CV/gate devices. With its transparent plexi enclosure, Eowave Ribbon is a modern visual instrument perfect for live applications.
Ribbon has a real sound generation section with one oscillator. The sound will be triggered by the position on the 4 octaves ribbon. The ribbon serigraphy offers a chromatic scale of the 4 octaves. Ribbon is also sensitive to the pressure.
