Kawai-EX Pro 采样库是一架精美绝伦、强劲有力、音色明亮的 9 英尺（276 厘米）KAWAI EX 音乐会三角钢琴，曾位于华盛顿特区的肯尼迪中心。
我们与 Lance Herring 密切合作，共同打造了这个采样库（这是继 AcademicGrand 之后我们第二次尝试），并决定赋予项目新的维度。我们用 3 对麦克风和最先进的设备精心录制了这架非凡的乐器，力求重现这架乐器的强劲和精准。

偏好设置
Kawai EX PRO 现已升级到 V3 版本，并包含许多新功能，使其成为市场上功能最齐全的钢琴之一。
每个功能都详细介绍如下，当然，它仍然保留了之前版本的功能，例如释放音量、踏板噪音和琴键噪音。

三个麦克风位置
我们用三个麦克风位置录制了 Kawai EX PRO：
靠近位置：一对麦克风靠近钢琴内部的琴弦，以提供深沉的低音和丰富的共鸣。
演奏者位置：一对麦克风位于钢琴演奏者头部旁边，让您真正感受到身临其境的钢琴演奏体验。
边音位置：一对麦克风位于钢琴侧面，让您更像一位独奏者，拥有钢琴般的演奏视角。
您可以分别启用/禁用、加载/卸载以及混音每个麦克风位置，以获得您想要的精准音色。
每个麦克风都有三个不同的控制按钮：
增益。
开/关：您可以轻松启用或禁用每个麦克风位置。
加载：您可以加载/卸载每个麦克风位置的采样。如果您只使用一个麦克风位置，这可以节省内存。当然，卸载采样后，这些控制按钮会变灰。

共振
当所有琴弦开始共振时，钢琴上的共振会产生某种混响效果。
在钢琴上建模时，有两种重要的共振类型：踏板踩下共振和保持音符之间的共振。 Kawai EX PRO 中同时提供这两种效果，您甚至可以调整每种效果的音量。

重复/半踩
在真正的钢琴上，踏板并非简单的开关，在古典音乐中，人们经常使用重复和半踩。
如果衰减尚未结束，重复功能允许您"重新启动"已用踏板释放的和弦。这尤其适用于混合和弦。
半踩，顾名思义，是指半踩踏板演奏时发生的效果。衰减时间更长，而且由于琴弦没有完全衰减，您会听到一些共鸣。

MIDI 控制
我们在旧版本中添加了一些 MIDI 控制。例如，如果您想使用表情踏板代替常规的开关踏板，可以更改延音和延音 CC。您还可以更改 Midi 曲线、动态和力度响应，从而真正根据您的喜好、键盘和演奏风格调整音色库。

The Kawai-EX Pro sample Library is a fabulous, powerfull and bright 9-foot (276cm) KAWAI EX concert grand piano that used to be in the Kennedy center in Washington DC.
We worked closely with Lance Herring on this library (this is our second attempt after the AcademicGrand) and decided to give our project a new dimension, we carefully recorded this extraordinary instrument with 3 microphone pairs and state of the art Gear to try and recreate how powerfull and precise this instrument can be.

Preferences
The Kawai EX PRO is now in V3 and includes many new features to make it one of the most complete pianos on the market.
Each feature is detailed below and of course it still contains the features of the previous versions like the release volume, pedal noise and key noise.

Three microphone positions
We recorded the Kawai EX PRO with three microphone positions:
The Close position with a pair of microphones close to the strings inside the piano to provide deep bass and rich resonances.
The Player position with a pair of microphones next to the head of the piano player to really get the feeling of being in front of the piano.
The Rim position with a pair of microphones at the side of the piano to give more of a soloist playing with a piano perspective.
You can enable / disable, load / unload and mix each microphone position separately to get exactly the sound you want.
Each microphone has three different controls:
Gain.
On / Off: You can easily enable or disable each microphone position.
Load: You can load / unload the samples of each microphone position. This saves Ram usage if you only use one position. Of course the controls are greyed out when the samples are unloaded.

Resonances
The resonances on a piano give some kind of a reverb effect when all of the strings start resonating.
There are two kinds of resonances that are important to model on a piano, the pedal down resonances and the sympathetic resonances between the held notes. Both these effects are present in the Kawai EX PRO, you can even change the amount of each of them.

Repedaling / Half pedaling
On a real piano, the pedal is not a simple on and off and in classical music, people often use the repedaling and half pedaling.
Repedaling allows you to "restart" a chord that has been released with the pedal if the decay is not ended yet. this is especially used when you want to blend chords together.
Helf Pedaling is as its name implies what happens when you play with the pedal half pressed. the decay is much longer and as the strings are not completely dampened, you hear some resonances.

MIDI controls
We added a few midi controls to the older version. The sostenuto and sustain CC can be changed in case you want for example use an expression pedal instead of a regular on off pedal. You can also change the Midi curve, the dynamics and the velocity response to really adjust the library to your liking, keyboard and playing style.
