1970s Yamaha U3 Upright, heartwarming tone for $400
My Yamaha U3 H (1976) has recently been regulated and voiced to a more mellow tone. My natural play style is classical, romantic, contemporary, and impressionist. I love learning from the greats and hearing new techniques and patterns bleed into my playing.
I like taking a Glenn Gould studio approach of sorts. Mic placement and polar patterns (my oktava mk12 stereo pair can do omni, cardioid, or hypercardioid) can differ with each project depending on the needs. My service offers one entire piano track for up to and around 4 minutes with 30 seconds leeway.
I offer 5 revisions but I'm flexible on this so long as we're clear on what we're working towards.
In terms of "takes", what I send will be a stitched up ideal performance as per my Glenn Gould inspired approach. This involves multiple takes and editing to make sure it fits with your project and the performance is optimal. This is studio work at the end of the day. I am a very technical pianist yet not ashamed of taking full advantage of the studio setting. While this can be painstaking it is far more rewarding than working with MIDI or digital models/sample libraries in my humble opinion.
