Get ready for a musical revolution! John Legend, the legendary artist, is bringing his iconic piano magic to Splice, and it's a game-changer for music producers worldwide.
The Sound of Legend
Imagine having access to the very essence of John Legend's Grammy-winning masterpiece, "Ordinary People." Well, now you can! Splice, the industry's go-to music production platform, has teamed up with Legend to offer an exclusive plug-in featuring the raw, natural sound of his Yamaha C7 baby grand piano.
But here's where it gets controversial... Splice and Spitfire Audio went the extra mile. They meticulously recreated the exact recording conditions of Legend's original 2004 hit, using the same microphones and signal chain. It's like having John Legend's piano right in your studio!
"Pianos are undefeated," Legend says. "The songs I've recorded with this piano have become an integral part of my artistic identity. I want producers to feel connected to the inspiration behind this sound and create their own unique stories."
A Platform for Icons
Splice Instrument, the platform's virtual instrument hub, already boasts presets from musical giants like Philip Glass and Abe Laboriel Jr. But with Legend on board, it's a whole new level of musical excellence. And the best part? Splice promises more high-profile instrument downloads and AI-powered features in the near future.
"Combining John's artistry with Spitfire Audio's precision and Splice's innovation is powerful," says Splice CEO Kakul Srivastava. "This is a new era in music creation, where creators can collaborate with their inspirations. It's just the beginning!"
As Legend celebrates the 20th anniversary of his debut album, "Get Lifted," this partnership couldn't be more timely. He's currently on tour, performing in Houston tonight, and his piano sound is sure to leave a lasting impression.
"John's piano sound is timeless, rich in soul and emotion," adds Spitfire Audio co-founder Paul Thomson. "Producers will find inspiration in playing with this iconic sound and shaping their stories with the same depth and character. We're excited about the future of Instrument and the features to come!"
