The origins of this virtual instrument arise from a pursuit for perfection, the masterfully crafted Ravenscroft© Model 275 Titanium Grand Piano. Made of 1,000 year old sitka spruce wood with solid titanium string termination points and precise, responsive CAD optimized action, the R275 is renowned the world over for it’s breathtaking tone and unmatched versatility. That same quest for perfection inspired the Ravenscroft app development, involving extensive sampling, innovative scripting and meticulous attention to detail. The final result delivers the Ravenscroft’s crystal-clear hammer attacks, staccato release trails and natural resonance in glorious detail. Every nuance has been painstakingly captured to bring you the most authentic piano experience ever on iOS.

Professional Sound Quality

A collaboration between Ravenscroft© Pianos, VI Labs and UVI, this masterpiece was recreated virtually to deliver the most realistic sounding piano on iOS. The original instrument was recorded in high-resolution audio using premium microphones and pristine converters. Combining 100% sample-based sounds with hybrid modeling, Ravenscroft delivers real sympathetic resonance, accurate sustain pedal modeling including re-pedaling support, as well as a true staccato.
