About this Month’s Cover

Thereโ€™s nothing like a piano, except for a painting of one or a sampled one.

This monthโ€™s cover is in the former category, and itโ€™s by Dr. Ulrich Batzdorf. Weโ€™re featuring it because software pianos are the backbone of almost every musicianโ€™s instrument arsenal. They blend perfectly with synths and every other instrument, and the ear never tires of them.

Of course, the ideal is a well-maintained acoustic piano thatโ€™s perfectly in tune, recorded well in a great room. But those are big and expensive caveats, and in fact, most of the excellent plug-in pianos available today have it all over an acoustic piano that falls short in either area.

We have a plenty to say on the subject. Check back often!
