Making MIDI Piano Sound REALISTIC!

💥 Watch my FREE Workshop where I cover How I Create PRO Quality Music at Home - and How You CAN TOO here: In this video, I’m covering how to get realistic sounding MIDI pianos. The key to getting realistic sounding piano comes down to using sustain pedal and getting velocities set to be dynamic. Without those two elements, you’ll be stuck with crappy sounding MIDI pianos, no matter good the sample libraries are.
