AEVAL Felt Piano VST Plugin – Organic Cinematic Piano Instrument

– Characterful, raw & beautifully imperfect instruments with a touch of fairy dust –

Dark Fairytale Instruments is a series of virtual instruments meticulously sampled from the personal collection of German composer Oskar Schuster.

« I create my virtual instruments with a focus on organic sound, natural imperfection, and musical character, avoiding the kind of clinical perfection that always made me shy away from sampled instruments as a composer. Instead of emulating polished studio recordings, my goal is to preserve what distinguishes real instruments and bring their inexplicable analog magic and charm into the digital world. »

AEVAL – Felt Piano Plugin VST3 / AU

AEVAL Felt Piano VST interface for cinematic music production

Natural Sound Of A Unique Piano

Sampled from a 64-key Klavins Una Corda piano using high-end Schoeps microphones, this instrument has a rich and natural sonic character, captured through ten round robins, over a thousand key touch and release samples as well as additional resonance layers. Performance noises such as pedal sounds, the creaking of the piano bench, rustling of clothes, and the breathing of the pianist can be added if desired.

Wide Range Of Tonal Possibilities

The interface allows for a wide range of tonal shaping, from soft, intimate or dark felt textures to clear and bright tones.

Cinematic Features

Additional reverse and “dream” layers as well as a soft-attack “bloom” effect make the instrument also well suited for ambient & cinematic territory.

Extended Range

The original 64-key range of the Una Corda (A0–C6) has been extended to 77 keys (C0–E6) for greater musical flexibility.

Presets that sound great immediately

27 presets, carefully crafted by Oskar Schuster, are included.
