Michelsonne Paris was a French brand of toy piano manufactured from 1939 to 1970
The manufacturer didn’t think their small pianos was a “toy”-piano, so they called them Bell-tone pianos instead. So do we.
We sampled a charming quirky refurbished model with a staggering 15 dynamic layers X 3rr, plus release triggers. There are also mechanical noises and quirks mapped to separate tracks.
It is ‘open’ sounding, recorded with serious mics and easy to blend with other instruments
The library also includes other instruments where toy pianos have been prepared, played with motor-fan, and other sound
treatments.
Vintage Toy Pianos vary greatly in personality. This model has wooden mechanics and custom softened hammers (No ugly sounding plastic). It has a mellow naturalness and full-bodied personality. It was recorded and treated like it was the most valuable Stradivarius for this library.
Many professional toy-piano musicians and film composers prefer Michelsonne pianos because of their beautiful and inimitable sound. Players include Pascal Comelade, Yann Tiersen and Timothée Jolly (wiki)
The library also includes other toy-piano experiments and various cinematic toy-piano textures.
