We wish to pay homage to the instrument that has started many musical careers by sampling it to great depths.
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.
The library also includes other instruments where toy pianos tines have been prepared, played with motor-fan, and other 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.
Many professional toy-piano musicians and film composers prefer Michelsonne pianos because of their sound. Players include Pascal Comelade, Yann Tiersen and Timothée Jolly (wiki).
BONUS
The library also includes other toy-piano experiments and various cinematic toy-piano textures.
