Pedal Noise

What it does

Mechanical noise from the pianist working the pedals is inherent in any piano, although the better the piano is maintained, the less audible the sound.

Example: While using the Player microphone perspective and a Performer Stereo Image, you add some pedal noise to give an even stronger impression of sitting at the bench of the piano.

The Garritan Abbey Road Studios CFX Concert Grand provides you with the ability to add varying amounts of pedal noise to the sound of the piano.

1. Click the Piano button. The Piano view appears.
