How Retro Piano and iPad helped me in preparation to "real world"
Tell you, how iPad can help acoustic job.Last Saturday night I've played mu first Trio gig after Great Isolation Time. Knowing the place and its not-so-good upright piano and sizes, I lowered my stool, to sit very low, and then I used freshly downloaded Retro Piano, and even lowered the quality of sound. Then I spend some hours with this configuration, went to the place, played, and it worked out! I felt well prepared!

It's still a reasonable piano choice if you dial in the optimal settings... much better than the digital pianos of a few years ago that were severely restricted on RAM and had terrible looping artifacts.
I hit the 44.1K vs 48K sample rate bug when I bought it and assumed the pitch defects were intentional... so I made a track that played on that weirdness. It's playing the rhythm piano role.
The prominent melody is warped by using multiple Rozeta Scalers set to
generate "odd" out of scale notes (like kitten on the keys - minor 2nd cluster fucks) using the lovely Ravenscroft 275 instrument.
Then Retro Piano is in there with some pitch oddities due to my 44.1 sample default... now fixed I believe. But I have one recording for my records. I'm sure there are pitch apps I can use to get this effect. AudioTune might do this, right?
That’s great to hear.
