7) Native Instrument – Alicia’s Keys ($99.00).4.) Emotional Piano Player Edition ($149.00).That said, here is a rundown of the best free and paid recommended Kontakt Piano library, I will also give you valuable information about each of the recommended piano library, good luck, and let’s get started… Which you go for doesn’t really matter, however, most people prefer sampling for piano because it imitates the real piano instruments in such a way you would likely tell any differences from the actual instrument, I would argue that a physical modeled are good too, I’ll be writing a review about some of the best physical modeled piano in a future guide. On the other hand, a VST piano can either go by using physical modeling (Model the physical properties of the instrument, and calculate how it’d sound) or synthesizing (This type generates a waveform (Sine, Saw, Square wave, etc.) and combine them, and then routing to the filter section for subtraction and addition of frequency and other effects to result in a distinct waveform that represents the sound that you are imitating. The difference between using a Kontakt Piano Instrument and a VST piano is that Kontakt is a sampler, which means Kontakt Library manufacture can create digital instruments by using audio they’ve recorded (for example, a Kontakt Piano instrument manufacturer would sample the entire note on a physical keyboard for a different level of velocity qualities of attack, and more advance effects to get a similar tone of the real piano instrument, so, in most case, you won’t notice much difference between them).
