Vibrant concert grand
The pristine tonal clarity of an exquisite 10ft Italian concert grand piano
Sampled with precision in a stunning recording hall with blendable close and room microphones
Transform each note into ripples of evolving textures with the Particles engine



Compose with clarity
Building on the acclaimed Noire engine with one of the world’s finest and largest grand pianos, Claire delivers a harmonically rich sound, flowing from deep, resonant basses to clear, shimmering overtones. Whether you’re sketching pop ballads or shaping grand cinematic scores, Claire invites you to enjoy each step of the creative process, where every note is full of possibility.

The crown jewel of grand pianos
Claire is meticulously sampled from a world-class Italian concert grand piano known for its unmatched tonal clarity, depth, and power. Its long, extended strings create a deep, cutting bass, while a unique fourth pedal reduces the hammer-blow distance to enable a softer volume without altering timbre.

Flexible sound design
Recorded at the acclaimed Galaxy Hall, Claire offers both close and room microphone setups, which can be seamlessly blended to create anything from intimate tones to expansive ambience. Further shape your sound with color, tonal shift, depth, and richness controls, dialing in mechanical and pedal noises for an authentic performance.

Play with Particles
A much-loved feature from Noire, the Particles engine elevates your sound by adding layers of rippling harmonics, textures, and subtle rhythmic patterns that react to your performance. It transforms each note into an immersive and evolving soundscape, infusing your compositions with emotion and taking them in fresh, creative directions.

Pianoteq has replaced about 30 piano libraries for me. For Kontakt, I still keep Noire, Corda, and Piano Colors. I have Keyscape too. That combo with some choice fx does the job of 10000 piano libaries.

Have you supplied your Pianoteq to R2R?

this is definitely the most convincing sounding software grand I came across in 30 years – thank you very much HiDERA!

maybe it's just bad recording on the demo video but this thing sounds very dull and somewhat electronic sounding... If all the different segments of the video are supposed to be different presets they pretty much all sound the same...

Using Bobdule's 8.0.1 version of Kontakt, I add this via the library button, it says it has registered the library...but no joy. Using Studio One 7. Any one else having this issue?
  Member 19.09.2016 77

EDIT: Sorted. I misread the requirements. This library will only work with 8.1, not 8.01.

Required the newest kontakt on my end (Sonoma m2) loaded with KLU and no problems. Sounds great.

So what's the verdict folks? IS THIS ONE going to be a Omnisphere, KeyScape, Arturia, Pianoverse, PianoTeq Killer?

Or is it destined to end up just another "very nice" 30GB kontakt piano lib?

I have almost every vst piano that has been shared here and this is definitely in the top 5 - VERY recommended!

Keyscape is still the best, and I say that without even trying the others.

Ahhh that C7 from keyscape is just amazing. But you should try Noire, Arturia Augmented Piano and virtual pianist from Ujam. Brings differents things to the table. I think this Italian grand "Claire" is a Fazioli and it is truly marvelous! It really feels like if Noire and that C7 had a baby this would be it. Particle mode is just crazy. (For anyone wondering this would not work on the Kontakt 8 version i had until i updated it to the last version)

I'd love to see a sampled Steinway. Anyways Thanks uploader
