In contrast to the grand piano, the upright piano is vertically strung and has a vertical soundboard and bridges, as well. The first variant resembling to an upright piano appeared in 1739 and a more modern variant in 1800. Mass production followed as the instrument improved by the addition of an iron frame and a larger octave range. The compact size and affordable price made it increasingly popular for use in many smaller music halls, pubs and private homes. Legendary composers such as Scott Joplin, George Gershwin, Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard all started their music careers on upright pianos.
In the microphones section (Standard and Pro version) you can set the distance to the nearest wall and position microphones and the lid. This new, movable wall was designed exclusively for the U4.
The improved physical model in Pianoteq benefits the U4 by bringing more clarity and authenticity.

Koala Audio were very helpful. The Viking chair fitted together easily, and the many adjustable functions work well. Very well designed, lightweight and will suit my needs as a multi instrument player including Pedal Steel and recording work.
Nice Mic spoiled by needing a physical ilok to use Modelling Software
Nice Mic spoiled by needing a physical ilok to use Modelling Software. Seems absurd. I don't mind using ILok cloud but no, only a physical dongle will work. Very 2004. Not a deal breaker. The mic is fine for the price.
Good product. Straps are already very useful for the rock-n-roller trolley. Imagine they'd be suitable for other trolley/applications too. Wasn't very happy with the service received over the phone, but the product is excellent.
