Pianoteq U4 Upright U4 Upright Piano add-on for Pianoteq [Virtual]

The U4 emphasizes the characteristics of upright pianos, offering 21 exciting presets demonstrating the instrument's versatility. Along with the beautiful timbre of well-built acoustic pianos, higher inharmonicity and increased imperfections can be heard in the presets such as Honkytonk, Vintage, Detuned, Ruined, Bierkeller, Tacky, Wavy, Weathered, and more.

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 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.
