Creating Realistic Piano Recordings in Sibelius 7.5 Apr 21, 2015

by André van Haren

$3.00

In this guide I will show you how to create a realistic sounding piano recording from a piano score in Sibelius 7.5.
You will finalise the recording by importing the music as an audio file into Logic X (or your own favourite DAW) where you will master and bounce the music to an mp3.

This guide is divided in three chapters:
1)Settings in Sibelius; where you will adjust Sibelius’ default settings and install a virtual piano.
2)Adjusting the Piano Score for Playback; where you will make changes to the tempi, dynamics and add pedal markings.
3)Master and Bounce in Logic X; where you will master and bounce your piano work to an mp3 file.

Soundsets
For the sound playback, I use the Vienna Grand with Overtones piano, a virtual instrument that came the Kompleet 7 package from Native Instruments, but you can choose your own favourite virtual piano.
The piano that comes with the Sibelius Sound library can be used without extra preparation. However, if you plan to use a piano sampled instrument that you bought separately, you need to install a soundset first. To see if there is a soundset available for your sampled piano, have a look here: The Sound set project: www.soundsetproject.com/soundsets/

Please note that this is not a Sibelius or Logic guide (to learn more about these programs, read their manuals and visit the forums on Sibelius.com and LogicPro X). I will therefor leave out the subjects and side tracks that are not related to the subject of this tutorial.
