Since a good quality musical instrument can be expensive and sooner or later the sound it produces ends up on a computer, various simulation applications give you the possibility to enhance your musical gift from the comfort of your desktop. Pianissimo is one of them and the name speaks for itself.

The application launches in a rather compact window where you find a well designed grand piano along with several audio options. You are not able to resist the temptation of randomly pressing keys to hear the sound they make. Doing so leaves you stunned, because the quality is flawless.

The two pedals can also be put to good use and further enhance the audio experience, as well as the lid which can be set to one of the four levels for the exact pitch. Furthermore, several audio options and sliders let you adjust hammer sounds, reverberation which can range from medium or large hall to a small room.

Near the “Record” button you can find a left and right arm icon. This gives you the possibility to capture sound for each one, while exporting the result as a whole. For careful timing, a metronome is available with the option to set the beats per minute and time signature.

When you consider the masterpiece is ready, you can export it as MP3, OGG, WAVE or VMA to use in various projects, or simply share with your friends.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Pianissimo is a powerful tool that catches you in its magic even if not a music enthusiast. Sound comes out as clean as possible and you are able to save to some of the most commonly used audio formats.
