It features an easy to use interface that gives you deep control over many mechanical aspects of the real piano as well as microphone selection and mixing plus MIDI response.

The Full patch loads the Close mics by default. Microphone PositionsFour mic setups are included with the Ravenscroft 275 VI and were chosen to meet a variety of tonal choices and are able to mix well together. Repetition Strikes are also included once again. We've also still given you control over all the sampled sympathetic resonance, release volume, pedal noise and other advanced pedaling features. We'll demo these features in an upcoming video. The Ravenscroft also added new features such as Silent Strikes and Muted Notes. It works well for music production as well as composition. A new “Room” microphone position has been added to give users access to additional depth and character. The Ravenscroft virtual instrument features four discrete phase-aligned microphone positions.

More samples, an extra microphone position, extra velocity layers, and new features such as Silent Strikes and Muted Notes elevate the Ravenscroft Model 275 to a whole new level.
